Easter Activity Packs

This is a time when we are normally out and about enjoying the Easter holiday.  As we are unable to do so this year, some activity packs have been put together for you to use. There is no expectation for you to complete these tasks, but feel free to send examples to your teacher, just like you have been doing over the past 2 weeks.  We have included packs from both key stages so that you have a wide variety of different activities to choose from.

The packs cover a variety of subjects, including reading, writing and maths, but there is also a range of other subjects such as art, history and geography, alongside some challenge cards to keep your brains ticking over. You may pick and choose the activities you would like to do.

Remember to keep your daily journal going with your thoughts, feelings, what you have been doing, etc.  You will be able to look back on this one day when people ask what it was like when the schools all closed.

Home Learning Pack

 

Weekly Update.

It was really sad to see everyone leave on Friday and I know many of the children, like ourselves, were feeling quite upset. Fingers crossed, that it will only be for a short period of time and we can all come together again soon. Please find enclosed the work pack for this week. Some of the activities will take longer than a week to do, particularly the topic based ones. Maths and English will be uploaded weekly and should allow children to become confident in the calculation methods they have been focussing on. All written work should be completed in their home learning books. Any queries don’t hesitate to contact us.

Many Thanks

Year 3 Team

Messy mummification!

                                                   

This week Year 4 have been busily mummifying fish. It was a rather smelly, slippery process but we had great fun. We had to wash and dry the fish and then their organs would have been removed. Fortunately, our fish had already been gutted! After that, we covered them with salt to dry the fish out. When the drying process is complete we will uncover the fish for the next part of the process. We’ll report back to you next time…

PE days

Please note that our PE day has changed to Wednesdays.  Please could we remind you that all children should be in full St Nicholas, named PE kits, with any jewellery removed (earrings).

Our topics are Dance and Tag Rugby.  Dance will be indoors and require shorts, plimsolls and t-shirts.  Tag Rugby will be outdoors, so children may wear black jogging bottoms and trainers.

Many thanks

Year 3 team
