Good morning SUPER Swallows and welcome back to our class blog.

I hope you are all well and ready for another busy day of super learning. I can’t quite believe that it is Thursday already.

Please see our task list and PowerPoint presentations below to see what your home learning tasks are for today. Please also remember to take a few moments to look at the class discussion page each day where I will be available to ‘chat’ to you about the work that I have set for that day. You can just pop on there to say hi or tell have a little chat with your friends. The children can type in their own messages. It is a lovely, safe way of us staying in touch.

 Maths – Can I find the total?  Please see the talking Power point video linked below.

I know that some of you like to use two devices or open separate tabs so here is a link to the White Rose video shown during our PowerPoint today for if you need it.

Maybe you could make your own little shop today? Can you create price tags and go shopping? How much money would you need to buy two items from your shop?

Here is a game that you could play today. You can learn how to sort coins, order coins or count amounts.

  Times Tables

Please use Times Tables Rock Stars to learn your 2 x table. If you would like your child's log in details, please contact the school office via the admin address and they will email them across to you. Alternatively, you could play ‘Hit the Button’. Please section the 2, 5 or 10 x table.

 

Note: When you log in to TT Rock Stars, please select schools, students and then enter our school name and your login details.

 Writing

Can you understand the vocabulary used in ‘All About Cats’? Can you use our new vocabulary in your own sentences?

Please see the talking PowerPoint video linked below. Like the maths, I have recorded the instructions so just click play and then pause when it is time to complete an activity.  I hope you enjoy learning all about cats today.

  Reading

Please spend some time reading either the school book you took home with you or a book you have been reading at home each day.  Please also remember to use our Oxford Owl website to access reading books online. Here you can access Read Write Inc and other story books at your level.

If you get an adult to sign your reading diary each time you read, you will still be able to collect your raffle tickets when we are back in school.

 

Here is another great resource to access lots of brilliant reading books online.

Children use a QR code to access a range of stories being read by their authors. The link is: https://www.booksfortopics.com/storytime-online To scan the codes, please download the posters attached at the bottom of today’s blog.

 Read Write Inc

Instructions for how to find your RWI learning for today can be found on our English PowerPoint.  Here is the link to the Read Write Inc home page on YouTube. It might help to add this as a favourite so that you can quickly find your Read Write Inc learning each day. Please remember that the website updates at 9:30 each day.  You may notice that the sounds will start to repeat soon. The children revisit sounds many times when we are teaching Read Write Inc in school. We want to encourage fluency. We want the children to be able to read a text containing each sound at speed, without the need to Fred Talk. In order to achieve this, the children need to see each sound several times.  Please continue to focus on the spelling, red word and hold a sentence videos.

Spellings

Our spellings will be on our English PowerPoint each day. Please use your spelling whiteboard and roll and spell game to help you to learn them. We will complete our little spelling quiz each Friday.

 Story

Please have a listen to the next chapter of our beautiful story ‘The Owl who was Afraid of the Dark’. You will find the audio at the end of our English PowerPoint. I will read a little bit of the story to you here each day. 

 Worship

  

Today is our Praise Worship where we get to spend some time singing and signing to some of our favourite hymns. I have chosen one of my favourites today, ‘Shine Jesus Shine’.

Please click on the link to find the video:

 PE

Please complete our ‘Healthy Hearts’ workout video today. Here, you will find some ideas for a circuit of activities to raise your heart rate. This is called circuit training.

Have a fabulous day Swallows and don’t forget to let us know how you are getting on with your learning today on School Spider. I will see you at 9:20 for our Zoom call this morning. Please have a piece of work that you are proud of ready to share with your friends if you would like to.

 

Lots of love from

 

Miss Gillam
