Happy Friday Everyone!
Well done for all your fantastic learning this week. We know it has been a bit different to normal times – but keep going you are doing great. We will explain the structure on here each day but please refer to the additional uploaded documents for each specific lesson guidance and resources.
Sumdog – Well done to the 10 children who have had a go at the new Sumdog challenges this week. We would love to see everyone have a go at the challenges set for next week. Sumdog can be a great way to consolidate learning and practise your spellings.
Reading
It is essential that children continue to read every single day. This should be for a minimum of 20 minutes.
Oxford Owl – This resource has an exciting range of carefully levelled books to help children learn to read, and love to read.
If parents and children decide to use this resource, we ask they access phase 5 books. Go to https://www.oxfordowl.co.uk/ and select ‘my class login’. Scroll down to the red box ‘eBook Library for Letters & Sounds’

Resources for questioning your child while they are reading
Maths
Today we are going to focus on selecting the correct amount. I have uploaded an additional document named 'CHALLENGE'. This is only intended as extension work to challenge and push your learning. You are not required to complete this sheet. The WhiteRose sheet is more than enough. Make sure you watch the video carefully and pause to answer questions on the worksheet.
Please follow the link and complete the worksheet attached to the class blog.
1. Watch the video (either on your own or with your child).
2. Find a calm space where your child can work for about 20-30 minutes.
3. Use the video guidance to support your child as they work through a lesson.
Complete on the sheet (if you have a printer) or write your answers in your home learning book.
Sumdog
Sumdog can be played from home, as well as in the classroom. To log in from home, students use the same details as they do in class.
Log in at www.sumdog.com
Additionally, students can access Sumdog via the app, which are free to download and play. In both cases, they'll need an internet connection.

Computing
This term we are focuisng on coding in Computing. On the additional documents you will find your child’s individual code for the programme we use. The website is called Code.org. It should work on your tablets. If you do not have one, school will be happy to loan one out to you whilst you are off. Once your child has their unique login they will be able to access the programme on code.org by following the instructions on the document.
- Each child will have the same 6 letter section code – FMSQGM, they will then search for their name, choose their secret picture and then press the sign in button.
Today please complete the following lesson:
- Course B (2020)
