Week beginning 26.5.20

Hello everyone.

I hope you all had a lovely weekend.

Below you will find some learning activities to do this week.

Continue to log in to Sumdog and MyMaths to develop your numeracy and literacy skills as I will set competitions and challenges each week.

As it is National Paper Aeroplane Day today I have included ‘How To’ instructions for making your own. I will also post a link to a YouTube tutorial. Instructions are very important. Have a go at writing your own using the resources below. You can write instructions on how to make anything you like.

Week beginning 18.5.20

Good morning everyone!

I had a great time in the Hub last week but I missed you all!

I hope you had a lovely week and made the most of National Numeracy Day.

This week there will be new Spelling, Numeracy and Grammar Sumdog competitions. There will be winners for participation and for correct answers.

This week is a short week as it is in service on Thursday and Friday, You would normally have been off school these days 🙂

Looking forward to hearing from you all this week. I bumped into 2 people from our class last week and that was brilliant! Can’t wait to see you all again.

fruit mystery maths – here is a link to a mystery for you to solve. Each page will give you clues which will lead you closer to finding out who squished the fruit. Do a page a day or try it all at once to solve the mystery (Use the answers only to check your work.)

pictogram tally – the first sheet is filled out with an imaginary class’s data. If you would like to do the other sheets you can come on Microsoft Teams and ask the class what their favourite fruit is, or you can phone round relatives and ask them, or both! I’m sure everyone would love to hear from you.

Today is National No Dirty Dishes Day!

Why don’t you make a bigger effort today to help around the house? As soon as you are done with a plate or cup or fork, make sure you pop it in the kitchen, or even better, clean it straight away.

Here is a little information sheet about how to wash dishes: your adults can show you how to do it or you can show your younger siblings how to do it.

Week Beginning 11.5.20

Hello everyone!

As I am in the hub this week I will not be online.

However I will still be checking our Teams page at points so if you have any questions I will get back to you.

Monday is National Eat What You Want Day and Tuesday is National Limerick Day so I have put some resources in this post and in the files section on Teams for you.

I have made our class video but I would like to give it another go if more videos and photos are posted. (I’ve found it  very difficult to get the timing of your videos the same as Bruno Mars singing so would like to practise more!)

New password for Glow/Teams

Hello everyone!

To make your online use safer I have set it so the next time you log in you will be prompted to change your password – you will use the same password we have been using and then you will be asked to change it to whatever you like.

Whatever you change this to only you will know this password so it is important you write it down somewhere safe and try to keep it stored in your brain too 🧠 so make it something you can easily remember.

I am in the hub this week so I will not be on Teams but I will still check it at points so if you have any problems or questions let me know.

Have a great week – missing you all xx
