 ‘The Ultimate DrEAM Step Challenge’

Today is the start of ‘The Ultimate DrEAM Step Challenge’ , an inter school competition which is being run by Active Schools and KA Leisure.
Follow this link children to find out more about the competition and how to sign up. It would be great if we could all get involved in the challenge, share photographs throughout the week of you exercising. The competition is also open to all staff members so Mrs Manning will be getting signed up too and sending her steps in each day. Remember to send in some photographs of yourself taking part!

The focus in Week 3 is on developing our numeracy skills. I have scheduled live sessions for all of the maths groups (see the timetable below for your maths group). Mrs Manning will send you a Teams link to your email to join the meeting. It is very important that you try to attend the live numeracy session.

We will be working on some number talks chilli challenge problems and then I will be teaching the new Maths work for the groups. (Circles: square and triangular numbers/Decimals) (Squares and Triangles: revise multiplying 2 digits by 2,3,4,5,10 and multiplying 3 digits by 2,3,4,5,10)

Please have a paper and pencil handy.

Resilience

What is resilience? It is the ability to keep going when things don’t go as we expect, and to have a good way of talking about and thinking about our feelings.

Having resilience means we can look after ourselves and prepare ourselves for whatever might happen.

Failing helps us to learn what doesn’t work

Try ..Fail.. Try Again.. Success

In our live session today we are going to look at the resilience alphabet and choose one of the protective factors this week to work on!
