Welcome to our 'Home learning" activities page for Primary 3
How is it already June and we are into the second half of the summer term? The new link for the second half of the summer term has activities and ideas that are related to our new theme of BEARS. The transport and holiday activity ideas are still in the summer 1 page as are the “general activities” Don’t forget … if you do anything lovely at home then please take a photo and send it through to the main office office@theviewtrust.org if you are happy for us to publish them on the school blog.
We hope you enjoy them!
The weekly ‘phone calls will continue with me giving you a quick call each Wednesday just to catch up and see if there is anything I can be doing to help you and your families. If you think of something before (or after!!) the ‘phone call then please contact me via office@thetheviewtrust.org and I will get back to you as soon as possible. I ahve very much enjoyed speaking to you over the past weeks and hope you don’t mind the weekly catch up!
Regards,
Allison David and the P3 staff team.
In addition to our own, Primary 3, class page there are lots of other fantastic ideas and activities on the other primary pages … please feel free to have a look through and get some inspriration!

The Oak academy is a website that has been established and developed since the start of lockdown. Through it there is access to a wide range of teaching ideas and strategies. Two of our Tor View teachers have created videos to go on the website. Here is some information from the Home page of the Oak Academy. Please have a look at the website – link attached (via the classroom – specialist – subject buttons)
“Every teacher has had to adapt since the coronavirus lockdown. They’ve changed plans at speed – moving resources online, teaching remotely, and continuing to support their students. Oak National Academy is our contribution. It has been built by more than 80 state school teachers and organisations across the sector, working together. Our aim is to support teachers to support their pupils. Nothing can replace the unique relationships between teachers and their pupils. But we hope our bank of high quality video lessons and resources can help support remote teaching. We’ll cover a range of subjects including maths, English, art and languages. Teachers can use these to complement their own lesson planning and teaching until schools fully re-open. Parents can access our resources to support home learning, as guided by their child’s school. Every lesson will be free to use for every teacher and every pupil. We built Oak National Academy at speed, and have now expanded to include a specialist curriculum. This is our initial offer, but we want to do more. It doesn’t yet cover the full range on offer in schools in normal times. And it doesn’t yet cater to the full range of pupils who attend specialist settings. We intend to develop our curriculum in the coming weeks and add content as we can. We’re also looking to expand our offer in KS4.”
