Home Learning

 

Hello everyone, 

I hope you are all keeping well and happy during your time away from school.  To continue with your home learning you will find a weekly planning letter along with resources that you may find useful.  You may be glad to know that we do not expect our children to be home schooled for 6 hours a day, however, it is important that our children keep in touch with their learning and continue to develop to the best of their ability whilst at home. 

 

Please log in to your child's Seesaw account to find these activities updated weekly.  It is important to encourage your child to engage in a reading activity, writing activity and mathematical activity each day to keep their development going within these areas.  Upload these activities to their Seesaw account and I will be checking in daily to give feed back and keep in touch with your little ones learning. 

Remember all activities should be fun and if this should become not the case, please stop and come back to it another day.  

 

Many thanks for your continuous support.

 

Stay home, stay safe and stay well

Summer Term 2

"Staycation - Exploring Our Wonderful World"

Hello everyone.

Hope you have enjoyed the weather this Whitsun holiday! 

Thank you to all of you who have made suggestions for this half term's topic. There seems to be a common theme of learning about the big wide world and food. So I thought it might be a nice idea, as it is unlikely that many of us will be travelling the world this summer, that we should learn about a different country each week. I have carried out some research and put learning packs together and we will explore parts of our wonderful world over the next few weeks. We will learn about where in the world different countries are, their capital cities, flags, culture, music, wildlife and yummy foods. Perhaps you could make or try some of these different foods each week too. This week we go to Mexico!

Thank you all for your hard work and enjoy the summer sunshine.

Missing you all!

 

Much love,

 

Mrs Jones
