Self Isolation Activities
Myself, Miss Greet and all the school staff have put together some ideas for your child to be working on at home if you are self isolating.
- Keep a diary of your week off school.
- Write a story about a topic of your choice. Perhaps add some illustrations as well.
- Write a book review on one or more of the books you have been reading.
- Create a project about a subject that interests you. Perhaps make a display board, a powerpoint or record a video. Be as creative as you can.
Online Learning
- Keep up with your daily reading, at least 20 minutes a day and remember to use the www.arbookfind.co.uk to check the level of your books.
- Children in Year 2 - Year 6 have access to www.myon.co.uk . This is an online reading resource which teachers can set projects and activities and pupils can use to read for pleasure.
- Please use Spelling Shed as normal, staff will still be setting assignments to work on at home. They can also use their logins to access Maths Shed, via the same website.
- Staff will also set times table practice on Times Table Rock Stars.
Your child's login details should be in their homework books, if you cannot find them or don't know them, please email the office with the subject title - LOGIN DETAILS and we will send them to you.
- There are lots of year group specific ideas and worksheets on www.twinkl.co.uk. Go to www.twinkl.co.uk/offer and input the code UKTWINKLHELPS for free of charge membership. There is a dedicated ‘Parents Hub’ which has lots of educational activities designed for use at home and an ‘EYFS for Parents; area. Additionally, ‘School Closure Home Learning’ packs are also available.
- The White Rose Maths Hub www.whiterosemaths.com/resources/classroom-resources/problems/ release ‘Problems of the Day’ every day and there is access to previous day’s problems. The orange sheet is suitable for KS1 and the blue are for KS2.
- The NRICH maths website has lots of great maths ideas for EYFS. https://nrich.maths.org/13372
- Reception and Nursery enjoy using https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episodes/b08bzfnh/numberblocks with their Maths learning.
It is a strange time at the moment, but no doubt we will be back in school together before we know it. Look after yourselves and we will see you all soon.
