Afternoon Activities
Good Afternoon Everyone! We hope you’ve had a good day so far and ready for this afternoon. Remember you can always check in with your teacher to let us know how you are feeling, and share worries or all your achievements. We love to hear from you!
We are getting very good at counting beats Primary 3 – Have a go with this video below! You could even ask a member of your household to join in. They can help you to create rhythms and perform them simultaneously (at the same time).
We always try to achieve success but there is a lot to learn from our mistakes too! Think about your week so far or over the last few weeks. What mistakes have you made? What have you learned? Who helped you to resolve the situation?
It’s important to have a Growth Mindset more than ever! Which one sticks with you? I like ‘B – Mistakes make my Brain grow.’
Finally, we love to sing but can we beatbox? Below you can sing and learn a simple beatbox accompaniment. We have a feeling you may know most of the words already – Enjoy!
Follow up activities:
– Baloo the bear sings: ‘Wherever I wander, wherever I roam, I couldn’t be fonder of my big home’. Create a model or picture or your home. (You could link both music activities by using Lego.)
– Homophones are words that sound the same but have different spelling like bear/bare. We did a bit of work earlier this term on these. Here is a reminder: They are words which have different meanings and have different spellings, but when spoken, they sound the same. For example, pair/pear or there/their or two/too.
Set a timer and see how many you can come up with.
(We would recommend 5 minutes!)
– Baloo and Mowgli dance together in the film, create your own dance moves. You may even ask someone to be Baloo and you can be Mowgli and dance together!
Have a wonderful afternoon everyone,
Miss Sandy & Miss Cowan
