Another Successful Health Week!

This week has been our Health Week at Loanhead Primary, and what an amazing week it has been.  Every class has enjoyed learning about health and wellbeing as well as trying out different sports and healthy activities.  We thank Mrs Duncan for organising this week for us, without her then this week could not have happened.

Classes kicked off the week with our amazing sports day, another thanks to Mrs Duncan and the P7s for running this for the school.  It was a lovely afternoon filled with a lot of laughter and team spirit and it was great to see so many parents, carers, friends and family here to support the pupils.

The rest of the week was filled with our early morning warm ups in the playground, American Football, Football, Hockey, Cycling, Rugby, Judo, Movement to Music, Yoga, Judo, Relaxation, Healthy food making, Dance, Sleep and gaming awareness, Police talks, Internet safety, our fabulous bike breakfast (storm Hector can not stop us!) and so much more!

Here are some photos of this amazing week.

Parrots- double consonants  nn, ll, pp, tt,    e.g. ball, dropped, binned, sipped, butter. Try and explain the spelling rule to your family. Think vowel sandwich.

I have told the children that they can also learn the sounds and patterns from the other groups if they wish so this is why your child may have more than one word list home.

Numeracy- NEW

I have sent each child home with a small envelop with Learn its in them. Please hold these up for your child so they can answer the sum on the front. When they can say each sum as quickly, or almost as quickly as they know their name then you can put a tick on the back.

When they have five ticks on each card they can put them in the bin! When there are no learn its left in their envelope, or they are getting low, they can come for more. The next things are 4 and 9 x table, subtraction and division. Just let me know when you want more.
