Summer Learning Ideas

If you are looking for some summer learning activities, these are a few things you could try.

* Have a look at the lockdown learning challenge videos on the COVID 19 tab on our website. There are lots of different videos for you to watch from different teachers across the school! Enjoy dipping in and out over the holidays!

* Why not write a recipe book? You could bake some wonderful creations and record the method used so that you can go back and remake the best ones!

* Choose a topic (different types of transport, food tastes, current events – you could cover almost anything within reason) and get out and about to discover the data. Create a tally chart and then make a graph.

* Explore symmetry in nature and then create your own pictures.

* Water balloon maths game ... https://www.notimeforflashcards.com/2013/05/water-balloon-game-math-activity-for-kids.html

* Outside number line games... https://www.notimeforflashcards.com/2014/03/outdoor-number-line-activity.html

* Writing activity ideas... https://www.startwithabook.org/summer-writing#poetree

* Write a story and create your own book.

* Create a cartoon strip.

* Retell your favourite story using your teddies.

*Write a postcard and post to us using the school address!

* Do the library summer reading challenge!

* Write a picnic shopping list, make a picnic and then eat it in the park with your family.

* Go strawberry picking.

* Make a mud pie.

* Make a bird feeder for the garden.

* Facetime a friend and play Guess Who.

We hope you have a wonderful summer and get to spend some quality time together. We look forward to seeing you all in September

Hello Year One, 

Can you believe it is week 7 of the final summer term??? It still feels strange writing July. Here are your home learning packs for the week beginning the 13th July. We hope you enjoy your learning! 

Have a great week, 

Mrs Sykes and Mrs Solomon 

Apologises, I uploaded the wrong version of the English and Maths for week 7 (the English was missing). I have now uploaded the correct version. 

Hello Year 1, 

Here are your learning packs for week 6 (July 6th 2020). We hope that you enjoy this learning. There are dance challenges, community challenges, caring challenges...

We'd love to know how you get on! 

Keep smiling, 

Mrs Sykes and Mrs Solomon 

Home Learning for Term 6 week 5 (29th June 2020) 

Hello all, 

This week you will find 2 documents. The first document has your home learning lock down challenges and the second has Maths and English work for you to complete. We hope these challenges make you smile, relax and enjoy some time together as a family or a school bubble. We would love to see some photographs of the things you are doing at home. We hope you are well and happy. 

Keep Smiling, 

Mrs Sykes and Mrs Solomon  

Morning Everyone,

Can you believe this rain!? We hope you have had a good week and have managed to get out in the fresh air between the downpours! We are all missing you and thinking of you lots. Have a lovely weekend!

Mrs Solomon and Mrs Sykes 

We hope you are enjoying the home learning! Mrs Sykes and I have been in school getting everything ready for you for next week! For those who are not in next week remember to keep in touch with your lovely messages and learning it really makes our day.

Mums, Dads and Carers you are doing really well, we are thinking of you and as parents ourselves know it can be a struggle some days! Hang in there and remember do what you can, if it is a tough day then feel free to have a day off/ time off and come up for air. We are missing you all very much, stay safe and look after yourselves.

Best wishes,

Mrs Solomon and Mrs Sykes

Hello All,

We'd love to see some photos of what you are doing, remember you can email them to the school admin, they really brighten our day. This week you will be continuing to develop your knowledge of money. You will have the opportunity to explore many of the curriculum areas through the story of 'Giraffes can't Dance.' One of our favourites! Remember that the spellings for term 6 are saved with the term 6, week 1 work. Keep up with the great work.

Keep Smiling,

Hello Year One,

We hope you are having a wonderful half term - we have been very lucky to have such gorgeous half term weather! Have you done anything nice? We are very lucky to have so many fabulous places to explore on our doorstep. We have uploaded your home learning for next week. We are looking forward to seeing your poems, money work and fantastic creative things that you achieve this week. You will see that this weeks marks the anniversary of the Queens coronation and so you have the opportunity to discover some modern history, I wonder if there is anyone in your family that can remember the coronation? We hope you enjoy your home learning and we really look forward to seeing the photos of what you achieve! You will also see that term 6 spellings are also uploaded and so have a look through and pick the spellings that give you an appropriate challenge. Don't forget that we also have our show and tell section and so you're welcome to send us your show and tell!

Keep smiling,

Mrs Sykes and Mrs Solomon

Hello Year One,

What a term it has been! We hope you are all well and have enjoyed the fantastic weather we have had!

Well done with all your home learning, you have produced some beautiful, creative and carefully created learning, we are super proud of you. You all (including the grown-ups) deserve a restful break during half term and hopefully this weather will continue!

Hello to our Year One Family,

We hope you are all well and enjoying the wonderful weather that we are having today? It has been an absolute pleasure to talk to you all this week. Thank you for sharing with us all the things that you have been getting up to. There is such a wonderful variety of learning going on! Keep sending those brilliant photos, it really cheers us.

This week we will get started on our show and tell gallery, please send us your brilliant show and tells. This is your chance to show us the things you can't normally bring to school!!

Your home learning this week gives you the opportunity to explore something that you find really interesting and create a fact file.... I wonder how much you will be able to teach us through your fact files?! We want you to really enjoy your reading and so have a look at your book shelf and see if you can find your all time favourite book!  Year One love their maths work and so this week you are going to explore doubling and halving. I wonder what you will enjoy doing from this learning pack...

This week we have listening to milkshake on gonoodle... it really makes a laugh! If you all need to laugh, google it and enjoy!

Keep smiling everyone, talking to you and your families made us smile,

Mrs Sykes and Mrs Solomon

Morning Year One,

We hope you have enjoyed the lovely sunshine for the last few days! Thank you so much for sending in your amazing learning, it has been so lovely to see your wonderful ideas! Today is VE Day so we hope to see lots more lovely photos of how you have spent the day celebrating! Here is a link to Damn Vera Lynn who was a song writer and actress during the war. She sung songs for the troops outside to all the soldiers to cheer them up and give them hope. Here is a link to her song, we hope you enjoy it and hope to "Meet again" soon!

Stay safe and happy and thinking of you lots,

Mrs Solomon and Mrs Sykes
