Homework - w.b. 28.2.22

Writing this week is related to Shrove Tuesday/Pancake Day on Tuesday. Can the children write instructions, a recipe, a poem, a report, describe their favourite topping, draw a picture and write about it related to this?

I have also added a list of writing suggestions for each day of March to support with ideas. Click on the picture opposite to see these.

You can also find writing linked with World Book Day in the 'Right of the Week' page.

This month is part of the Big Schools' Birdwatch month. I have added resources opposite and below.

Ideas this week;

• draw and describe your favourite garden bird (P1/2)

• keep a bird watching journal

• write a report on your favourite garden bird

• make a fact file on certain birds

• create a quiz around garden birds

• write a report on the importance of birds/ the RSPB/migration

Think about what they look like, their size, what they eat, where they nest, their young, how to describe their song etc.

Homework - w.b. 7.2.22

This week is Internet Safety Day on Tuesday. See the poster opposite for top ten tips for being respectful online. Mrs Laird has also been completing work within classes about staying safe and respectful online.

Can you create your own piece of work for staying safe online? This could be a poster, powerpoint, letter to parents/children/teachers, instructions, list and include what you have seen in school or read together with your parents in the poster opposite.

Homework - w.b. 31.1.22

Look at the dragon image from the Literacy Shed opposite and discuss...

• Where is it from?

• Why is it so small?

• Are there more like him?

• Where does he live?

• How will you look after it?

• Will you keep it a secret or tell someone?

• What is it called?

• Is it magic? What magic can it do?

I like to imagine that it is a really small dragon which you can keep in your pocket but when you need to it can grow huge so that you can ride it.

Thinking about these create a written piece of your choice. This can be a story, poem, report, letter ... Take these in and show your teacher and Mrs Laird.
