In addition to accessing the live lesson and follow up learning each week day, children should also be keeping up with their daily reading and access to Spelling Shed. We suggest 10-15 minutes per day on each of these activities during the current national lockdown.
Children should log in daily to access books in their current book band level on the Oxford Owls Website ( https://www.oxfordowl.co.uk/ )
Our class logins are:
Curie Class - U: 4curie P: Curie
Moore Class - U: 4moore P: Moore
Children can also review books on Purple Mash in a variety of ways - see the link below.
In English this week...
Log in at 10.30am to our Live Lesson on Teams. The resources for our English lesson, including the slides used in the presentation, can be found on the relevant Teams channel (page) alongside the assignment.
Our English learning time in school lasts until 11:50am. Children can use any extra time they have after they've completed the Teams session, the learning set below for the day and their daily reading and Spelling Shed sessions in either writing a book review or other reading linked activity or in exploring some of the options below in the additional support for English section.
Some additional activities and support for English...
