Mrs Keegan and Mrs Caskie’s Daily Update 5.6.20

Good morning boys and girls and Happy Friday. It is Mrs Docherty online for you this morning. 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 Docherty

Mrs Docherty Health and Wellbeing Happiness Day 3: 4.6.20

Good morning everyone. Day 3 and we are continuing our happiness activities today with our final set of activities to do as a family. These will build upon our previous activities and will help us to focus on what and who is important to us and for us. In previous posts I’ve spoken about self-esteem and also sleep and our two activities today will link with these.

 

Our first activity today is to WAYS TO BE RESILIENT:

We have spoken about being resilient and how to support your child with this. One of our key messages was to speak with someone and to ask for help. Below is a little poster to help you have discussions with your child and some ideas on how to support your child if they are anxious or worried. I’ve also included the link below so you can print off the poster as part of your pack.

Our final activity for this week is: HAPPY SLEEP HABITS

Sleep has been an important theme for us in lockdown and we have shared many wonderful resources from Sleep Scotland. Today’s tips support your child in achieving a good night’s sleep and a Happy Sleep. This in turn will lead to Happiness.

As always thank you for taking part and sharing in our positivity blog posts and in particular our Week of Happiness.

We will finish the week tomorrow with our Positive Quote of the week.

Have a great day,

Mrs Docherty

Nursery Right of the Week: 2.6.20

Good morning everyone,

We are continuing with our weekly right from Mrs Conway as part of our Right’s Respecting Journey. This week’s Right is Article 15: You have the Right to join groups.

Particularly at this time it is important more than ever to stay in touch with people so the activities this week are linked to Friendships, our Nursery family and any groups your child may be part of. They are activities to support your child in recognising the friends who are important to them and our Nursery values and motto.

Click on the link below and enjoy taking part in the activities with your child. Remember you can share these via the blog in the comments section or on your child’s online journal where you can upload pictures.
