I can’t quite believe that we are beginning Week 8 of this term!
I know the timetable looks really busy, but it is more about making sure you can find all of the resources you need. Please just do what you can; I really appreciate all the support and effort which is coming from home.
It’s an INSET day on Monday and so I won’t be about online, however, I will release all of the activities this evening if the children want to access them tomorrow.
Spelling and Basic Facts are there as usual, and I have included another couple of prediction activities which the children seem to enjoy.
Our IDL habitat work is taking us to Polar environments this week – looking in particular at animal adaptations. Maths is moving on to Information Handling starting with Tally Charts and Bar Graphs.
The main focus for Health and Wellbeing this week is ‘giving back’, as we try to raise awareness for the Highland Hospice. I know that we are a week behind with our ‘Wear Yellow Day’ but we thought it better not to clash with the Upper School plans. The ‘Virtual Sunshine Cafe’ is in essence all about raising awareness through sharing a little baking happiness. The children can keep this completely within the home or, if you are making regular deliveries to neighbours/family they could be included. Everyone’s safety is the priority. So, dress up, bake, eat cake, dance, design a T-shirt for Bobby the Bee and have fun! Feel free to post all ‘Wear Yellow Day’ activities on the Classroom stream. There is absolutely no obligation to donate to the Hospice unless you wish to do so, it is all about raising awareness and showing support for a local charity.
Here are the Google Meet groups for this week. If your family is busy doing something else on the day, but your child is keen to participate in a Meet, just let me know and I will do my best to fit them into another group. It’s easier to have a maximum of 10, but I don’t want anyone missing out.

Many thanks, as always, for your continued support.
