SEESAW

It has been amazing to see such a positive response to the activities and challenges that teachers have been setting on our new online learning platform – SEESAW!

Teachers are currently busy scheduling challenges for the children for the summer holidays: there will be two English, two Maths and one topic-based activity uploaded each week.

These are designed to be enjoyable, educational activities that will support your children into their transition to their new year group in September.

As always, your children are at the heart of everything we do, however, during this time, please understand that teachers will be having a break also, so, although we will be smiling at your children’s wonderful contributions, replies to work will be limited during this time.

Thank you for your continued support; we look forward to seeing all of your amazing activities and celebrating them with you in September.

Phonics

Good Morning Everyone!

Today you should be doing your next sound. While in school we completes the ay, ee, igh, ow, oo (book) and oo (zoo) sounds. Once you have watched today’s video why don’t you pick 4 of these sounds, set a 5 or 10 minuet timer and see how many words you can remember and spell during the timer!

Enjoy! Miss Price

DT Day!

Today, we are going to be chocolate creators! Cadbury has released a competition where you can design your own bar of chocolate and they will be picking a winner!

To prepare yourself for such an amazing competition, complete the design sheet with your chocolate invention. You will be asked to design your own chocolate bar wrapper. For this, think carefully about the ingredients that you choose, and how these can be shown on your wrapper. For example, for marshmallows, you may include bubble writing or if you include popping candy you may draw fireworks on your wrapper.

If you would like to take part in the competition, ask an adult first, then find out more details by visiting Cadbury’s website: https://www.cadburyinventor.com/competition.
