Panda Class – Phonics – Read Write Inc link 30th March 2020

Hi Panda Parents/Carers,

I hope you are well.

I wanted to highlight a great resource from Read Write Inc – our phonics lessons / resources.

There are live films for teaching phonics lessons, available everyday for 2 weeks with each episode available for 24hrs.

Set One Speed Sounds @ 9:30am  (These are really important for revision)

Set Two Speed Sounds @ 10:00am  (This is where we are up to currently – we have covered ay, ee, igh, ow, oo (as in moon) & oo (as in book)   New learning would be ar, or, air, ir, ou & oy

Set Three Speed Sounds @ 10:30am  For when children have completed Set Two Speed Sounds (This set is for learning more ways of writing the same sounds)

I would recommend watching Set One Sounds, then have a break and watch Set Two Sounds a little while later.

There are also further films for parents/Carers which help with understanding the process of teaching phonics and how to say the sounds.

Please follow the link below and hopefully you will enjoy tuning in every day.

Your children will be so pleased and proud to show you how well they can do – I’m sure you could use Dojo rewards to add Monster points! Keep the wonderful communications through Dojo, I love hearing about what you have been doing.

Happy Phonics

Mandy Turner

Poetry Challenge Completed!

Well done to all those that completed today’s poetry challenge. You have created some excellent Kennings based on the squirrel video you were asked to watch. They were really well written and I could see how closely you had watched the video.I particularly the use of alliteration.

Today’s Poetry Challenge

Morning Rhino Class,

Fancy a challenge?

Today I would like you to have a go at writing a special type of poem called a Kenning.

Kennings were first used in Anglo Saxon times. The famous Anglo-Saxon poem Beowulf uses many kenning phrases, for example:

  • Body = bone-house
  • Ship  = wave-floater

Today, we can use Kennings to describe everyday people, animals and objects, for example a kenning about a dog could be:

face-licker
ball-chaser
stick-carrier
water-drinker
tail-wagger
floor-sniffer

and so on……

Can you write a Kenning poem about the squirrel in the video below? Remember each line of the poem needs to contain only two words (noun – er verb) e.g risk-taker. Remember to send your poems via Class Dojo and I can post them on the website to share. Have fun!

Vocabulary Challenge

Can you think of 10 words to describe this picture?

Send me your 10 words  via Class Dojo and I will compile a list later in the day. Good luck!

Mr Glover

A great list so far….Can we add more?

Now we have this list…

Version 3… The bigger the word appears, the more times it has been used. Well done to those who have thought of synonyms and more abstract words.

Final version. Well done and thank you to all that contributed to today’s challenge. You have done a great job exploring vocabulary.

Distance Learning – Don’t Panic!

Distance Learning – Don’t Panic!

We are all about to embark on something very new and very daunting. You have not opted to home educate your child, as some parents do, so many of will not have the set-up and resources to replicate school at home – and we do not expect  you to replicate school! Children work well in school, being taught, being led, bouncing ideas off each other; it will be impossible for them to do this at home and you mustn’t feel bad if what you try to do doesn’t work. Within school, teachers and children develop a very special respect for each other and this is how we get the best out of them. I know from having my own children that it can be a very different story at home when it comes to school work!  You must remember though, when you try and get them to do their homework usually, they have already done 6 hours work in school and are bound to be more tired and reluctant.

As well as you being thrown in at the deep end with this, so have the teachers. They have never had to provide learning in this manner before. They are trying to add resources and activities to the website BUT you don’t have to do it all! Some families will be in a position to do more, some less. You will not be judged on this. The teachers and TAs are also working in school on rotation to care for the children whose parents are vital in the covid-19 response. Some are very anxious and worried about doing this and the risk to their own families so I want to thank you for all your efforts to keep your children at home at this time and for the lovely supportive messages we have had send in to school.

If it works for your family to have other learning experiences such as art, music, cooking, sewing, board games, craft, sport or gardening then definitely do these! This time could be a rare chance in our busy lives to spend a lot of time with our children doing things we never have time to do.  We would love to hear from you and see what you’re up to, so please email photos or write to us at the school email addresses. We will all miss the children so much and are heartbroken that this is the way the year has potentially ended.

Good luck – we’re only a dojo away, so keep in touch!
