P1 learning activities-Friday 15th May

Happy Friday!

We would like you to continue working on your People Who Help Us project this morning and email pictures or video clips so that we can see who you chose to find out about, school email: wluphall-ps@westlothian.org.uk

 

Feedback Friday: Talk about what you’ve learned about this week, what went well, what did you find tricky and how did you overcome this, did you learn a new skill?

Use your knowledge of numbers to 100 to place the balls in the correct position in the hundred square-it’s tricky at first but does get easier when you start to recognise the number patterns (e.g. all of the tens numbers are in the same column)

Good morning once again to you all. We would like you to continue working on your People Who Help Us project today. No photo description available.

Can you guess who is wearing the paramedic uniform?

Maths: continue to explore capacity

measuring capacity at home

(These sheets do not all need to be completed at once, you might find it easier to do one today, one tomorrow and one on Friday).

Mrs Grenfell has provided a PE task for you, you might still be working on your skipping. Miss Mackay are you still working on yours?!

Keep us updated, we love to hear what you’re up to and what you’re enjoying.

Primary 1 learning activities-Monday 11th May

Good morning, we hope you’ve all had a lovely weekend. Our activities for you this week are slightly different. We would like you to spend this week working on a personal project to help you find out more about people who help us. Mrs McKay knows from past experience just how heavy the fire fighters uniform is!

It would be great if you could share your learning with us by Friday, we look forward to seeing what you create.

Continue to investigate capacity and volume in maths:

estimating volume and capacity

PE-Try to get outside if you can or use one of our suggested sites. This term we would be preparing for sports day, trying to build up your fitness and stamina. We would also be helping you learn to skip. If you have a skipping rope see how many times you can skip without the rope catching on your body. You might find it tricky but keep trying. Let us know what your best score is by commenting on the blog.

Miss Mackay-are you up for a skipping challenge?!
