Friday 3rd April 2020

HAPPY FRIDAY FOLKS! Mrs McGill here. I just wanted to say a huge thank you to everyone at home for all their hard work and continuous effort. Myself and Mr Higgins are loving the photos and emails that we are receiving showing us what you have all been up to; they really do make us smile   Today's learning is: 

English: 

Normally on Fridays we would have our spelling test, but this Friday I would like you to use your spellings you were given in your organiser before we broke up and put them into sentences. Remember to always use your best handwriting. Could anyone use an adverb within one of their sentences? Or an exciting piece of punctuation, i.e. ! or ? 

If you do not have the spellings for whatever reason try and use any previous week's spelling patterns that you found tricky. 

Maths:

From your Parent/Carers feedback I know a lot of you have enjoyed playing a range of maths games so below is a link to a fantastic website full of super maths games. Choose a game and enjoy it!

Extra Activity:

Mr Graham mentioned in an email to your adult that he had put up a link to this year's Easter service and some of our favourite Easter songs please have a read through it and pick your favourite song to sing. From myself and Mr Higgins have a lovely Easter break... And enjoy the chocolate treats!

Good morning everyone, first of all my apologies for the wrong link on the reading activity yesterday thanks to those who spotted it.  Just a quick reminder that Mrs McGill will be answering emails on Fridays, now on with the activities!

English

I’ve really missed reading your amazing poems, so this week I’d like you to create me a calligram about anything you want.  (Grown ups, a calligram is also called a shape poem, it’s where the the poem is shaped like the noun it is describing, I’ve attached a powerpoint as a reminder)
