Meet Your New Teacher!

14th July 2020Mrs Graves

As this school year comes to an end, we start to think ahead to next year. Our children have been informed who their teacher is going to be next year, had the chance to find out a little bit about them and are hopefully writing about themselves to share with their new teacher.

School restrictions during Covid-19 have made it impossible to complete the transition activities we would normally put in place to support your child with their move to their new class, however we would like to offer all children the opportunity to meet with their new children ‘virtually’.

We have arranged Google Meets on Thursday and Friday with all of our teachers. We have tried where possible to offer two times to avoid clashing times with classes and to provide some choice – children do not need to join both Google Meets.

Meeting joining codes will be shared via email and Google classroom.

Good morning Key Stage One. Today I thought we could have a look at a lovely animation of a beautiful picture book. I know this is one you all love…Owl Babies!

 

Today there are a few tasks to choose from.

-Could you make a lost poster for the owl?

-Could you write a letter to the baby owls telling them that they do not need to worry. Perhaps you could share something that you feel a bit worried about with the baby owls?

– Could you read the story and describe the personalities of each of the baby owls? How do we know what each owl baby is like?

– Could you describe the wood where the owls live. How is it different at day time and night time?

– Could you write a note from the owls’ mum telling them not to worry while she has gone?

Whatever you choose, please remember to email [email protected] with your work!

Who gets the most cookies?

The both get the same as 1/2 is equivalent (the same as) 2/4.

She should have 4 equal groups of 5, she has made the groups unequal.

Thursday 9th July

By Miss Topliss9th July 2020

Good morning Key Stage One.

Today we are going to look at this film as I simply loved it and had to show you!

There is a small bit of the film that might seem a little bit scary but if you watch to the end, I promise everything and everyone is ok. We think it might make you laugh at the end!

The film shows a girl imagining the water in the washing machine to be the sea and her jeans were a shark! I loved how clever this clip was!

Your task today is to draw or write your own imaginary world, made of something that might be true! For example, perhaps you might think about the sky being a big swimming pool? Or perhaps a cardboard tube turning into a great big slide? Perhaps you can be creative with the things you might see in your fantasy world. Did you spot the rocks which were really washing baskets and the fish were socks?

I am sure you will have fantastic ideas with this. Remember to email them over to [email protected]
