Home Learning Term 5

We hope you all had a lovely Easter and are coping with the continued restrictions we find ourselves in.

We were hoping to be starting back to school today for Term 5 but unfortunately it is not to be. With the beginning of a new term, the teachers would like to introduce new topics for the children which they could start at home and carry on with when we do finally get back into the classroom.

As a result, you can follow the links on the website which will give you a selection of activities based on a theme. These are not designed to be completed in a week but are more of a project that the children can work on over the next few weeks. We would love to see examples of their work as they complete it. Thank you if you have already shared your children’s activities and work- we have all loved receiving it.

We have registered for a maths scheme to assist the children with their home learning Wootton Bassett – Doodle Class code letter for parents

In addition, there are a number of websites that are offering home-schooling lessons and activities and we have added the links below if you would like to use them.

BBC Bitesize

Don’t hesitate to contact your child’s class teacher (via email) if you have any questions or require any help.

We really look forward to seeing you all again soon,

Best Wishes,

Home Learning Week Commencing 30/03/2020

For this week’s home learning, we would like the children to focus on the topics we have been looking at this term: Dinosaurs, Castles and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. All children can try some of the writing activities: designing and describing a new dinosaur, creating a family coat of arms or designing a new chocolate bar. Year 2 children may wish to also write a recipe for their chocolate bar to explain to Willy Wonka how to make it in his factory.

There is also an activity for one of our school values “Being Kind” where children and their families can celebrate acts of kindness in their households.

Remember to continue reading with your child and practise their high frequency words and spellings.

Keeping Active

At school we get the children outside as much as possible and we would encourage you to do the same. You can find some great ideas for Outdoor Activities

And don’t forget you can practise riding your bike, skipping, going for a walk or just running around in the fresh air. Muddy Puddles also has some great ideas.

There are now many celebrities and fitness instructors including Joe Wicks and the Strictly Dancers that are producing online workouts – try searching on YouTube and get moving!

Hobbies

It would also be a great opportunity for the children to start a new hobby- examples could include knitting, sewing, making dens, looking at flags of the World, Kings and Queens, playing and inventing new board games etc. In addition, it would be great for the children to engage in some sort of physical activity such as making up their own dance or obstacle courses.
