30th April Thursday
Hello! I hope you are all well. I will be in school today with the key worker children.
So:
1) Lots of you came a got a copy of The Iron Man last week and a new Maths exercise book and a new lined writing exercise book. If you haven't done so yet, but would like these, then I will leave boxes of these out again. I think it might rain, so I will leave a note outside the main door, in the porch, to let you know where you can find them. Please also return copies of The Butterfly Lion if you do pop over. Please only take 1 of each, so there's enough to go round. Please also respect social distancing. They will be out between 9am and 3pm.
2) As I'm in school today, I won't be able to approve your blog posts myself, but I will leave a question and I'll ask Mrs Scott to do so on my behalf during the day.
Big Write feedback from last week (also as an attachment below) ... apologies for the delay this week. I've been working really hard on preparing your learning for the next two weeks, but I have been truly amazed by the standard of the work coming in. You really are doing yourselves proud. Thank you also for all the challenge photos coming in. Some great messages and it's lovely to see your faces. If you haven't done yours yet, there's still time.
Today starts with handwriting. Get your resources ready; either a sharp pencil, or a handwriting pen. If you don't do it on the sheet, practice writing the words as neatly and carefully as you can, joining as you go. Words to write attached below.
Please use this example of how you can join your letters.
