Good morning! I hope that you have had a good weekend and are all well. Well, this is an interesting week! Some of you will be coming back to school for the first time in ages! If you are not coming back - don't worry, we will keep in touch on here and with some extra little things!
Just a reminder, if you are in school, you will do some of this learning with me and some of the learning at home. It is important that you do the learning on the right days now because it may be that I ask you to start something at home on a Monday or Tuesday and then we will carry it on in school on a Thursday and Friday - or the other way round for the other group.
So, if you are in school on Thursday and Friday this week, it is important that you do Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday's learning at home so you are in the right place on Thursday when you come into school.
I haven't put exercise on your timetable but by now you know it is important to do some every day! You may want to try some of these workouts created by your friends last half term (links below) ....
Have a great week!
Here is your timetable for learning this week... enjoy!

Topic: This week’s theme - History I would like you to spend one hour each day this week carrying out your own research about Bramhall - it is where many of us live and where we all come to school. Bramhall has an interesting history - I have put some useful links below to get you started. This week is all about finding things out - making notes, going out exploring with a grown up, taking photographs, sketching interesting things, visiting historical sites etc. In Google Classroom, I have put a post linked to this task - you will need to use the blank Google Docs sheets attached to it to collate your notes, paste images, photos of your sketches etc You need to use this Doc so that you can carry on with you research both at home and school without bringing things back and forth - you will be able to open it at home and open it at school. (I will also be able to see your note-making hee hee!) https://maps.cheshireeast.gov.uk/tithemaps/ https://www.ilovebramhall.com/history-and-facts/ http://www.bramhallweb.co.uk/visitors-centre/local-history/ https://www.thornber.net/cheshire/htmlfiles/bramall.html https://www.stockport.gov.uk/about-bramall-hall I am sure you can find other useful information, too Next week we will be thinking about how we present all of our research.
