This week our learning will be as follows;

• In English we will continue with our work based on Noah Barleywater Runs Away. We will write poems based on a poem called Winter Trees by George Szirtes as well as rehearsing and creating a drama based on Noah’s entry to the toy shop.
• We have started a fun writing activity at school which you can access at home to write creatively and build children’s stamina for writing again. Feel free to use these with your child to support their writing at home.https://www.pobble365.com/ We started by writing using the story starter Darth Vader’s Dream Car
• In Maths we are learning to add and subtract 4 digit numbers.
• In Science we will begin to learn about the water cycle.

Login details are stuck in the children’s homework diaries and the children have been given a demonstration of how to log in. Children attending school should complete the homework section only. For anyone continuing to have problems logging in to Google Classroom, the homework for the next 4 weeks has been sent to you directly via email. The remote learning section is for children who are self isolating. [/dropshadowbox]
