Primary 7 Friday 5th June

Good Morning Primary 7, another week over and I know Transition has now started for everyone at St. Margaret’s, Deans and Inveralmond – you are all so close to being big S1’s now. Well, wee S1’s as you’re now going to be the youngest in your new schools!  PE and RE this morning and then you can enjoy your weekend with traditional Scottish Summer weather.  Looking ahead and next weekend might be nice again – fingers crossed.

Today’s PE Work:

Final day of the Virtual Sports Fortnight activity so here is the link. Which House is going to win? Remember to share your results by e-mailing a video to the school e-mail address.

Today’s RE Work:

The Apostles’ Creed is really important to Catholics, it’s a prayer we say very Sunday at Mass and we used it last week in the Rosary.  It states the important beliefs of our faith. Here is a bit more information about it – read this and see if you already knew some of these things

The Meaning Of The Apostles’ Creed

So this prayer deals with the Blessed Trinity. The belief in three persons in one God.  It is not an easy concept to grasp but is a hugely important part of our faith.

APOSTLES CREED – Easier to read pdf version

Try writing out the Apostles’ Creed in your fanciest joined handwriting like above and use a different colour for mentions of God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit.

We finish with a video with visuals which might help you remember it.

Have a great weekend Primary 7, stay safe.

P1 5.6.20 Post

Good morning everyone!  I hope you have enjoyed your learning this week.  Remember to look out for some super examples of home learning later on the Blog.  I hope you have a lovely weekend.

Parent request:  Next week we are going to be learning about the story ‘The Gingerbread Man’.  A task set on Tuesday will involve the use of flour and salt and a task set on Wednesday will require a bulb of ginger.  If you were able to get any of these in your next supermarket shop if you don’t already have them at home that would be super.  If not then do not worry as alternative tasks will be given.

Good morning P6.  I hope that you have all had a good week.  Here are your tasks for today:

Task 1 – Health and Wellbeing

We are going to learn a little about food allergies.  Have a look at the powerpoint and then complete the worksheets.  Remember you do not have to print the worksheets to do the task.

Food allergies Powerpoint

Food label investigation activity.

Unpleasant reactions to food worksheet

Task 2  RME

We are going to explore the Nicene Creed.  This is the version of the Creed which is said at mass most of the time.  Have a look at the explanation of the creed, then read the prayer.  There are 2 worksheets to complete as part of the attachment.  Worksheet 1 asks you to stick down pictures but I am happy for you to draw images instead.  Worksheet 2 is a crossword.  If you are not using the sheets to do the task, you can write the crossword answer words down by listing the “across” answers and then the “down” answers.

Primary 7 Afternoon Activities 4.6.20

Good Afternoon Primary 7,

I hope you are all well and looking forward to finding out more about your transition to high school in the coming days and weeks.  Please don’t worry if you can’t complete your afternoon tasks because you are busy with transition work, that’s absolutely fine.

Here is the link to today’s Virtual Sports Fortnight activity set by Mrs Lafferty.  Remember to share your results by e-mailing a video to the school e-mail address.

https://blogs.glowscotland.org.uk/wl/stjohnogilvieprimary/2020/06/04/virtual-sports-fortnight-day-9-toilet-paper-games/

Your art task for this week continues to focus on improving your health and wellbeing.  I hope that you all found the doodling task last week to be relaxing, it was great to see all the different ideas you came up with.  This week we are going to be doing some colouring in.  Many of you may think that colouring in is for younger children, however it has many proven health benefits for older children and even for adults.  These include, helping to lift your mood, decreasing anxiety and stress levels and distracting from negative thoughts and worries.  I have attached some mindfulness colouring in pages for you to give a try:

Mindfulness-Positivity-colouring-pack

Words-of-Encouragement-Mindfulness-Colouring-Sheets

There are many other colouring pages online so feel free to choose a different one.  If you don’t have access to a printer, you may have some colouring books in your house or you could even do some more doodling and colour it in.  Alternatively, why don’t you try and think of something else that helps you to relax and reduces your stress levels.  For example, you may like to read a book, listen to music or write a diary entry.

Mrs McLaughlin has an online meeting to attend tomorrow morning therefore I will be setting up the teams catch up.  I will start the meeting at 10am.  I look forward to speaking to you all then.

Have a lovely relaxing afternoon.

 

Mrs Craig

Good afternoon P4a.

Here are your afternoon tasks:

Task 1- Health- World Environment Day 

Tomorrow is World Environment Day. World Environment Day (WED) is an international day of environmental awareness and action that happens on 5th June each year. The theme for World Environment Day this year is biodiversity.

What does biodiversity mean?

Biodiversity is a compound word. Bio is a Greek word. It means life.  Diversity means many different kinds. So biodiversity means many different kinds of life.
