Noticeboard

REMEMBER: THIS  FRIDAY IS AN INSET DAY AND SO CLOSED TO PUPILS.

• You will find below a grid showing the sessions to be taught each week. They do not exactly follow days as each class has different sessions due to support and PE times being different but it allows you to see the week as a snapshot of sessions. 
• Remember to tell your teacher if you think you have completed your first side of your bookmarks for our Read For The Stars Reading Challenge. See at the bottom of the post for the names of children who have received their Bronze Certificates this week.
• We will always aim to get outside, whatever the weather, as much as possible so children will really need a waterproof coat each day.

A link to plans and resources if you are needing to self-isolate can be accessed HERE.

This week’s whole school assembly can be found here

Day 2: Children retell the story using their maps. Use the ‘Factor of 5’to help support the retelling. Scaffolds where necessary.
Day 3: Children create a poster thinking about the ‘bad and good’ things about the environment used in the books. Label nouns (extending with adjectives) and use an apostrophe to show who the world belongs to.

Handwriting During  a class shared write session, write  a letter to local supermarkets about their use of plastic packaging and how they plan to reduce it and how they/promote their customers to  recycle. On paper, Children write out letters with correct formation. Follow the teacher on board for each line. Letters to be distributed to local supermarkets.

Reading
Read as part of a group. Use phonetic knowledge to decode unknown words and to extend vocabulary. Read aloud and look at increasing fluency. Main focus to think about comprehension and answering questions both verbally and recorded to show their understanding.
In reading groups, continue to continue on phonic and CEW recognition gaps identified.
Whole Class – Planned story sessions each day, including Gretta Thunberg’s story and whole class ebook read-’A Place for Plastic’.

Wider Curriculum

PE- 
SHINE Outside Session 

Jasmine PE– 
This term’s focus is RealGym. This week, the children will be learning and practising a range of different shapes that they can make and hold with their bodies and will be using the large apparatus and climbing frame to challenge themselves further when holding these shapes.

Science-

We will be exploring the properties of everyday materials and why these properties make them suitable for making certain objects.

R+WV- 

“Why are some stories special?”
In our class assembly, we will be learning about the Night of Power. We will explore what it is, why it is important to Muslims and when and how it is celebrated.

Art –

We are going to explore the style Tingatinga and take inspiration from this to create our own ‘hot scenes’. We will be comparing and contrasting these images to our cold scenes that we created last week and thinking about how the colours used impact the feel of the artwork. 

PSHE-

Dreams and Goals

We will be working with a partner to come up with a shared goal. We will think about how best to work as part of a team and what skills it requires to be a good teammate.
