I hope you are having a good week. I want to say a big thank you to the boys and girls who have been emailing & tweeting us pictures. (A bigger thank you to the parents for helping them!) It is so lovely to see what you have been doing at home. It really does make all the teachers smile.
Mrs Grant and I log into Sumdog, First News and Study ladder everyday and can see who is working really hard so keep up the good work!
Today is April Fools’ Day so below is a link to some information about what different countries around the world do to celebrate.
Good morning boys and girls. I hope that you are all well. Today we begin a new month – April. Can you say your days of the week and months of the year to someone in your family?
Try to begin your day with some exercise to wake you up and get your minds working. Perhaps try some Cosmic Kids Yoga ( I know that you all enjoy that) or Joe Wicks or Go Noodle.
Literacy – Practise all of your sounds and phonemes “sh, th, ch and ng” – try to write down two words for each phoneme. We will look at some new phonemes after Easter. Remember that you can sing along to the Jolly Phonics songs on YouTube.
Numeracy – Practise counting to 30 orally, count forwards and backwards. Here is a fun game that you can revise your addition and subtraction to 10.
Your Caterpillars are making great progress, they climbed to the top of the cup and became chrysalides – this is the hard shell that forms around the caterpillar. My boys enjoyed helping to move the chrysalides into their new home – the butterfly garden. Now we must wait for 7-14 days to see the amazing transformation that is taking place inside.
Have a great day! Keep working on your grids and Sumdog games. I’d love to see some more pictures of you.
I cannot believe that April has arrived. It is of course April Fool’s Day, be kind to your family!

It could be about your pet, your hobby, a country, a famous person, a planet, a sport that you love, an era in history. You choose! Remember to gather information from a variety of sources before organising your Power Point. Feel free to share your work.
Remember that you can select and adapt tasks suggested to suit your circumstances. However, it is important to continue to push yourself and keep your amazing brains active throughout the day.
