Morning Superstars!

First things first, well done for all the hard work you have put in this week!

Later today there will be a gallery of photographs that have been sent to me showing lots of hard work and fun going on!

Here is today’s list of suggested activities:

- GoNoodle -

- Phonics -

Use spelling shed to practice the ‘a-e’ and ‘i-e’ sounds and also a red challenge. Remember your logins are found in your reading record books and your password should be class1

- Maths -

Follow this link here to have a look at this file. Here you will find some warm-up questions to try and some at the end to work out in your remote learning books.

- Break -

- PE -

See if you can do things like star jumps, high knees, heel flicks, press ups and sit ups to warm up.

We are working on cricket at the moment, so, find a safe place to practice some ball skills.

Try throwing and catching to one another, looking for an accurate underarm throw and a 'cup' used when catching.

Put a tea towel down on the floor and see if your child can bounce the ball on the towel from a set distance away. Too hard, move closer, too easy, move further away.

Set up some makeshift wickets using whatever you have lying around, throw the ball overarm to try and hit the wickets.

Obviously, in cricket you would use a bat, but, if there isn’t one just lying around, you can use any type of racquet or bat type equipment. Try to hit a ball thrown to you. Try to aim for different areas and hit the ball into that place. Remember to watch the ball all the way to you and try to stay balanced.

- Lunch -

- RE -

Who brings us messages?

Last year, I went to the beach and found this...



A message in a bottle!


Chat about these questions.

How the message got inside the bottle? 

How did the message get here? 

Why didn’t the person who wrote it bring it?

What it might say? 

What would you do next? 

 Explain that a message is a piece of information or a request that you send to someone or leave for them when you cannot speak to them directly.

This is extremely useful at the current time. Over Easter time, could the children write a message to someone special?

- Break -

- Golden Time -


After a week of hard work, time to relax and have some fun!

Here is the challenge from Miss H for today! From Monday, all challenges are going to be posted on the school blog. Miss H will still post the creations that get sent to us. Remember to email us your creations! Here is the tower I made at my Grandma's house, can you beat it? If you don't have Lego, don't worry any construction material will do … 

  

Well done everyone, children and grown-ups alike!

Thank you for your support!

Stay safe!

Cheers,

Mr. H.

Some of the red words are are throwing up a ‘space’ as a letter option. If you put these at the end of the word it takes it as correct. Little more difficult in the Extreme level unless you make note of which words do/don’t have the space from the other levels.
