Ms.Spain's Group: 27th April - 1st May

Ms.Spain's Literacy Group:
27th April – 1st May

I hope everyone is doing well and as always, if you have any questions or if there is anything I can help you with please let me know on see-saw.
I would love to hear from you!

Please continue to do the following everyday:
1.     Spellbound (2 exercises a day)
2.    SNIP Booklet (1 exercises a day)
3.    Comprehension booklet (1 comprehension a day)
4.    Choose a book at the start of the week and read aloud from this everyday. 
     It is so important that we read everyday so try to keep this up!  
     Remember, there are some lovely short books on the Oxford Owl website, if you are finding it hard to get onto this let me know and I will explain.

If someone at home could test you on your spellings on Friday, that would be great. I know it is hard to do schoolwork at home but you are all doing great so far! Do your best to get the work done but if you are having any problems please let me know. Looking forward to seeing your lovely work or hearing about any books you are reading. Have a great week 

Work for 20th April to 24th April 2020


Hey everyone,

I hope you all had a lovely Easter Break! 

I'll be posting work weekly for the children to do. If you read this post to the end, hopefully it will make sense to everyone! :) 

You'll find links at the end of this post to access the work each day!

We had a great number of parents and children engaging with Seesaw and uploading photos and videos of your work and various different activities you've been doing. I've loved reading messages about what you are getting up to! <3

As with the work assigned before Easter, there is no pressure to complete all or any of this work.

I would recommend that children try do some Numeracy and Literacy (Maths and English) everyday, if possible. Revision of tables and reading books for pleasure, would also be very beneficial! There are lots of links on the school website to Maths Games and Online Readers.

I've included plenty of work, while some children might do it all, other children might prefer to pick what they want to do out of it, whatever suits! 

I know it might be a bit tricky as we aren't using worksheets or our usual books, I've tried to organise work that can be written into your copies easily! I know there were copies given out to children in the stationary packs, but you can continue to use the copy you brought home initially, so everything is kept together!

An outline of the week's work is below.
Each day is in a different blog post (also linked below).

Any queries, let me know on Seesaw!!
