Happy Monday!

So looking forward to connecting with you all this week. I hope you all kept busy and safe over the weekend, did anyone do anything exciting??!  Khadija’s Mum sent me some lovely pictures Hector and his Mum Alicia drew outside their home, what a creative way to say hello whilst keeping a safe distance!  

I will, as always be emailing parents to collect in our weekend news work. I really look forward to sharing everyone’s news later today so you can keep in touch with each other.

9:30-10:00: Literacy

 In class 1 we print off the pictures from our weekend and share them with our friends. Then we tell an adult what we’d like to write to accompany the picture, this can be single words or sentences depending on each individual.

Could you do this in one of your jotters? If you don’t have a printer you could draw a picture of something you did instead. Remember it will really help some of us if you dot our words for us to trace like below…

Please remember to send your photos and sentences to me so I can share with everyone later today.

10.00-10.30: If you have time you could also check out Newsround to learn more about what is going on in the world around us.

One of the really important aspects of our daily school life is play. These play based experiences help us make sense of the world around us and also assist in our development of fine and gross motor skills which impacts on our cognitive activity and even our pencil grip etc.

I have attached a suggested activity you could try at home to help develop these skills.
