Panda Class Home Learning Tuesday 9th February

Hi Pandas,

This week’s learning will still have lots of learning but will ‘feel’ a bit different. As we look forward to half term we will have more of a self-directed week of work.

Phonics is still available each day – the Live Phonics lessons with Ruth Miskin continue this week. These lessons have been well-received and seem to be a favourite!

Maths Year 1 and Reception This week has a mix of Number and 3D shape work. It doesn’t matter which order you do the work in. The Number worksheets are differentiated by having stars in the bottom left-hand corner. 1 Star being easier than 3 stars. You can if you choose, do them all, or, pick one that suits your child’s learning. The 3D shape work has a variety of activities; some practical work, finding the shapes in everyday objects, and some 2D & 3D Riddles along with colouring and cutting activities. Go at your own pace through the week. Let me know if you have any queries.

Nearly half term!

Well done everyone – there is only one more week until half term!! You have all done amazingly well. The responses to the parent surveys were really useful and teachers have been able to make tweaks to their provision to help you as much as possible. If there is anything else you need, you can email in at any time. We can give you paper, stationery, reading books, exercise books and even lend you a laptop – just contact the office.

The teachers and TAs, as you rightly said in your survey responses, have been fantastic and are working absolutely flat out. It’s great to have Dojo to contact teachers whenever its convenient for you, but please can I ask that you don’t expect a response from them late in the evenings or at the weekends. I have told the teachers to have a proper break at half term, so there will be no work set during this week. I’m sure most of you will be glad of this, too!

Keep smiling, keep in touch and do what works for you and your family. Every family is unique; what works for some, will not work for others. We understand that, and you mustn’t worry or compare yourself to others. When we all come back, we will have lots of things in place to support the children and get back on track if needed.

Take care, Mrs Williams

Panda Class Home Learning Friday 5th February

Hello Pandas.

After all of your hard work this week, take it easy today and have lots of Panda fun!

I found it more enjoyable to watch this without the sound on.

From 10am on Friday 5th February, Chester Zoo are offering a virtual zoo day – with a full time table of fascinating animal activities for us to watch. I can’t wait, I love Chester Zoo.

Other things you could try today:

Continue with Ruth Miskin’s Live Phonics Lesson for Friday.

Cosmic Kids Yoga on YouTube, going for a walk,, bird-spotting.

Joe Wicks or Mr Wright TWWG’ Move’ PE lessons available on YouTube.

Jigsaws and board games.

Try this craft activity to make a tiger :

Templates for tiger craft

Cardboard Tube Tiger Craft Instructions

Or if you want to make an invertebrate creature, after this week’s science, try this jelly fish activity:

If you’re feeling like doing some super science have a look at this activity: Place some cabbage leaves or any other suitable veg into a glass of water with food colouring in. Watch the ink track up the stem and into the leaf.

What ever you do today, make sure you have lots of fun. I will hopefully see some of you on our 2pm Zoom session – if you could have a teddy bear or doll and some paper and colouring pencils. I will send the link on Class Dojo tomorrow.

Best wishes and have a great day.

Living Things Lesson 3

In this lesson, we are going to be learning about 3 different families of animals which are invertebrates. Invertebrates are animals which do not have a backbone. They either have a soft body, like worms and jellyfish, or they have a hard outer casing covering their body, like spiders and crabs. We will be learning specifically about crustaceans, arachnids and insects which are types of invertebrates.

After all that hard work enjoy the story of The Clumsy Crab by Ruth Galloway.
