Snow!

Wow! I wasn’t expecting to see all the snow and ice this morning.  Your challenge for today is to go outside and explore the properties of snow and ice.  Some of the questions I would like you to ask include.  “Where do you think the snow came from?”  “What happens when you put it in your hand, why?”  If they notice the water on their hand can you ask them “Where did the water come from?”  They might be able to use the terms melt and freeze.  You could then ask the children “Can you think a way of making ice?”  You could then go on to make ice cubes or ice lollies.  Please keep this exploration fun and don’t forget to send in your child’s responses on evidence me we can’t wait to see them.

Year 2 Home Learning – Thursday 21st January

Hello Year 2! 😊

There will be two live lessons on Thursday, Maths at 9.30am (looking at a place value problem) and Science at 11am (looking at our new topic ‘Materials’).  You should have received an invite for this session however if not, then you can join the meeting through the Teams app. Please come to each meeting armed with paper and a pen to write.

Following the lesson, the worksheets below should be completed.  You do not need to print this sheet but the children will need to see it so they can work out their answers.  These worksheets are differentiated so please choose the correct one for your child.

Thursday Red and Orange (Maths)

Thursday Yellow, Green and Blue (Maths)

Science Blue

Science Red and Orange

Science Yellow and Green

Uses of Everyday Materials Photo Cards (for green, yellow, orange and red group only)

If you are unable to attend the live sessions, a recording of the lesson will always be available afterwards.  Worksheets and any further instructions will be shared via the website. We understand that this is tricky for some of you working from home, especially those with siblings so we understand that it is not always possible to join live. We hope the recordings help to support this. 

Other home learning activities set for today:

Literacy – Can you create a rhyming word bank? We will use this when we are writing a rhyming poem tomorrow.  Complete the table, writing words that rhyme with the word at the top of each column.

Thursday Literacy Blue and Green

Thursday Literacy Yellow, Orange and Red

Spellings – our spellings for this week are words ending in ‘el’.  Please see Mrs Thomas’ website post for today’s activity.

el ending spellings

Google classroom

Despite IT’s best efforts it looks unlikely that we will be up and running for Google classroom today, unfortunately it’s an issue that’s beyond our control.  Please keep your child’s login and email address safe as we will try again as soon as the issue is resolved.

So that you don’t miss out please click on the link below.

Home Learning Feedback

Thank you to the Y4 parents who have completed this survey so far.

If you have yet to do so, please could you complete this survey as soon as possible as it is important that we know your thoughts on the online learning offer in Y4. As this is the first time we have used Google Classroom and Teams for live lessons, it would be interesting to know your views.

https://forms.office.com/Pages/ResponsePage.aspx?id=2s8TOK9SpUy44yMVeXcKujfWR1zrUJ1JhQgacqv0-RBUQUcwTEc3ODlOMlhIMjEyRVVUTVFaVUwzTS4u 

As with all surveys, we analyse them carefully to ensure we are continuing to improve our provision.

Many thanks

Forest School Session 28.01.21

Both of the Y4 bubbles in school will have a Forest School session on Thursday 28th January, which will be led by Miss Taylor. Miss Taylor is Forest School trained and will be carrying out exciting activities with the children such as fire making. Please feel rest assured that this will be carried out safely and will give the children a sense of what its like to sit around a campfire. Please ensure that children bring in their Forest School clothes on this day.  Please note that this is a PE day so children will still be expected to come into school in their PE kits.

Many thanks

Y4
