Today’s lessons:

Other mini sessions that you could complete at any point during the day:

  • Numbots : link
  • Handwriting : cursive letter formation video (This is a YouTube link. Top tip for watching YouTube with your child: go to the settings cog along the play bar and turn off autoplay – this avoids an inappropriate clip coming up automatically, and helps to discourage your child from passively watching clip after clip.)
  • Dance : Learn about the Chinese Lion Dance

Week beginning 22 February 2021

Posted on Friday 12 February 2021 by Mrs Latham

We hope you had an enjoyable break from home learning and are ready to get back to it!

Below you’ll find lessons with videos to follow created by teachers in your school and in other schools in the federation (and a maths lesson from White Rose Maths Hub). There are also links to the spelling list, fluency, RIC, other activities and worksheets to use if you want (they can be printed but don’t have to be).

Don’t forget you can email your own class teacher if you’d like to – we’d be particularly interested in any tasks that you found tricky, or ones that you feel particularly proud of. You can look at the year group above or below if you are finding things too easy/too tricky – we have had to go for a ‘best fit’ approach with these online videos.
