Home learning work

Children who are working from home have produced such great work I wanted to show what some of them have been doing.

Star of the week!

I have thought and thought about who could be star of the week and I have decided to choose

Saeed

Saeed has been working so hard at home. He completes his work on Purple mash and sends photographs to show what he has been doing at home.

Well done Saeed you deserve this so much!

How do I feel to be back at school?

In PSHE, the children at school thought about how it feels to be back at school.

Hello Yellow Class, I hope you have had a lovely weekend with your families.

We read the story "AHHH!" said stork.

We made a stork using different materials, then described the stork using different adjectives.

We are back at school and keeping ourselves very busy.

Home learning at home only

Hello Yellow Class children at home.

If you are working at home you can still go on Purple Mash for work to do.

You can listen to the story

"AHH!" said stork

Think about the story.

Where did the story take place?

What were the animals trying to do?

What would you do to open the egg?

Hello Yellow Class

A huge thank you to all the parents and children who I spoke to.

It was really nice to hear your  voices again.

It really warmed my heart!!*

Star of the Week

'David and Amelia '

These two children have impressed me with the work they have done on Purple mash.

Their written work has improved so much and I can see they both have thought about their work and what they wrote.

Dear Parents/Carers, 

SCHOOL CLOSURE VIDEO

We are asking Year 1 children to send us in short video clips (15-30 seconds) of what they are doing at home - some suggestions might be:

Having breakfast together

Doing exercise

Online lessons

Home schooling with parents

Doing craft activities 

Reading to a parent

Watching a teacher's video at home

You can also talk to the camera and send messages such as; thankyou message to teachers or telling us how they're missing their friends. 

Star of the Week!

Well done Mehmet

Mehmet is 'Star of the Week' because he has been very busy at home with his family.

He has also sent me a few emails to keep me in touch with what he has been doing.

Hello Yellow Class

A big thank you to the children who have sent me an email using 2Email on Purple Mash.

It was really nice to hear from you. 

If you haven't sent me an email, don't worry you can still send one or two.

You can send me an email anytime on 2Email and tell me what things you and your family are doing.

Star of the Week!

First, I would like to say 'Well done!' to all the children in Yellow Class who have been using Purple Mash to do their homework.

This has not been an easy decision to make.

I am choosing Zeynep for 'Star of the Week' because after a little reminder she went on Purple Mash for the first time and completed her homework with the help from her brother.

Well done Zeynep!

Have fun reading!

Our new Creative Curriculum topic is 'Toys'.

We looked very closely at some toys and had to decide how they moved.

Our second Creative Curriculum topic is

'Kings and Queens.'

We are looking and finding out information about Queen Elizabeth 2nd and her family.

Our first Creative Curriculum topic is 'My family and where I live'.

Thank you for bringing in the lovely 'memory boxes'.

We have really enjoyed sharing them in class. It has been a huge talking point and the children have loved showing their things with each other and with other teachers too.

We have been reading the story 'Shark in the park' by Nick Sharratt.

We retold the story using lots of actions.

To see us perform the story with lots of actions.
