Mrs Docherty HWB: Key Messages for our Children Awareness day 2 10.6.20

Good morning everyone,

I hope you enjoyed yesterday’s post about ACCEPTANCE. This week and next I will be continuing to share positive and powerful messages for our children and today’s theme is AWARENESS

I have also added a link where you can download the poster as part of the pack over the coming days if you would like to display these.

I love this message and especially at this time. Since lockdown I have shared many posts about stopping and thinking about all the wonderful things we have around us. I know that I have certainly taken time in life to stop and listen, to think and to reflect about what is important to me. When doing this I have been able to hear things that we would not normally take time to hear such as the sounds of nature the birds singing and the calmness all around.

I have also been able to appreciate the power of music and taken time to slow things down and appreciate quiet moments.

Ways to live life mindfully include:

Using your senses
Looking for changes in your everyday things and daily walks
Practice your breathing

Have a great day everyone and take time to listen and hear everything going on around you,

Mrs Docherty

Mrs Docherty HWB Key Messages for our Children: Day 1 9.6.20

Good morning everyone,

The theme for this week is counting on each other. For my blog posts this week I will be looking at providing your children with a key theme and poster to help motivate them and to support them to recognise things they can do to help others and also support their own wellbeing.

A great website to support this is Action for Happiness where there are super ideas and messages of hope, some of which I have been sharing with you over the past few weeks.

Today’s first theme is Acceptance:

I have also added a link below in green where you can download the poster as part of the pack over the coming days if you would like to display these.

In school we always talk about what makes us special and that each and every one of us in the St Ninian’s family bring their own unique talent and skills to help make our school great. These are celebrated at Assemblies, through our committees and of course through our day to day learning.

We are looking forward to everyone returning and sharing their special talents and skills with us again because they are what makes each and every one of you, you, and makes you a special part of the bigger St Ninian’s picture.

Boys and girls, keep being you, you are special in every way.

Your grid has lots of lovely and exciting Health and Wellbeing tasks. I love the Fruit Kebab task. I am going to make mine today for lunch.

On mine I will have Kiwi, Mango, Strawberries, Melon and Pineapple. These are my favourite fruits.

As part of her Health and Wellbeing posts Mrs Docherty has posted a song for the week. It is a message about working together and supporting each other when we need it. It is a song I know you will recognise and love as we use it lots at our assemblies. It is Bruno Mars: Count on Me.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yc6T9iY9SOU

Can you listen to the song using the link above and think of someone who has really helped you during lockdown.

Can you think of a nice way to say thank you to them:

You could write a thank you note
You could create a poster for them
You could make up a special quote for them like the one below. To help with this you could also use the words of the song.

Let’s get creative and remember to share your thank you message on your One Note Profile.

Exciting news coming. Teams is being launched for P3 on Thursday. Look out for a message on the school app.

Have a great day everyone

Mrs Docherty Positive Song for the Week: 8.6.20

Good morning everyone. As we start a new week of online learning I hope you have managed to have a lovely weekend with your families. One of my favourite things is deciding what song suits who we are as a school and as a team. We are a very special team made up of you as parents, our staff, and of course and most importantly your children.

One song that immediately came to mind was Bruno Mars: Count on Me. If ever there was a song that applied to who we all are at St Ninian’s it is this song. Please have a listen I’m sure you’ll agree:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yc6T9iY9SOU

Just like the quote above the words of the song absolutely ring true:

Find out what we’re made of
When we are called to help our friends in need

You can count on me like one two three
I’ll be there
And I know when I need it I can count on you like four three two
You’ll be there
‘Cause that’s what friends are supposed to do, oh yeah

We have certainly found out what we are all made of during this time. We have been there for each other, counted on each other and showed trust and respect towards each other. This has been evident from the amazing work shared, the messages of support and the touching base asking how are you, and how are you getting on that have been permanent fixtures of our connectedness.

All done with a real sense of compassion and care. What a team St Ninian’s, we are certainly NUMBER 1!!!

Have a great day everyone full of care and compassion,

Mrs Docherty

Mrs Wassell’s P3 Daily update 5.6.20

Good morning girls and Happy Friday. I can’t believe we are at the end of another week already and you are all doing so well. I really hope you have had a good week even though the sunshine decided to go on a little holiday this week.

To start today I have included the link below for Peep and the Big Wide World: The Many Moons of Quack the duck.

http://peepandthebigwideworld.com/en/kids/videos/144/the-many-moons-of-quack-the-duck/

Can you learn anything about the moon from this little science programme? Who do you agree with?

As it is Friday we will spend today reviewing our learning and sharing our successes.

In Reading how did you get on with your reading for meaning. Were you able to find the answers and use information form the text to support your answers. Were there any questions that you had to use clues from the text to help you answer. Please use the answer sheet at the end of the pack to help you assess how you did.

In Writing please get a pink and green pencil or pen to help you identify your Success Criteria. Did you

Include paragraphs to separate your ideas
Use your senses to describe in more detail your walk
Did you use exciting openers to engage your reader?
If you did all of these can you please highlight all of your successes in pink and look for any areas you could improve by highlighting in green.
Remember to share your self- assessment of your writing on your One Note Profile.

Were you able to make equal groups using the 2 ,3, 4, 5 and even 10 times tables?

How did you do this? Did you make arrays or did you have another pictorial or concrete way to do this? You can share this on your One Note.

Using your fist to five share on your one note profile how you feel about sharing equally and how well you are doing with your times tables knowledge.

Have a great weekend everyone and please have fun. Remember to log back on for your new learning grid for next week.

Stay safe everyone,

Mrs Wassell
