Time for the weekend!

Thank you to everyone who has contributed and worked so hard on your learning in the classroom today. I have seen some great reflection and analysis of different diary entries. Next week, you will have the chance to use all of the skills you have been learning in a final write.

One amazing piece of learning that I have to share with you today is from Pranav. Having studied the Tudor family tree earlier in the week, he has now created his own family tree. It is awesome – well done Pranav!

Remember that the classroom is closed over the weekend. It is really important that you have a well earned break and remember that you are not expected to be working late into the evening. Aim to be online during normal school hours only.

Enjoy the weekend and see you again on Monday.

Busy Day!

It has been a really hectic day looking after children in school and keeping up with the fabulous learning you have all been doing over in the classroom!

In 3P There have been some lovely diary entries based on the class text. Alfie, Shashank and Cole used some lovely word choices to make their entries very realistic and enjoyable to read. This is Cole’s entry:

In 3L, Arwa, Nikita and Phoebe also used the text to write excellent character descriptions of the chef. Well done!

Remember that the finger spelling challenge is now running. I saw Jamilia do a brilliant job in school and she managed to get to level 3 so far. Can you beat her? She is working on reaching Level 5 by the end of the week. There are prizes up for grabs!

Have a great evening.

Thank you.

Thank you for working so hard today Year 3. I have enjoyed looking at your learning.

Cole and Pranav have done some great analysis of different portraits of Elizabeth I. There were some excellent observations of how they were similar and different. Pheobe, Ashton and Nikita also did some great comparisons of how their lives are different to that of Edward VI.

Anez and Shashank did some great work with subtracting money and solving problems in Maths and Sumika and Bradley also did brilliant work on their spellings of the Year 3 spelling lists.

Pranav sent me a great video of the VE Day songs you were given to practice last week and I also received this picture of Darcy preparing an afternoon tea for her celebrations at home. There was also lots of home-made bunting from Cole and Nikita. Well done everyone who took part and I hope you had a great time.

Have a great evening and I will see you all tomorrow.

Making a tally

F2 have been learning about recording information. They have made bar charts and interpreted them. They have also been learning about tally marks and how to make them. Well done to all those children who have created their own tally charts.

Pyjamarama.

What a great day. There have been so many great pictures shared with me of places you have been reading or book covers that you have created. It has been lovely to see them. Here are just a few examples. I’m sorry if I haven’t shared yours but the blog would go on forever if I included all of them!

I hope you have enjoyed some of the different activities you have had the chance to do. Next week is the week building up to the 75th anniversary of VE Day in World War 2. Watch out for tasks linked to this that will build up to you having your own mini-party at home in celebration.

Remember we are now going in to the weekend so please do not log in to the classroom for the next two days – there is no expectation for you to log in at all. Also remember to log in during school hours only. You really do not need to be in the classroom at 7 o’clock at night! You need a break as well!

Have a great weekend and stay safe.

Well done.

It has been a busy day again. One thing that I would ask though is to make sure you are actually logging in to ReadTheory, Epic or TTRockstars at least twice a week each. A few people have said they have logged in but they hadn’t. Please keep logging in regularly. In 3P Here are the top 3 most improved on TTRockstars for this week. Did you make top 3?

30-4-20 Certificates

There has also been some excellent examples of home learning going on. Esther has been making Tudor Rose inspired biscuits this week. They look fabulous!

Nikita has also created some Royal Crests inspired by the Tudors. Really impressive!

Please keep trying hard and sending in pictures of your learning – I do really love to see them.

If you have a moment to check out the birthday video for Colonel Tom Moore on the website, please do. It is very emotional. Tomorrow is Pyjamarama day. Please look it up to find out more about it but there are activities to do as an extra challenge tomorrow that you will hopefully find fun. You are even encouraged to stay in your pyjamas all day!

Enjoy your evening and stay safe.
