Thursday 26th March

Hello everyone, can you believe we’re nearly at the end of the week already?! I’m sure Karate David wishes he was with us too for our normal Thursday slot. Keep your eyes peeled because i’ve been in touch with him and I think he’s working on  something for you all. 

Day 4 of no school so see below for a ‘could do’ list for today. We want you and your families to look after each other and think about staying safe first so don’t worry if you can’t do all of this today!

If you are learning at home, take videos and pictures of what you’ve done and post them on the blog, twitter or email to me. Please comment feedback on the blog so I know what is working for you at home and what you’d like to see more of!

9am

Gym lesson online with Joe Wicks- this changes each day. LIVE https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCAxW1XT0iEJo0TYlRfn6rYQ

9:30-10:30: Literacy

Writing- Use your jotter to practise writing the common words in your at home learning pack.

Again if you need some help ask an adult to dot your words for you so you can trace them.

If you need inspiration for more words to practise reading and writing here’s a list of 100 high frequency words…

10:30-11:15: Break Time

It’s important that you have breaks and fresh air if you can. Social distancing means you can’t go and play with other people that you don’t live with but you can go outside with your family for a walk, a run in the park or a cycle ride. Don’t stay inside all day.

 

Have a healthy snack – a piece of fruit or some raisins?

 

11:15-12:15: Maths

The best way for you to keep practising the right maths for you is through SumDog: https://www.sumdog.com/user/sign_in?to=%2Femails

Your log in is in your home learning pack. Please spend today getting online on SumDog and looking at all the lessons you can do there.

12:15-1pm: Lunch 

Have a healthy lunch and go outside again if you can! If not, maybe put on some music and have a lunchtime disco in the house to get your body moving again!

1-2.30 pm: Health & Wellbeing

I have two tasks for you this afternoon.

No 1. The first is to complete this mindful meditation. In class one, one of my favourite things is to read guided meditations to the children, here is a video link to one that will hopefully do the same job.

Sit quietly, listen and breathe.

No 2. Self-love and appreciation is extremely important especially at a time like this. Think about who you are. What makes you special. Complete either the balloon worksheet filling out the sentences outlining what your unique personality traits are. Or draw a picture of yourself and talk to someone at home about what makes you special and unique.

Click on the link below to download the worksheets.

I am an amazing person.

Who I am self portrait.

If you don’t have a printer to print the worksheet you choose to do you can draw a  self-portrait of yourself in your jotter and make notes about what makes you special in there.

2-2:30pm: Break Time

Go outside again if you can or have another disco…or you could do another Cosmickids yoga session in your living room? Keep your body moving!

2:30-3pm: Story and chat

At the end of each day, we will send you stories to listen to/read. Some of these will be read by your lovely St. Albert’s teachers, others might be by famous authors. To get ready for the story:

  • Get a snack and a drink
  • Get somewhere comfy – on cushions/sofa/bed, under a blanket
  • Get one of your parents or a brother/sister to listen with you

Here are today’s stories:

P1-3 Miss Bull has shared a wonderful story from her home.

One thought on “Thursday 26th March”

  1. I am very excited about the David news (and I know Class 2 will be as well) and will definitely be keeping my eyes peeled 🙂

    Hope you are all well Class 1!
