Well you’ve made it – learning independently from home has ended………..well, week 1 has! Only ?????? to go!

It’s been great to see all of the activities (school work and ‘down time’ activities) that you’ve been doing this week, so thank you for sending me the photographs and copies of what you’ve produced. You’ve got 1 week to go until your Spring Term Easter holidays, so remember, try to stick to the timetable that you are given and treat it as a normal school week. Everything that you are being sent is what you would be focusing on in the classroom so try to be as independent as possible. It’s all there for you!

Many children are practising hard on their spellings and we our class is currently in 39th place in the WHOLE WORLD on Spelling Shed! Can we make the top 35 by practising every day from 9:30 – 9:45am? If you all do your bit, you will zoom up the leaderboard!

Here’s a few highlights from this week’s pupil’s activities at home………..

Spellings Week 1

Keep it going! You’re doing great!

With the weather being so lovely today, hopefully all of the children managed to get some ‘down time’ in the garden or on a carefully chosen walk somewhere. Knowing our weather, it will probably snow on Friday!

School shall be open tomorrow as we are hosting the children whose parents are key workers. Therefore, if you have not already done so, please feel free to collect your child’s books (Sketch, RE, Topic, Science) from the reception area at any point during the day. I shall also leave out some paper for you to share as well as many of you will have been doing lots of printing at home.

Well done to Harvey who was awarded the 5 Dojos for his fantastic art work this afternoon. All of the other children who sent me their attempts were given 1 Dojo each!
