Good morning everyone, I hope you are all keeping well and got a chance to use the Discussion tool on our website. Did you get to make a video in support of Chester Zoo? What is your favourite animal there? Maybe you could log onto the discussion to tell me.
Also have you had a look at these amazing activities about the Ocean.
Save our Zoo
We have been asked by Chester Zoo to help share our children's voice by making little video clips at home of around 20 seconds. I know Mrs Evans has already emailed everyone (I will attach her letter again) and her children have posted some videos on Twitter. Please take a look at these and record your own video today. Please send it via admin (admin@lostockgralam.cheshire.sch.uk) to Mrs Evans.
ENGLISH
Over the next few days we are going to have a go at some different activities using the attached booklet ‘The Gadgets’. We will start today by looking at codes. Commence with the code activities on pages 2 and 3. Then listen to the modelled piece of writing and read page 4. Finally for today I would like you just do Activity 1 on page 5.
MATHS
Today we will look at Finding a rule with one and two steps. Please follow this link.

I will also attach the Maths at Home booklet that you might like to have another go at.
See the attached Home Learning Timetable for our project work on the Maya Civilisation
Message from Mrs Powell
Some of you are returning to school but we need to remember lockdown is hard for everyone. Talk about their feelings to someone special at home and to try to understand that everyone is finding this time difficult in some way. Have a look at this video: https://youtu.be/-RXF5-29VGU
You may wish to use the following prayer.
Dear God,
During this time of lockdown,
Please help us to think about others and their needs.
Help us to be kind and helpful.
Help us to talk openly about our feelings
So that together, we can grow stronger and closer.
Amen.
Don’t forget to have a go at using the new ‘Discussion’ tool on our school website, even if it is just to say a quick hello. Remember this will be our new way to allow you to share your lovely work with me and ask me any questions.
Here is a story for you to enjoy, read by myself – Oi Cat! By Kes Gray https://youtu.be/IEB5oavzP_U
Best wishes from Mrs Downing, Mrs Whittingham & Mr Beswick and keep smiling, we are so proud of you all.
