Panda Class Maths and Phonics links

As promised, to get you started, some links to maths and phonics…

Week 1 Maths and Phonics links

White Rose Maths  for Year 1  (Reception there will be more specific work to follow but in the meantime, you could have a go) – this is week 1, of the new Spring Term. Adding & Subtracting to 20.  This might not sound like a very high number but there’s (usually) a series of deeper understanding questions and problems to solve. There are a few short videos so I suggest chunking them during the day.

https://whiterosemaths.com/homelearning/year-1/week-2-number-addition-and-subtraction-within-20/

For Phonics this is the link which shows how to say each of the sounds, for teaching phonics effectively.

Could work be recorded in a book from home or the 1 collected from school.  Then, as the work progresses, we can celebrate all of their hard work.

Panda Class Learning

Good Morning everyone,

over the next few days I will be publishing lessons and links to on-line learning. I am aiming to carry on with the planned lessons we would be doing in school, but in a different format.

I will draw up a home learning timetable, including Maths, Reading, English and topic based work. I will schedule some zoom sessions too.

From today Read Write Inc are offering live Phonics lessons via YouTube  (when I know more about the content of them I will be able to issue guidance as to which set of letters you could follow). The lessons will be available on-line for 24 hours.

White Rose maths are offering home learning and videos to follow, to support the children’s learning.  Again, I will look through these and try and fill the gaps/offer support when and where needed.

It’s early days in terms of putting all this together, but I will keep you posted on line and on Class Dojo.

I will be putting new exercise books in the school entrance for children to use at home for their work. If you could follow the usual guidance about safe distancing please.

Thank you so much for your support.

Best wishes, stay safe,

Mandy Turner

New Year activity

Dear Tigers,
please see the posts below with links for the video lessons, activities and worksheets for today. I have included Maths and English lessons, as well as a New Year activity. From tomorrow, those posts will be found in out ‘Home Learning’ tab of the Class’ page.

Make sure you read the post for your year group, as the tasks are completely different.

Don’t forget you can also access Maths Shed and Spelling Shed to continue practising.

If you have any questions about any of the activities or need any help, please send me a message and I’ll respond as soon as possible.

Please remember I will be at School teaching the Tigers who must be in today, so I might not be able to answer straight away, but I will do my best.

I will also be organising a daily Zoom meeting from tomorrow, as mentioned by Mrs Williams, but am liaising with the other teachers to ensure siblings are not expected online at the same time, as I understand that might be difficult.

I can’t wait to hear all about your Christmas break. Meanwhile, choose at least one of the pages from your booklet attached to let me know about the past few weeks and your plans for the new year.

See you soon,

Important Information – possible school closure

Dear parents and carers,
I do not want to wait until the PM’s announcement at 8pm tonight before giving you an idea of what will be in place IF we are asked to close our schools. The information below is to help you prepare. Please do not act upon it if we remain open!
Children of Critical Workers in School
We have been asked to prioritise which children come into school during lockdown, as the purpose is to have as few in school as possible. Therefore, please let us know by  tomorrow whether you fit into category 1, where you will automatically be allocated a place. Or Category 2, where we will consider numbers and family circumstances and reserve the right not to offer you a place.
If you are applying for a place on the grounds of category 1A. then please attach proof of your occupations with your request email.  A list of category 1A jobs can be found on the DFE https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/coronavirus-covid-19-maintaining-educational-provision/guidance-for-schools-colleges-and-local-authorities-on-maintaining-educational-provision
Email the admin address as soon as possible so that we have an idea of numbers.
Category 1:
a)Both parents are Critical Workers for Covid response or EU Transition
b)Vulnerable children
c)Children in care
d)Children with an EHCP
Category 2:
One parent a Critical worker and one parent a key worker
One or both parents key workers, but not covid response
Parent in hospital
Even if you fall into the eligibility for a critical worker’s place, you may still prefer to keep your child at home, and if you are able to do that safely, then we advise it.
Home-learning
Your child’s teacher has had VERY limited time to process this new lockdown and prepare, but work will be provided on the school website class page under the section HOMELEARNING. They may also use Dojo to send you copies of worksheets or photographs of the whiteboard. As the week goes on, we will bring in some face to face teaching. From Wednesday, you will be sent a link to a morning Zoom so your child can register with their class and be told what is expected of them during the day. They will also be expected to join Worship via zoom, and as the week goes on, some other lessons or feedback zooms with their teacher.  There will be more information once we know what is going to happen.

Mrs Clare Williams

Home Learning – Tuesday 5.1.21

Morning Everyone,

First of all, let me wish you a ‘Happy new year.’

I wasn’t sure whether we would be in this situation again, having to resort to online learning, but here we are again…. I’m really sorry that we can’t all be together again in class but we will be able to organise things a little differently this time and hopefully we can all take part in some live lessons.

For today though, I have put together some links to access the activities that were planned for you to complete in class on your first day back.

Activity 1:

Spelling challenge: How many words can you make by using the letters from

‘Happy New Year Everyone’

1 dojo for every 10 words created and there will be 5 dojos for the longest word created. Send me your lists via class dojo

Activity 2:

English: Watch the video below for an animation called ‘Rooted’. You are going to be writing your own version of this, but for today, I would like you to create a storyboard for the events. Can you divide the story into 8 main parts?

Rooted Animation


Take an A4 piece of paper and divide into 8 sections and then draw an image for each part of the story along with a short description. This will help you tomorrow when we are going to write our own version of this animation. You may also want to think about some of the features of writing you are going to use. Think about what tools makes a good story?

Activity 3:

Maths: Today we are learning about the 11 and 12 x tables.

Below are links to the white rose video for today’s task and the corresponding activity sheets

Video lesson

1 Y4-Spring-Block-1-D1-11-and-12-times-table

Activity 4:

Science: What do you know about electricity? Like at the start of every new topic, we find out what you know and what you would like to know by completing a knowledge harvest. I have also included our new vocabulary sheet to test your prior knowledge of key words for this unit.

Electricity – Knowledge Harvest

Key Vocab

Activity 5:

Topic: Our new topic for this term is the Anglo – Saxons. Again, here we will start by conducting a knowledge harvest and raising some key questions that hopefully we will be to answer as we learn.

Anglo Saxons – knowledge Harvest

You may know very little about the Anglo – Saxons at this point of your learning, so to help you generate some questions, below is a video from BBC Bitesize with some basic information.

Who were the Anglo – Saxons?
