We are very sad that we cannot be in our classroom together but it is still so important that you are learning from home.  Here are some activities to help progress your learning - 

WE DO COMPLETELY UNDERSTAND IF YOU CANNOT GET TO EVERY ACTIVITY EVERY DAY, THESE ARE ACTIVITIES TO SUPPORT HOME LEARNING WHERE POSSIBLE YOU DO NOT HAVE TO RIGOROUSLY FOLLOW THEM.

There are a lot of activities, they may even last you several weeks.

BEING ACTIVE IS SO IMPORTANT.  YOU COULD JOIN IN WITH JOE WICKS EVERYDAY ON YOUTUBE! 

He does activities for all people of all ages.

During the month of April, JK Rowling is posting audio books of Harry Potter on her website   https://www.wizardingworld.com/

There are eBooks, quizzes and lots of other fun activities to take part in.

Don't forget to look on the Forest School webpage for forest school type activities you can do in your home and garden.

Lots of them are 'off screen' ideas.

Other home learning to keep up as well-

Keep up your reading as much as you can!  When we all get back to school you will get a house points for every single day that you read, as well as more entries into the prize jar!

Topic

For the Summer Term our topics shall be, 'Blue Planet' and 'From The Stone Age to The Iron Age'.  On Espresso there is a lot of information which will help support these topics.  Have an explore of the website -https://central.espresso.co.uk/espresso

Literacy

Within literacy our big focus will be filling any of our knowledge gaps for grammar.  Things to look at will include - homophones, using conjunctions (and, so, because, after, then, but.....) and use of adverbs (quickly, quietly.....).  You could write a story incorporating all of these.

You could also be practicing your Read, Write Inc spelling words and handwriting practice with them.

Here is the website for Twinkl, if the adults at home sign up they will get a month free due to the current conditions.

In Computing the children continue to consider how to keep themselves safe when working online or using their mobile phones. It is something that we believe is very important and the children regularly have time to reinforce their knowledge of the ways to ensure they stay safe and happy whilst enjoying time on the computers. An excellent site for both children and parents is the Think U Know site. The web address is www.thinkuknow.co.uk and it is well worth a visit.

The children can also enjoy lots of activities and extend their learning by visiting Purple Mash.

Purple Mash is an ever growing online creative space especially for learners aged 3 - 11. This award winning site is filled with hundreds of fun educational activities in the form of projects, games, apps and tools. Being hosted online, you can access Purple Mash and your saved online files wherever you are and whenever you wish.
