Good Moring Starlings.
Today we are going to celebrate #SaferInternetDay which aims to raise awareness and make the internet a safer and better place for all.
As we are all on this remote learning journey, we are probably spending a lot more time on the internet and so knowing how to keep ourselves safe is more important than ever!
Here are some internet safety tasks that you may wish to complete today:
- Watch Detective Digiduck as he discovers that the information he finds on the internet might not always be true.

- Make your own Digiduck poster explaining how you can stay safe online – you can use the template attached to our blog or design your own.
- Sometimes being online becomes too much and it is important to take a minute, switch devices off and talk to a grown up or do something calming and relaxing. This video might help you:
I’ll also be available for a ‘chat’ on the Class Discussion and Homework page. Please continue with your home learning on maths, writing, phonics, spellings and a fitness activity. There’s also Open The Book for Worship and a story for you to enjoy.
Maths
Today, we are starting a new topic of Weight and Volume and we are comparing the weights of objects. If you like, you could make your own balance scales out of a coat hanger, some pegs/string and pots – see instructions attached. Please see the PowerPoint attached or follow the link to the YouTube video:

Today you are going to be revising capital letters. Have some fun matching up lower and upper case letters – I have attached some if you’d like to print them off and play. Please see the PowerPoint attached or you can follow the link to the YouTube version:
