Tuesday 23rd June

By Mrs Graves23rd June 2020

Good Morning,

Another beautiful day ahead of us – hopefully you will get chance to go outside – but wear a hat and sun tan lotion!

We would like you to continue describing the setting in the forest for a Midsummer Night’s Dream –  use your imagination and choose wonderful vocabulary to create a picture in the reader’s mind. You should be able to close your eyes and imagine the place from the description.

Maths we are looking at plotting points on a grid as a bit of revision.

If you haven’t done a Tudor portrait yet, please do one for our gallery and write a biography to go with it – we are putting together the art gallery now and don’t want you to miss out.

Last of all – we are having a BIG QUIZ on Friday at 1:30 – look out for the code to join – it is all a bit of fun!

Have a nice day

Mrs Graves

Good morning! It’s Tuesday…

By Mrs Lewis23rd June 2020

Morning everyone!

I hope you all had a great evening.  It’s going to be such a lovely day, make sure if you go outside you’ve got your sun cream and hat on.

There’s lots to do in our online classrooms so make sure you head on over and let me know how you are today. I’m looking forward to seeing the learning you do today and remember to shout up if you need any help.

Have a great day!

 

End of the day – Monday

By Mrs Lewis22nd June 2020

What a busy day we have had in our online classrooms! There has been excellent work in each class and it’s been great to see and read.

Shout outs today go to William, Shashank, Agrima and Alfie M for their excellent setting descriptions and Shyaw, Bethannie and Alesha for their excellent reasoning and problem solving in Maths. This Plover Posse Award is for you today.

 

I hope you’ve all had a wonderful day, I hope you can get outside and enjoy some of the sunshine that’s left.

See you in the morning, take care!

Monday 22nd June

By Mrs Graves22nd June 2020

Good Morning,
I think the weather is going to get good again this week, so lots of chances to get outside and enjoy it!
We have lovely activity around A Midsummer Night’s Dream planned for you today – so if you didn’t watch it last week, follow the link and make sure you do before you start the English.
Keep practising your times tables and doing you reading on Read Theory or Epic Read.
Have a lovely day!
Mrs Graves

Good morning! Another week ahead…

By Mrs Lewis22nd June 2020

Good morning everyone! I hope you all had a great weekend and enjoyed the sunshine.  I think it’s supposed to stay hot for the next few day so make sure you have your sun cream on so you don’t get burnt (unlike me).

We’ve got another busy week ahead. We’ll be looking at A Midsummer Night’s Dream  in our English and Expedition learning so make sure you have watched the performance because you will need to know about the setting and characters.  We’re carrying on with our multiplication learning in Maths, pronouns in grammar and we will complete the fourth Tudor Tales book.  There is lots to do so make sure you head on over to our Online Classrooms and let me know how you are today before you start your learning.

I hope you all have a great day!

Stay safe.

The end of the week

By Mrs Lewis19th June 2020

What a great way to end the week. It has been a brilliant day and I have seen lots of excellent work.

Shout outs go to Lola and Mohamad for their excellent biographies of William Shakespeare, they really were a treat to read.  Shout outs also go to Esther and Shyaw for their work on the What if Monsters and William for his outstanding review of A Midsummer Night’s Dream. Nik, Ashton, Dalton, Junior and Bethannie have also done some great designs for their own Coat of Arms. Well done to all of you. This Plover Posse Award is for you!

 

I hope you have a wonderful weekend and the sunshine comes out for us all.

Take care and stay safe everyone.  See you on Monday!

Friday 19th June

By Mrs Graves19th June 2020

Good Morning,

 

Well, another Friday has come around – and what a perfect time for a Google Meet – I will be able to share today’s Pride of Plover with you! Make sure you join us 1pm online – Just click this link:https://meet.google.com/lookup/cmuxnm5edz?hs=179 or follow the link from the Classroom stream to go straight to the meet – You don’t have to have your camera or even your microphone on – it would just be good for you to be there to have contact with your friends and to let me know you are OK! I do think about you all so much and wonder how you are getting on!

I have shared an activity on the classroom to help if you are feeling worried at the moment – I have explained it more in a separate post – take a look at it – it is there to help – don’t feel you HAVE to do ALL of the worksheets.

It seems you enjoyed watching a Midsummer Night’s Dream – there are more that you can watch on the BBC IPlayer – which will be your favourite.

Maths Challenge is division and multiplication problems – can you use the bus stop method for division?

Have a lovely day and hope to see you on the meet!

Mrs Graves

Friday feeling

By Mrs Lewis19th June 2020

Good morning everyone, it’s Friday!

We’ve had such a busy week and it’s almost over! As usual there is lots of learning to enjoy in our online classrooms so make sure you head on over and let me know how you are feeling before you make a start.

Today is the last day for our Tudor Portraits so make sure you attach them to your Expedition work on Google Slides and ‘hand them in’ or email them to me at [email protected]. I’m looking forward to seeing what you have come up with.

It’s the last chance of the week to earn a Plover Posse Award. I wonder who will it be today?

I hope you all have a great day!

Are you troubled by the ‘What if Monsters’?

By Mrs Graves18th June 2020

Over the past few months, the television and news have been filled with lots of scary stories. It has been important to understand what we must do to make sure we stay safe, but at the same time it may have started us thinking about difficult questions that can lead to big worries.

These worries are called the ‘What If Monsters’ and for some of us, these they are starting to affect how we feel, how we behave and how we act. We may be getting upset or angry more easily, we may be speaking to our grown-ups differently to how we did before, we may not want to do anything or go anywhere – all because of the What if Monsters,

The good news is that we can beat the What If Monsters  – we will always have questions, and that’s OK, but there are lots of things we can do to prevent the questions from becoming BIG worries.

Log in to the school website and have a look at this Google Slides to find out how you can beat the What If Monsters:

If your grown ups would like the link, please ask them to email Mrs Graves on [email protected] for the Google Slides and activities.

A busy Thursday!

By Mrs Lewis18th June 2020

Well I hope you enjoyed the play of A Midsummer Night’s Dream.  It was lovely to hear so many lovely comments about it.  There are other Shakespeare plays on the BBC iPlayer, so maybe you could watch one of those if you can. A perfect way to spend a rainy afternoon.

Again I have seen some brilliant work, but today I am giving the Plover Posse Award for beautiful manners.  No matter the task, these children always respond with lovely manners. Well done Lola, Ksawery, Syithan, Agrima and Shyaw.  This Plover Posse Award is for you!

I hope you all enjoy what’s left of this rainy day and with any luck the sun will be back out tomorrow…I’m a little bit doubtful!
