Home Learning Tuesday 26th September 2023

Good morning Primary Five Families,

Please find attached below the home learning for today. I have provided links to sways for each lesson which should allow children to work as independently as possible. They should only need a jotter and pencil to complete each activity.

Please encourage your child to write in their home learning jotter. It would be great to see what they have done when we are back in school on Friday.

Thanks!

Mr McPheely

Home Learning

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.

Learning Across the Curriculum

To continue our learning on the Ancient Greeks, please research some facts on the Ancient Greek Olympics. You can use a variety of online sources and library resources to find your information but please don’t forget to write down where the information came from, so we can judge how reliable the source is.
