P4B AM Thursday 30th April

Good morning P4! This morning’s tasks are:

Mental Challenge

How many squares are there?

Writing

Yesterday we looked at Onamatopoeia, which are words that sound like the sound it makes, for example bang or whoosh.

We are going to use some of the words you came up with yesterday to write a poem about the sounds we hear at home.

For example, Pop went the toast onto a plate.

I have included a couple of example poems and also a list of useful onomatopoeia words.

I am looking for correctly structured sentences, use of onomatopoeia and Wow vocabulary.

Poem examples

Maths

Today, we are going to use our knowledge of money and addition of money to plan a post lock down party for you and 12 friends. I have uploaded a Party Planner Sheet and a Party Item sheet. You have a certain amount of money to spend. Plan carefully. You may use a calculator for this task.

Primary 6 Morning Tasks 30-04-20

Good morning everyone !  I hope you are ready for another day of learning ! We are going to do some literacy and numeracy this morning.

Numeracy The number of the day is 456 891 !

We are going to build on our knowledge of using the grid method for multiplication and learn  to multiply by 2 digit numbers. The method is exactly the same and  the PowerPoint  gives you lots of examples and help. You can choose to complete a mild, spicy or hot worksheet. I have attached an extra mild worksheet for anyone who does not feel ready to multiply by two numbers just yet. However if you feel like challenging yourself today then try the ” hot” worksheet which requires you to multiply a four digit number by a 2 digit number. Have fun and remember to present all your work neatly and upload it to your personal learning profile when completed.

Mild 2 digit by 1 digit

Create your own questions based on the passage and ask a family member to answer them !

P5B Wellbeing Wednesday PM

Good Afternoon.

Introducing our new Wellbeing Wednesday characters…

​​​​​​​

… Mental Health Heroes. We will need a new snappy name as they aren’t mindful monsters anymore. Let me know in the TEAMS chat.

Week 1 is Professor Pinwheel and he believes in the power of deep breathing and focusing your mind when you feel overwhelmed. There is the journal task, the mindful colouring and a task card. But this term also has character cards. They will use a lot of ink to print, so I suggest you look at them and maybe create your own or only print the page with the characters and text rather than the back page.

WW Journal summer wk 1                                     WW Summer Character cards wk 1 WW summer colour wk 1                                        WW summer task card wk 1

Our second wednesday task is our John Muir Award.

Here is a task chart. Please choose ONLY one task this week. Please remember to upload your work to the PLB and put John Muir as the title.

If you think of anything else then feel free to share your ideas.

Have fun
