Month: April 2020

During the spring holiday, many Christians celebrated Easter on Sunday 12th April.

It is an important Christian celebration. Tell an adult at home your answer.

Retell the Easter story using a comic strip.

Remember comics are :

bright and colourful

use onomatopoeia (words that make the sound like splash!)

tell the main parts of the story in the correct order

If you need a little reminder about the Easter story you could watch this video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wnbo2AmS3OI

Good morning and welcome back!

It has been a really busy two weeks for us all and I am sure there are lots of interesting and imaginative ways you spent an unusual Spring holiday.

Can you write about what you did over the holiday and email your news to your teacher on GLOW or send a picture on Seesaw? Remember, the purpose of this piece of writing is to be read so include as much detail for your reader as you can! Feel free to attach any pictures of these activities that you would want your teacher to see !

The holiday’s are almost upon us and it is important that they get of to a great start.

We get lots of opportunities to be Pupil of the Day throughout the school year but for adults at home, older siblings and your teachers they don’t get a chance to have a turn.

Today to spread some positivity, it is your job to design a compliment list for a special person. Make sure it is bright and colourful with their name and lots of things they like.

Next, fill that page with as many compliments you can!

Yesterday we were looking at some famous fables.

We learned that a fable is a story about an animal or plant that the writer gives human characteristics, like being able to speak.

The story has a moral that tries to teach the reader a lesson.

Today your challenge is to use what you have learned yesterday to write your own fable. Teach your reader a positive lesson, like always be kind.

Add some beautiful illustrations of your character and don’t forget to send your fable to your teacher!

Mrs Studden has set an art challenge for this week.

Entries must be with her by 5pm today. 

So this afternoon you have time to design and create a piece of artwork of your choice. This could be a sketch, a drawing, a painting or any form you choose.

If you need Mrs Studden’s contact details get in touch with your teacher on Seesaw.

Ready. Steady. CREATE!
