Home work packsDear Parents/carers All of the home work for children to access in their home learning is now on the class pages on the school website as indicated earlier. It was impossible to email to parents due to the sheer volume. It is important to make sure that your child does some work each day for an appropriate amount of time. It is probably best to work on an activity for approx. 30-45 mins dependent on the age of your child. They will work better if they have short breaks. They can then move onto another activity. Reading has been proven to be the most important activity a child can undertake. so please make sure your child reads to you every day for approx. 20-30 mins, again dependent on age. If your child is still an emerging reader, it is equally important for you to read to them. Try to give them a variety of activities each day so that they don't get bored. Some of the activities will take longer than others, so these may be split over a couple of days. There is a phonics Read Write Inc live session each day. This is applicable for Nursery and Reception (set 1 speed sounds ) at 9.30 am and 12.30pm. Reception and Y1 can access the Set 2 speed sounds sessions at 10am and 1pm. Y1 can access Set 3 speed sounds at 10.30am and 1.30pm. The link is www.youtube.com/channel/UCo7fbLgY2oA_cFClg9GdxtQ There is a Joe Wicks PE lesson on youtube at 9-9.30am each morning. This is a great way to start the day! Good luck in your new role as home educators! There should be enough work set on the class pages should be sufficient for the next few weeks. Teachers will be working on future work packs in the forthcoming weeks. Kind regards M Dowell |
