Robin Class Home School

Week Commencing

Monday 13^th July 2020

Hello Robins,

The final week of home learning before a well-deserved summer break and hopefully a return to school for you all in September!

A huge well done and thank you to your special adult helpers. I know they have helped you with your learning at home whilst trying balance lots of other demands on their time.

My final video message will be on the school website on Monday morning to start the week.

You will find this week’s Robin Class English and Maths activities below. Do what you can, choose a peak challenge to suit you and don’t worry if you don’t have time to finish all of it.

Parents/carers can email me at robin@wicklewood.norfolk.sch.uk with any questions, and you can send me one piece of work a week that you are proud of. All emails must be from a parent email account.

I will continue to provide feedback on any Purple Mash work and comment on your posts of the Purple Mash Robin Class Blog.

I am looking forward to seeing you all very soon.

Have a great week.

English    

For English this week, we will be using a Talk for Writing resource based around a story called ‘Sayeeda, the Pirate Princess’ by Alison Cooper.   

On the school website, you will find a Talk for Writing Home School Booklet to download containing the story and activities for the week. This booklet is designed for you to work through together with your special adult helper. I have made a donation to the Great Ormond Street Hospital Children’s Charity on behalf of Robin Class for using this resource.

There are one, two or three peak challenges each day. Remember to choose something which you feel you can do but will challenge you.   

Remember to think it, say it, like it, write it and read it again when you are writing. Every sentence needs fingers spaces, a capital letter and a full stop.
