The children have been invited to take part in competition to design the T-shirt that will be worn by competitiors in the Junior Great North Run this year. I have asked for a teacher in your childs year group to send you a Marvellous Me that contains a PDF with all the details. To enter please take a photo of your childs design and email it to the appropriate year group. Good luck.
The children have been extremely thoughtful for this challenge, writing messages, poems and pictures for people who they think are doing a great job at the moment. Well done everyone!
Look at our wonderful stretch poses for the daily challenge! We all know that stretching is extremely important to keep our muscles healthy, strong and flexible.
The children had lots of fun making paper aeroplanes as part of the daily challenge and seeing how far they could travel. Which design do you think was the most successful?
Our challenge today was to make a snack or meal with a grown up. The children have worked very hard (and carefully) to make some delicious looking food!
The children made some pretty awesome dens for the daily challenge!
We loved seeing everyone’s pictures of their favourite Easter weekend memory.
We have been exploring options for the best way for children to access Accelerated Reader at home during school closures. Accelerated Reader is a hugely successful reading program in school, which the children are very enthusiastic about and it has really nurtured a love of reading for our children.
We are currently working to ensure that all of Y4, Y5 and Y6 can access Accelerated Reader at home. Please contact your child’s year group email address to request the school’s unique website link. Our website posts from 6th April gives lots of information about different websites and apps where children can access a wealth of ebooks and audiobooks to support their reading.
Please check the ZPD of each book before reading to ensure success on quizzes. You can do this by searching for the text on www.arbookfind.co.uk
Happy reading!
The children tried hard to complete the teapot challenge yesterday and I think they were better than the teachers that gave it a go too.
Well done to Daniel Allen (Y6D) who has become a Word Millionaire on Accelerated Reader during school closures.
When asked about his success, Daniel said “Accelerated Reader, I think is one of the greatest reading apps as it not only allows you to read new books you may never have chosen before, but it rewards you – like giving you points and unlocking achievements. I am really proud of becoming a Word Millionaire. I’m sure everyone can achieve that milestone“.
Congratulations Daniel. This is a fantastic achievement and shows a huge commitment to his progress as well as a love for reading.
