Good morning,

I hope you are all getting on well with the weekly grid this week. I have attached the grid below to help you access this. Here are some further activities/suggestions to extend and deepen your learning today.

Learning Grid Week 2

How are you getting on with making a rocket? I made my one yesterday! Here is a list of the items I used when I made it:

Large cardboard box

Yoghurt cartons

Coloured paper

Sticky Tape

Paint

One way to write a list is when you write items one underneath the other.

Have a go at writing your own list, it could be about your rocket too or about anything you have made/built.

I decided to write a set of instructions for my favourite sandwich but I think I have made a few mistakes, can you spot them?

1. first get two slices of bread and put butter on one side.
2. Next grate some chese and put it on the bread
3. Then carefully cut the sandwich in half.
4. Finally injoy your cheese sandwich.

CLUE – There is one missing capital letter, one missing full stop and two spelling errors

Here is a link to a pictograph interactive game.

When you open the link click on the option of either Vertical or Horizontal unit = 1.  This way each picture on the graph represents 1.

You can then choose from How many?, How many More….than…? and How many fewer… than…?

Good luck.

Good morning! How are you getting on with creating a dance routine to your favourite song? Feel free to post what song you chose in the comments.

If you are having any difficulty with any of the home learning activities please remember to ask your question in the comments section below. We will try to answer your question as soon as we are able to.

Both your reading and writing tasks this week are about the Gruffalo.  The following link will take you to a video of The Gruffalo’s Child being read.

This is the follow up story to The Gruffalo.  Comparing the two stories together have a chat with someone at home and tell them what is similar about the stories and what is different.

Primary 2 have learned to skip count in 2s. Below is a link to a 100 square and you can ‘splat’ numbers on it. Splat all the numbers in the 2 times table up to 20. For an extra challenge, can you go higher than 20? You can try this with the 10 or 5 times table too.

To extend you learning about pictographs or pictograms use this link below to an interactive game from Topmarks.

https://www.topmarks.co.uk/Flash.aspx?f=pictograms

When you open the link click on the option of either Vertical or Horizontal unit = 1.  This way each picture on the graph represents 1.

You can then choose from How many?, How many More….than…? and How many fewer… than…?

Think about all the different numeracy skills you have to use when working out information from a graph.

Good luck.

Learning Grid Week 2

Spelling Activity Suggestions

Good morning everyone,

please find below some additional tasks and activities I have for you today (including a Sumdog challenge!).

As always, please remember that if you would like to share anything with me or want to ask a question or just to say hello you can use the comment section below or use the school office email address.

Home Learning Grid

How are you getting on with your RE task? Have you learned something new about the Feast of Annunciation?

Literacy

Let’s look more at spelling. Ck or k.  Watch this youtube video explanation about when to use ck or k.

In the video it talks about weak vowels that need protecting so these need ck, we usually describe the vowel as saying its short sound (like e in bed) and if there are two vowels together which do not need protecting they are making the long sound (like ee in sheep).

Are there any words that are not on the lists that you can think of that end with the k sound, can you work out if they need just k or ck.

Numeracy

I have set up a Sumdog Challenge for all of you. It focuses measure, shape and fractions (1/2 and 1/4), can you earn 50 coins?  Remember when you log on to look for the challenge. Good luck!

 

 

 

Good Morning Primary 3.

Hope you are all well and have managed to access the weekly home learning grid. We have posted it again below for easy access.

Home Learning Grid Week 2 P3

How are you getting on with your reading task of finding your favourite characters and using adjectives to describe them? Remember to think of WOW adjectives and for a challenge you can do more than 5.

If you are having any difficulty with any of the home learning activities please remember to ask your question in the comments section below. We will try to answer your question as soon as we are able to.

Literacy

As we are looking at adjectives this week have a look at this link below and it will take you to a story about a sea cave. You will be able to then choose exciting adjectives and also nouns to make your story super exciting. Let us know how you get on in either the comments box or on your one note profiles. Remember nouns are the name of something or someone and adjectives are describing words.

How are you getting on with learning the ‘y’ sound? Have you been practising writing this sound? Make sure you keep the tummy on the line and the tail underneath when writing this sound. It should be like a ‘u’ to begin with and include smooth curved lines, not pointy lines. This image shows you start and end points to help.

Today we are focusing on counting in 2’s (skip counting). This is an excellent strategy to use to count quickly and we had started to learn about this as a number talks strategy when we were in school. I know that you all loved this counting in 2’s video:

Here is a trickier counting by 2’s song which goes all the way to 100!

I have attached 2 different counting by 2’s worksheets below. If you have a printer at home you may wish to print these out and complete or you could ask an adult to copy into your jotter. One of these worksheets counts in 2’s to 20 and another beyond 60!

Counting in 2’s to 20

Counting in 2’s past 60

Enjoy and good luck!

Have a lovely day P1 and I’m looking forward to seeing how you are getting on with the extra activities today.
