Welcome to our website
Good morning!
Here are Primary 1’s home learning tasks for today. At story time you could look at this Percy the Parkeeper story that we have read in class.
Have a lovely day and I look forward to seeing you soon!
Mrs Peoples 😊
Please remember school is CLOSED Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday this week due to strike action.
All children today took home learning folders home containing their reading book, homework diary, ten frame, dice and numeral cards along with some worksheets to help with sound revision.
We have created this suggested timetable of how you may wish to plan your day. And will post each day’s work in the morning along with links to stories and other things you may need. We look forward to seeing all the children back with us on Friday,
Mrs Peoples and Mrs Speedie 😊
Our star of the week this morning went to Emma! This was for trying so hard with her learning and showing respect by listening to grown ups. Well done Emma!
On Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, school will be closed. This is due to strikes by UNISON members.
As teachers are not part of these strikes, home learning will be posted each day on your class blog at 9:00.
Below is a document explaining the format of each day.
We have aimed to support pupil routine by creating a timetable very similar to our school day. We hope by being consistent across the school, this will support families whom may be working together or sharing resources.
We look forward to welcoming you back to school on Friday, when pupils can share the learning that has been completed at home and we can celebrate their achievements.
thank you for popping in! Before we start our new
MENTAL AGILITY
focus we were keen to show you how hard we worked on
across the school:
having fun with numbers to 5, 10 (and beyond)!
experimenting with Place Value arrow cards and partitioning numbers into
100s, 10s and 1s
Place Value arrow cards represent numbers in expanded notation. The cards overlap to form multi-digit numbers.
and consolidation with online games.
lots of practice with visualising and learning important principles of seeing patterns, anchoring numbers and enforce number bonds with the hands on teaching resource REKENREKS.
and Ten frames – to help develop a strong number sense! Ten frames are very useful in helping learners visualise numbers and build a good understanding of the relationships between numbers.
fun with board games and
using DIENES resources to represent 1,10,100 and 1000
allowing the learners to understand the relationship between the different columns on a place value grid:
using a variety of resources to identify, write and partition numbers up to 1 000 000 including Place value charts to help find the place value of each digit based on its position in a number.
using Place value discs including decimal numbers to tenths.
Place value disks help learners compare the value of each place, like that the tens place is ten times the ones place.
focusing on rounding to 2 decimal places.
We are excited to get started with Addition and subtraction next.
See you soon! 🙂
