Take care and stay safe.💙
Nurture Resource Pack
We are all adjusting to a new way of living and working. There have been huge changes which have taken place quickly and this can cause worry and uncertainty and leave children with lots of unanswered questions. Feelings of loss or that things ‘aren’t fair’ may also be present for some children. This Nurture Resource Pack, found here, provides activities and advice to support your child at home if they are feeling worried or anxious.
Supporting Home Learning Routines
Today, the Education Endowment Foundation published some support resources for parents around home learning daily routines. Routines are important and support in keeping a sense of normality, particularly during this challenging and unprecedented time. Here are links to a video and a checklist that you and your child may benefit from looking at. 😊💜
Maths Tutorial
Please check out our maths tutorials – teachers have added the video tutorials to their class pages. The tutorials focus on a element taught in class each week and will help and support you and your child to see the methods we are using in school. Don’t hesitate to get in touch if you have any questions!
Mirror, mirror on the wall…
what makes ME stand out from them all… to celebrate the work we have completed this week – every child will come home tonight with a letter…the letter shows a mirror and will have one word that describes just one of your child’s many talents. We want our children to know how brilliant we they are!
