As you will be aware the schools close to pupils today. For the 2 weeks between now and the Easter holidays the children have been issued with a pack of work and various activities to keep them busy.
Children who are at school today will take their packs home with them and those who are currently absent can arrange for these packs to be collected from school (as long as you’re not self isolating) or delivered next week.
I will explain what is in the pack here and in another post links to a variety of learning websites we use in class that the children are used to and can work on independently to allow you mums and dads some time to yourself 🙂
- Home learning activities sheet – you can pick and choose from these as appropriate. I will award a point for the person who completes the most between now and Easter (photographic evidence required!)
Health and wellbeing tasks –
- a wellbeing tracker grid to monitor exercise, sleep, healthy eating etc
- Yoga and meditation activities (an online links page and a sheet that can be used if you do not have access to videos online)
- some mindful colouring sheets (good for quiet time)
Literacy tasks –
- short texts with reading comprehension questions (we are currently unable to send home reading books)
- handwriting practice worksheets (make sure to follow the direction of the letter)
- a phonics spelling booklet looking at the different long vowel sounds
- a jotter for keeping your out of school diary (task on the home learning sheet)
Maths tasks-
- various worksheets practicing addition, subtraction, multiplication and division as appropriate
- you already have sumdog login details but I will share these again
- various maths games (links to follow)
- some children who attend maths in other classes will have other activities and should keep a check on their mainstream class blog for any additional tasks
Please share comments, photos and videos of your learning on the blog. This will be a nice way for the children to keep in touch with their friends.
