Wednesday 11th November 2020 - Work for Children in Self-Isolation

Good morning!

I hope you are still keeping safe, well and sane at home. Self-isolation can be tough, so make sure you take some time to do something just for fun today!  School work is important, but so is your wellbeing, so make sure you are getting the balance right.  As always, if you need any help or support, please let the office know and I will be in touch after I've finished teaching for the day.

Here are your challenges for today:

Maths

We are continuing with the White Rose Multiplication Videos today, as their scheme of work reflects what we are learning in school.  There are activity sheets in the 3V Home Learning Folder as usual. 

Literacy

Our work on the letter to Mr Twit also continues today.  Again, the lesson slides and resources are in the Home Learning Folder for you to use.  Today, we are refreshing our memories about how to set out a letter correctly, and drafting an opening paragraph. There is also a reading comprehension activity in the folder for you to complete.

As it's Wednesday, it's also the day of your spelling test!  Hopefully, parents and carers will be able to test you at home.  Your spellings for next week are in the folder for you to practise from tomorrow.

RE

In RE, we are continuing our work on Hinduism.  Today, we will be reading the story of Rama and Sita, which is an important element of the Hindu festival of Diwali.  At Diwali, it is traditional for children to watch a puppet show telling the story of Rama and Sita, so we will be having a go at acting out the story with our own puppets in class.  You could watch a shadow puppet show of the story here to complement your learning, and perhaps make some paper puppets yourself so that you can perform the story for your family.

I hope you have a great day!

Mrs Vaqueiro
