Home Learning Algeria Class
****A message about Y6 Home Learning****
-
With the further partial reopening of school following Government guidelines there will be a change to the home learning on offer to some of our children from Monday 1st June 2020.
With Mrs Darkin, Mr Swindells, Mr Virgoe and Mrs Teakle teaching our Reception, Year 1 and Key Worker children in school full time they will no longer be able to provide the detailed, creative range of home learning activities previously available. Therefore, children (and adults) still working brilliantly at home in Reception Class, Year 1, Year 3 and Year 6 can continue their home learning using the Oak Academy and/or BBC Bitesize websites. As well as this the Science and PE pages are still available to take some learning opportunities from. In addition you can click HERE for a link to the Barefoot website which has many Computational Thinking activities you can do with your children. Although linked to developing computing skills, these are largely about problem solving and do not depend on the use of technology. There are some fun things to try!
The teachers have really enjoyed engaging with you about your work via email and our class pages. Unfortunately it will be incredibly difficult for them to maintain the same level of communication about work being done whilst planning and delivering the teaching and learning in school. Please do understand that if they are unable to respond to emails or display work being done it is not because they don’t value that communication, but because their workload priorities are now back in school. If you have an urgent email that requires a response it would be advisable to email it in to the office so we can ensure it gets to the teacher if need be.

The Oak National Academy schedule consists of a daily video lesson on English, Maths and a foundation subject with follow up activities that can be completed online. This is an excellent resource and offers a straightforward and streamlined curriculum ideal for busy parents.
The BBC Bitesize home learning schedule also provides daily lessons in English, Maths and foundation subjects supported by videos and follow-up activities that can be downloaded/printed to be completed at home. This is also an excellent resource.
I strongly recommend selecting and following just one of these options consistently over the week to ensure a coherent learning progression. Please do send in any work - or upload onto Tapestry - whatever programme of home learning you choose. I will feedback on all work you send in, no matter what it is! :)

All classes are now using Tapestry Learning Journals to keep a record of all your brilliant home learning achievements. Parent should have log in details to your journal to upload photos, documents and videos of your activities across the curriculum. I will use the comment boxes to feedback on how you are doing. Look out for special projects and activities set on Tapestry: see below for details of the May Reading Challenge! :) Contact me or the school office if you do not have a Tapestry log in. |

Ocean Hero is a search engine to use when browsing the internet, like Google, but this browser pledges to help clean the world's oceans of plastic rubbish every time you use it. Ocean Hero works with other eco-organisations to pay people living in some of the poorest regions for plastic waste they have picked from their local shores and taken to a recycling centre. For more information about the Ocean Hero search engine, click on their webpage and on the link to a video explaining how Ocean Hero works. Thank you Chloe for suggesting this as a way we can use home learning to create a cleaner, greener world. |
