WELCOME TO LOWER SCHOOL

Picture
Here you will find a daily timetable of learning for Year 1 and Year 2. They will be active from 9.00am each day. This remote learning will match the curriculum lessons taking place in school for our key worker children. We have given suggested timings that these activities should take. They can be done in any order you wish, although keeping to a routine and timetable will be your friend during these homeschooling times. If you have any queries please contact Mrs Cardy on the link button below. 
These timetables will be archived each Friday, however if you wish to access any previous links please ask. 
Take as many walks as you can, lot's of coffee and remember you did brilliantly last time, and this time you will be brilliant again. We are at the end of an email or phone call if you need us for motivation/a shoulder to cry on.
​Take care and stay safe!

OUR AUTUMN TERM Topic: Penguins!

This term we will be working as a penguin team!
After the success of the project theme work we started last term, we have decided to carry on with this style. The idea is that we work more in a topic based style where a lot of the subjects will interlink allowing the children to use a range of subject skills. We will have three mini topic based projects within this term - Life of Penguins; 365 Penguins and Conservation of Penguins.

Project 1: Life of Penguins
In Geography we will be looking at where the penguins live in the world, their habitats and therefore knowing about the geography of the continents and oceans. To use our skills to be a sportsman we will move like penguins, use basic movements, perform simple dances with the theme of penguins and also looking at the film Happy Feet to help inspire our movements. In outdoor P.E we will be playing penguin football using the tactics and rules of football but developing their own style with penguin players as a theme. In Art we will use some drawing, painting, sculpting and crafting techniques to make penguin collages with mixed media. Throughout the term we will be looking at the skills to become a good citizen by making a positive contribution within the classroom and school with the golden rules and core values whilst looking at the social interaction of penguins. In Computing the children will practise how to make algorithms and make their own penguin sprite to program, code and debug. The children will also look at how to stay safe on the internet using The adventures of Smartie the penguin and http://www.kidsmart.org.uk/teachers/ks1/readsmartie.aspx
In Music the children will learn a penguin song from Happy Feet the film where they will learn to sing and use their voices. We will also use the fill to help with our Literacy work and creative writing. The topic of penguins will link to our Science lessons where we will look at the habitats and seasons where the penguins live. Religious Education will follow the theme as closely as possible however the main focus will be on Hinduism and Special Stories.
Project 2: 365 Penguins and Project 3: Conservation of Penguins topic letter will be added as we reach these projects. ​

Our tokens this term are named after Penguins

OUR SPRING TERM Topic:
Wizards!

Picture
Welcome to the enchanted term of Wizardry! At the end of the Autumn term the children found mysterious magical invitations delivered to their lockers. Invitations to join a term at Hogwarts school of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Each lesson will be a chance for the children to master their skills to help them graduate for the term at Hogwarts. The children will be inspected by the Ministry of Magic and they will receive a graduation certificate by an Inspector. Our Project based learning means that our lessons all link. Over the Spring Term we will cover 3 projects: Wizards and Witches, Hogwarts and Potions.
In Science we will be plant detectives which will help us to make potions. Through ICT we will be learning how to use the internet safely, using ICT as a research tool and how to use simple programmes to help us with our spells. Through our yearly Quidditch World cup, the children will learn about the different countries and continents around the world whilst developing their P.E skills to help them learn the game of Quidditch itself and learning to dance at the Hogwarts ball. We will be learning thee Harry Potter theme in our music lessons to accompany the final ball at the end of term. In History we will be looking at wizards and witches in stories over the years. We will be replicating stain glass windows as part of our Artwork to combine the lessons. In Design and Technology we will design, make and evaluate our own wizards hats, this will be combined with Forest Schools, where we will be making wands. In Religious Education and PSHE we will be exploring the responsibilities we have in looking after our ourselves, special  objects and symbols. To celebrate icons of our nation we will be looking at JK Rowling and her achievements.

Literacy
In Literacy we will improve our information writing by studying the features of these texts whilst researching the world of magic. We will write traditional stories and compare the roles of different witches and wizards. We will have a problem later on in the term where the children will need to write instructions to help us catch this ‘problem’! We will then move on to explore poems using magic as our theme. During this term we will use the wizards as a theme to study and adapt our own stories.
Maths
In Maths we will cover Number, Measurement, Ratio and Proportion, Algebra, Geometry and Statistics, the children will have personalised activities that focus on their individual needs and targets. They will also develop their ability to use the skills they have learnt and apply them to problem solving and reasoning activities. The Maths ladders in this Home-School Book show the progression of Maths knowledge and skills.

This year there are four types of homework that will be set throughout the term: Learning Log, Literacy, Maths, and Spellings and Times Tables Practice. Learning Log, Literacy and Maths homework must be completed in this book. Some recording is necessary for Spellings and Times Tables Practice. Your child will receive three ‘Dragons eggs’ for their team if they read more than four times a week, and complete their weekly homework, so don’t forget to sign their Reading Record!


Reminders: Homework hand in - Monday morning; P.E - Monday and Thursday. Please ensure belongings are labelled (water bottles, jumpers, P.E bags etc).

Our tokens this term are named after
The Professor's House Groups
The children can collect dragon egg tokens
