We had a meeting on TEAMS this week to chat about fundraising with Aaron, Mia and Leila. We decided that we would definitely like to have a bit of fun on Red Nose Day 19th March. So get your giggling muscles ready!
We are going to ask people to send us a picture of their funniest face! You can use filters or just your facial muscles to make us giggle! please email pictures to admin@royalmile.edin.sch.uk by THURSDAY 18th March.
Then you can get creative and design a superhero – FUNNY IS A SUPER POWER! The Pupil Council will judge all entries and there will be prizes for each class. Sheets will be available from 15th.
Last, but not least, we are challenging every class to find their TOP TEN JOKES. We will publish them on our blogs so you can join in the laughter at home!
A donation of £1 would be greatly appreciated and we hope everyone will join in the fun!
( we will also be asking for your copper coins to help with experiments during SCIENCE WEEK 15th MARCH, and we’ll pop them in the fundraising as well. So have a wee search down the back of the sofa please)
Good Afternoon, I hope that you are all well and have avoided the rain today. So here is the assembly celebrating success this week and showing off how great the young people at Royal Mile can be!!! https://youtu.be/2OTa0v6IyoA Miss Murray’s World Book Day Assembly is great too!
If you completed some JASS activities during home learning, you can use these same activities/photos. The pupil needs to complete the task mostly on their own so that they can be proud of it. More ideas: a 500 piece puzzle, 10 origami animals, sewing/knitting, draw/paint by numbers picture.
If you are not sure, please contact school so that we can help you. We want all pupils to earn their certificates!
It has been so lovely having you all back. I’m so excited to see what we will create this week!
Homework – JASS
This week we updated our ‘about me’ page in our JASS folders. For the next 2 weeks your homework will be to work on your My Interests section. Today you have taken home the sheet below to fill in. If you would rather, you can download this sheet on a computer at home and add photographs and explanations. If you completed some JASS activities during home learning, you can use these same activities/photos. Please email the document to admin@royalmile.edin.sch.uk. This must be completed by the 15th March.
Reading will resume this week. We read in class on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. The folder will go home on Thursdays and needs to be returned on Mondays.
Education City
There’s nothing new on Education City this week but take a moment to see if you have any unfinished tasks in your homework and/or classwork areas.
Science
This week we were learning to predict and test. We each chose 5 items and predicted (guessed) if they would float or sink then we tested them and recorded our answers.
[My favourite part of the week was] “playing in the water tray” Bryce
Try at home – Lemon and lime. Do they both float? Do they both sink? What happens if you peel them?
Bubbles
My favourite part of the week was… “Bubbles” Ragad and Mariam
P.E
We have been working on our gross motor skills (big movements) including playing with the parachute (moving our arms up and down), and throwing and catching with lots of different shapes such as a Frisbee, hoops, foam javelins and bean bags.
What was your favourite part of the week?
“Going under the parachute” Micah
“The parachute and tidying up” Leyla
“I like playing with the parachute” Theodora
“Sitting in the parachute” Luara
“Running under the parachute” Mohammed
At home – Try making something soft that you can throw and catch like a pair of socks or gloves. If this is too tricky, try a balloon – the slow movement and larger size should make this easier.
RME
This week we were learning about the Christian story of Noah’s Ark. The animals went in 2 by 2… Listen to the song below!
Learning for the week beginning 1.3.2021
