Good Morning,

Here’s another installment of Fantastic Mr Fox for you (I say ‘It’s Friday’ at the beginning because it was when I made the video! Don’t worry, it’s still Tuesday!)

Hello there P5,

We should be going back to school today but the lockdown continues. At least the sun is shining! I hope you are all happy, healthy and safe xxx

Would you like to read a story with me this week?

I’ve made videos of me reading Fantastic Mr Fox – here are chapters 1-3, I’ll post the next ones tomorrow for you. You can read along with me.

More tomorrow!

Hello boys and girls,

It’s the end of TERM 3! I  would love to have spent what would have been our last school day before our Easter holiday break doing something fun together.  In order to stay safe we have to stay at home but  we can still  relax and do things we enjoy with our family.

Here are a few things to help keep you busy-

Numeracy

Try these number word problems

Literacy

A homophone is a word that is pronounced the same as another word but has a different meaning and may differ in spelling.

Circle the correct homophone to complete these sentences.

1. We are not allowed/aloud to talk during assembly.
2. ‘Please welcome our most esteemed guest/guessed,’ announced Mrs Harker as the famous sportsman entered the assembly hall.
3. I wish I could eat my favourite serial/cereal every morning but mum says it is too sweet.
4. After learning about rattlesnakes and scorpions, I am in no hurry to visit a desert/dessert.
5. As the heard/herd of wilderbeast grazed, a solitary lioness crept up on the weakest member.
6. I decided to make my father/farther breakfast-in bed for his birthday.

I won’t be posting on the blog over the Easter holidays so remind your parents to add St Alberts on Facebook and twitter which will let them keep in touch with other families and the teachers.

Hello boys and girls,

Happy Tuesday! It’s another sunny day so why not get some fresh air. I started power walking yesterday as well as doing the Joe Wicks workout to make sure I stay fit. Let me know how you are staying active.

Literacy- Film literacy

Watch this short film

Focus on colour, music and movement.

Can you tell if the house is happy or sad.How do you know?

Be the illustrator. Draw a time in the film when the characters are:

Upset

Curious

Nervous

Happy

Enjoy your day and leave a comment if you watched the film.

Take care

Hello boys and girl,

I hope you had a lovely weekend and managed to go outside for a short time and play in the beautiful sunshine.

Keep following Joe Wick’s daily workout on youtube or try the PE challenge below-

Before school broke-up the class made up a fantastic rap based on the song Dance Monkey by Tones and I. Perhaps you might like to pick another one of your favourite songs and make up your own rap. You could post it on the blog and share it with the class.

Remember hand washing, social-distancing and staying at home will save lives.

Missing you all so much,

Mrs Hughes

Hello boys and girls,

Day 4 of no school and I’m really missing all you little chatter boxes. I know that you all enjoy being read to so why not go online and listen to David Walliams reading a chapter of one of his fantastic and funny books. Follow this link-

Elevenses with The World of David Walliams

Also remember to login and use sumdog to help improve your numeracy skills.

Hello boys and girls,

I hope you and your families are all well. How are you feeling about not coming to school because of the coronavirus?  Why not make a comment on the class blog and let me know what you are doing to keep busy. I am trying to remain as active as possible by power walking once a day and following the Joe Wicks workout. It’s really tough but worth doing.

Are you remembering to do something from your home learning pack everyday? Try to do things that you enjoy and read a book that interests you.  During our class writing lessons you created different characters and settings. Perhaps you could write a short story about losing  your freedom to go to school and do what you want because of the coronavirus.

If you do anything that you want me to see or have any questions you can email me at-

I am really missing seeing your lovely smiling faces every morning.

Mrs Hughes
