Good morning everyone,

We hope you are all well and managing to work from home. It has been busy here at St Ninian’s PS as we are opening for children whose parents are key workers and providing free school meals to those who need it.

It has been great to hear about how your learning is going at home via the blog, Teams and Twitter. We are all very proud of you, it is great to see how you are all showing resilience and supporting one another in your classes and families.

Remember to take time to have fun as a family and make special memories.

Mrs Smith and I will be posting daily and your teachers are all very busy responding to your emails and Teams files.

Have a good day everyone, and we will keep in contact!

Mrs Smith and Mrs Roy

Home Learning Grid

How are you getting on with the addition and subtraction questions in the numeracy part of the home learning grid? If you completed the easier questions, why don’t you try the more challenging problems too? When completing the more challenging activities try putting the bigger number in your head and counting on or back. If you write a number round the wrong way, have a go at writing the number the right 5 times.

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.
