St John Ogilvie Primary School

Good Afternoon Primary 7

Hope you have been feeling inspired during your writing lesson this morning! We can’t wait to read the exciting next chapters that you have been writing.

This afternoon we are going to be doing a bit of science, looking at how important looking after our plant – particularly important today on ‘World Earth Day’

To start with why not take a breath taking (virtual) tour of some of the world’s most beautiful natural attractions. Travel from the Great Barrier Reef, to the icebergs of Alaska, to the volcanoes of Hawaii learning all about what we can do to protect these.

Which of these attractions did you find the most interesting? Why do you think it is important to try and save the places included in the video? Write a short summary about one of the places you studied and what you have learned about it.

If you are able to take a (social distanced) walk with an adult why don’t you look around and see what local plants of wildlife you can see. With permission you could snap a few pictures and then research when you get home to find out the name of the plants and animals. Perhaps you could design an informative poster showing your findings.

If you are unable to get out a walk then the following website will give you lots on information about plants and animals native to Scotland

Your task for music today is to learn the Canadian Anthem. In English and French!  This website has the lyrics in both languages and a audio file on the page that has the tune.

You can listen to the anthem here first:

And then sing along to the instrumental track that has the lyrics here:

If you like you could record yourself and post it to your Personal Learning Blog

Just a heads up Primary 7, we will not be posting at 9.15 on Friday morning, instead Mr McGurn and I will both be available to our own classes for a chat. If you log on to your own Team there will be the opportunity to join the chat and say hello to your friends and to us. Work will then be posted after the chat has ended.

Good Afternoon Primary 3!

Good afternoon P2!

I hope you enjoyed our morning activities.  Don’t forget that you can upload your work to your online learning journal – or simply to upload a picture of you enjoying the sunshine and a message to let us know how you are!  You can also ask us any questions that you might have.  It has been lovely to see some pictures of your smiling faces to cheer us up – especially those that have lost some teeth since we last saw you and have been able to share their big gappy grins!

Today is our big topic afternoon and you have some research and an art activity to keep you busy.  We are looking at the fantastic minibeast – the ant!  These fascinating little creatures are quite amazing and so much fun to find out about.

Wednesday 22^nd April 2020

Good Morning P4! I hope you all had a relaxing Easter break with your families and you are all safe and well.

Here are some tasks for you to work through this morning:

Mental Challenge

My answer is 47. What could my questions be?
List 8 questions (Using +, -, x and /)

Literacy

Today, we are going to look at Rhyme. A rhyme is when words have a same or similar ending sound, such as boat, moat, throat and coat. When you are trying to figure out if two words rhyme, say it to yourself to see if they sound the same.

-Read the poem ‘Children of the World Today’. What two things do you notice about the poem? Write a list of rhyming word pairs.

-Draw 4 ‘rhyming trees’ each with 5 branches. Using the words home, work, play and eat can you fill each branch with a rhyming word. Try and do this yourself, however if you struggle to think of your own, use Google to look up some ideas. You will use these rhyming trees tomorrow for your writing task, so keep them somewhere safe.

Maths

This term we are going to be learning about Money. Today I want us to think about the use of decimal points when talking about pounds. Look at the Money PPT and complete the ‘Convert Pence to Pound’ sheet. You can complete this in a jotter or on paper.

Good Morning Primary 2,

I hope you are all well and have been managing to enjoy some time outside in the beautiful sunshine.  We have been watching all the little birds in the garden this morning.   We have seen robins, bluetits, magpies, starlings and pigeons.  You should have a look and see what wildlife you can see.  If you open your window or door, you might even be able to hear the birdsong.

Here are your tasks for today:
