Settled and enjoying being with their friends.

Hi my lovely Ladybirds 🐞 ,
this week is the last but one for tasks on here .
Try some of these ...
Your homework for this coming week will be arriving by post!
Keep an eye out and make sure you have a red teacher pen ready!
Stay safe and I'll see you soon xx
Hi everyone, this week I would like you to read and listen to as many Roald Dahl stories as you can.
Matilda is my favourite, see if it's yours too.
Matilda wanted to go to school so badly, but her father thought it was more important for her to stay home and watch television. What do you think, who do you agree with?
Fold your page in half, write School at the top of one half and Television at the top of the other. Now use bullet points to write the advantages of each...
eg. Television is good because you can see and learn about different parts of the World without actually visiting there.
or... School is important because we learn to cooperate with others.
Try and fill your page with ideas about each.
I think you may even need 2 pages for your fabulous ideas.
Use dice and roll a fabulous story.
I can't wait to read it.
Click on the document and have a try of the comprehension about minibeasts.
Here are some minibeast maths challenges for you...
Have fun creating your own fingerprint minibeasts...
Finally, here is a favourite story for you to listen to.....
Hi everyone I hope you are all keeping well.
We'll learn about snails and slugs
this week. Try some of these activities.
Try writing out this poem in your best handwriting.
Now print it out,cut up the words and reassemble it in the shape of the shell.
Try making a snailery.
Hi everyone,
I thought that you could use this week to look back over all tasks and activities and complete any that you haven't had time to do. I think you may have enough without me giving you even more. PLEASE keep reading every day as I can't wait to listen to you again and see how much you have improved (and you were already fabulous!)

Who would have thought a little daisy could create such learning and fun !!!
Here are some past test papers for you to help your child practice .
Don't worry if there are some questions they can't answer ,as we may not have covered those areas yet.
Just work through them slowly as they will also familiarise the children with the way the tests are laid out . Tell the children to draw spots/ten towers or any pictures that help them solve the maths questions.
I hope this is useful. Thank you for all your support at home.
