Wednesday 10th June Good morning everyone! We hope that you have had a lovely holiday and enjoyed the fabulous sunshine we had before the weather turned! From now on, our virtual learning will be slightly different so we need you to go and get your grown-up and go through this together … it’s really important that you do this so that everybody is clear about what will be happening….. …..Okay - have you got them with you? Great! Now that more children are coming to school, either in year group cohorts or critical worker groups all of the teachers will be back at school and because virtual learning takes a long time to organise and prepare the way we have been doing it, we need to change it - we can’t all do two full time jobs! We can’t just stop it either because your year group is not returning yet and you are just as important as everybody else!
Enjoy the rest of the week. Love, Mrs Poole and Mrs King

Wednesday 10th June 2020 Reading: 20-30 minutes to yourself - summarise key points in your blue book about the section you read today. Use this as a chance to practise interesting vocabulary, sentence structure, punctuation - transfer those skills! Be clear. Ask an adult to check it and make sure they understand what has happened from your description. Spellings: Ask a grown up to test you on list 28. Write out sentences for your new spellings which can be found in Google Classroom (list 29). Maths: Login to Mathletics. I haven’t set tasks today as I would like you to choose what tasks to do. Please try to spend time on the four rules- addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. History: During the Spring term we did some learning about rivers. One of the BBC Bitesize guides that you read through last half term talked about the River Nile in Egypt. Over the next few days I would like you to do some more research and make notes about the River Nile. Then I would like you to write a leaflet or make a poster to show what you have found out. Try to include answers to the following questions: ~ Where exactly is the river and how long is it? ~ What happened to the river during the different seasons and how long did the seasons last? ~ Why was the river so important to the Egyptians? ~ What other interesting facts can you find out? I have attached some links to websites which you may find useful: https://www.natgeokids.com/uk/discover/geography/physical-geography/nile-river-facts/ http://www.primaryhomeworkhelp.co.uk/egypt/nile.htm https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/topics/zg87xnb/articles/zkkywty/ Additional Learning opportunities - optional but beneficial: TT Rock Stars
