March 2021 - Return to School, by Mrs Harris
Date: 12th Mar 2021 @ 12:25pm
Dear Parents and Carers
A very warm ‘Welcome Back to School.’ It has been so lovely to see all the children and families return to school after months in lockdown.
The children settled in well and were happy to see their friends and teachers. We are looking forward to supporting our children for the remainder of the academic year and enabling each pupil to reach their full potential.
We need to ensure we are all still following government guidelines and I would like to remind parents that masks must be worn on school premises at all times. If you are exempt, please indicate this to staff.
We have heard children sharing news that they have been to each other’s houses for tea and to play. Please can I remind parents that this is not yet allowed and households are not permitted to mix. We really need to work together to ensure we are still preventing the risk of infection across the community so that we can have a safe lifting and easing of restrictions. I know we are all looking forward to a summer when we can all see our families and friends again and enjoy life as it was before Covid-19!!!
We are really looking forward to being able to share events in school as rules are relaxed and guidance allows us to widen our activities.
I have attached an overview of the key dates and easing of restrictions so I hope this is helpful.
If you have any concerns or queries, please contact the school office.
Take care and keep safe.

Hi F2,
Here are the activities for today:
Literacy – Speech Bubble
Play a listening game on Phonics Play. The children need to listen to the animal noise and select the correct animal. https://www.phonicsplay.co.uk/resources/phase/1/welcome-to-the-zoo
Think about what the animals might say on the farm in the story. Would they be happy with a lazy farmer?
Write a speech bubble as an animal on the farm. How do you think they feel? What might they say?
Phonics: Spellings and Tricky Words
Practise phase 3 tricky words (her, me, we, they)
Spelling test (be, we, me, all)
Play a phase 4 game on Phonics Play https://www.phonicsplay.co.uk/resources/phase/4
Maths – Time
Practise counting using the splat square https://www.topmarks.co.uk/learning-to-count/paint-the-squares For example – counting 1-20 forwards and backwards, counting in 10’s, counting in 2’s, one more, one less, missing numbers.
Can you make different o’clock times on a clock using a clock you have at home or on the top marks game https://www.topmarks.co.uk/time/teaching-clock
Using either, card, cardboard, or a paper plate, can you make your own clock at home.
Challenge: You might want to use it to help you complete a worksheet on school spider.
PSED: Healthy Foods
Listen to the story ‘I will not ever eat a tomato’. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P3CdrVN3kgE
Why do we need to eat healthy foods? What is the big problem in the story? What did Lola learn in the end?
What foods should we eat every day and what foods should we only eat sometimes?
What kinds of foods do you eat?
Can you use the worksheet on School Spider to help create a healthy lunch for Eddy and Ronnie (our class bears). Can you draw the food and label it?
Wellbeing Activity: Play a game with a friend or family member. This might be a favourite card / board game or a new game that you have never played before. Could you make up your own game too?
Have fun and remember to post pictures of your work on Tapestry!
