Thank you to Carla who has been keeping in touch and updating us on her home learning. She has had a go at creating some poetry from the resources in her pack, have a read and see if it inspires you to get started on some of your own poetry.  She has also been working on her cooking skills and has created a delicious lunch of French Toast. Yum! What recipes have you been trying out at home?

Introducing our new P5 twitter account:

@pentlands2019

Please find additional information below. 

Dear Parents/ Carers and pupils, to help us keep in touch we are setting up a class Twitter page. The age limit is 13 on Twitter so it is important that parents and carers monitor and oversee the communication on this account. The account will be private and monitored during school hours only. It is important that your child stays safe on line so here is some information for you. https://www.net-aware.org.uk/networks/twitter/

If we have photo permission for the school website and blog we will apply this to this Twitter account as well. The code of conduct applies so everyone should be polite, considerate and respectful. It is a good way for you to share what you have been doing and for us to keep in touch.

You can also follow the school Twitter account @royalmileps

The Twitter accounts are linked to the Blog as well so you can see these posts as well.

Our first challenge is for you to design us a Profile Picture for the account!

Thank you
Mrs Jessop 

Dear Primary 5, 6 and 7.

We hope that you and your families are keeping well. We are thinking of you all and hoping that you are safe, well and content at this time.

Beneath this message are some further links to support you in your home learning. We hope that you have found the previous grid both helpful and enjoyable. If you have not yet had a chance to look at them, please do not worry. We understand that this is an unusual time and it can take a while to settle into a routine that works for you and your family.

The first link is the new home learning grid for this week. Within it are suggested activities for each curricular area, building on those from last week.

The second link is a list of classical music pieces and suggested activities. It contains information about the composer, the music, links to an introduction online and a full performance. At the end of each page, there are suggested creative activities to link to the music.

Finally, the third link is a list of helpful websites, all of which are free and designed to support you in your learning. The document contains links and descriptors, for you to explore those which interest you.

Kind Regards,

The Second Level team,

Ms Murray, Ms Kerr and Mr McPheely.
