Story time with Miss Arnot

Hello P2/3,

I was looking through my books this morning and I found one of our class favourites! I really miss reading stories with you all.

Happy listening!

Numeracy for P4-5 & P5: Wednesday 29th April

This week we have been learning about measuring lengths, in particular we are learning about perimeter.

Perimeter is the total distance around a 2D shape.

We measure the perimeter of a 2D shape by adding together the length of all of its sides. Let’s look at an example:

To work out the perimeter of this shape, we need to add together all the sides: 7+3+7+3 = 20. So, the perimeter of this shape is 20.

This video is useful to help explain perimeter:

Remember you are working on p67-70 of the SPMG textbook, the pages at the bottom of the weekly plan.

Well done to everyone who had a go at this week’s spelling challenge. Here are the answers. Lots of you got them right! And yes, it was me that ate all the fruit pastilles! (You all know me very well!)

I have posted a wee video on the school Twitter page that might help you if you are stuck with the Maths activity on your HL grid. (textbook pg 36).

And check your email tomorrow because I will be sending the next 2 chapters of storytime for you to listen to!

Tuesday 28 April -P3

Good morning everyone.

Here are the photos for this week’s spelling challenge. Can you guess which word I have chosen from each list? I have used Smarties eggs to make the words this time. I couldn’t use fruit pastilles because “something” happened to them….can you guess what happened???

Look out for the answers to the spelling challenge tomorrow.

Monday 27 April – P3

Good morning everyone! I hope you had a great weekend. I certainly enjoyed how sunny it was!

Thank you to everyone who got on touch last week to share their learning or say hello. I had lots of emails, photos and some posts on Twitter. It was so nice to see and hear how you are all getting on. Keep those emails and posts coming please as it is a great way of keeping in touch. Remember you don’t have to share your learning, you can just email to say hi and let me know how you are doing. Email is admin@roseburn.edin.sch.uk

Attached to this post are the following things – HL grid for this week and spelling words. You can also check Twitter to see what my “guess the ingredients” challenge is for this week. And don’t forget to look out for tomorrow’s spelling challenge and the next 2 chapters of our story time later in the week.

Have a good day,

Miss Fraser 🙂

P1 Home Learning

27.04.20 – 01.05.20

This week our theme for learning is your sense of smell. This is the first sense we develop – even before we are born! Sometimes when we catch a familiar scent, it can remind us of other times, people and places we have experienced. Try to be more conscious of all the different smells and aromas around you. Both Miss White and Mrs Thirgood said their favourite smell is freshly brewed coffee and Mrs Denvir chose the smell of freshly cut grass! What is your favourite smell?

Here is this week’s learning overview. If this doesn’t work for you, you could consider putting together a mini project on the 5 different senses, in any creative way you choose. As always, we will give you more guidance on the Literacy & Numeracy throughout the week.

We look forward to seeing your Journal updates. Have a wonderful weekend!

Primary 1 have blown us away with their home learning efforts this week. We have had children practising their writing, learning to tell the time, doing science experiments and thinking about the sense of smell, to name just a few activities. Thank you so much for updating your Journals – we really love it when you share your activities with us. And please remember, the activities we send to you are just our suggestions of the types of things you might like to try – only you will know what will work for you at home.

We miss you all dearly! Take care.
