School closure / self-isolation learning

Learning at home

 

Please try to complete: 

 

1 x age appropriate learning project per week

5 x reading aloud per week 

 

We are sending home spare exercise books and extra support tools for parents in learning packs to support this online learning. 

 

Times table rock stars learning - if we are closed, teachers will challenge you!!

See if you can have a go at the non-screen and science activities at your own pace. We will keep adding more activities each week. Also try to make sure you are getting some exercise - this is really important, especially in difficult times. We are going to hopefully stream some live workouts for children to do at home if they want. Keep an eye on our Facebook page.

 

We are advising for safeguarding reasons that individual mobile phones are kept from children during school hours as normal (unless supervised). This is obviously up to parents, but we would like to suggest this to help prevent a surge of issues for children with online bullying and also help stop the spread of panic or concern for the children during this time. 

 

We have also put together a suggested timetable to use (of course this is optional). Our staff thought this may be useful to give some structure and routine. 

 

We will update this page regularly and add more projects week by week. 

Over the Easter break, we will be not be posting daily maths or English activities on Seesaw or approving posts, in the spirit of this being a national holiday. However, we have created the above Easter challenges for the children and try at home. Of course, they can still post their creative inventions, performances and hard work on Seesaw and we look forward to seeing them after the break.
