I hope you are all well. I have been absolutely blown away by the work the children are producing. Keep it up Year 4! I am incredibly proud of you all!
I know you have been bombarded with home learning information so just to clarify, I would like the children to prioritise the activities I put on Class Dojo. I will continue to set daily maths and English challenges for the children to complete. To help the children, I have included a link to a short BBC Bitesize video clip to remind them of what we have already covered. I will also be setting weekly tasks which include a reading check in, guided reading and a piece of writing where the children can tell me about their week. The pdfs for these tasks will be on the Class Story part of Dojo but I will open an ‘activity’ for each where the children can upload their work. When the children submit their challenge tasks they will receive 1 dojo. When the weekly activities are submitted then I will award the children with 3 dojos per task.
I have also set maths, reading and science work on Education City. These need to be completed for Friday please! I will be awarding 1 dojo for each completed task.
I will be checking Times Table Rockstars and Sumdog daily and will be awarding additional dojos if children have accessed these that day. They can also complete tasks from their home learning pack and Discovery Education.
Remember, we are working towards our target of 3000 dojos between Year 3 and Year 4 for our treat. Last week I awarded an amazing 175 dojos! Lets see if we can do better this week!
If you are having any problems with accessing the online resources please let me know.
I have also attached the link to the second week of the home learning project for additional ideas to keep the children busy.
Just a reminder that next week school will be closed for essential works therefore, I will not be setting any challenges, but I would like the children to complete an Easter Project. I will give you the details on next week’s blog.
Please tell the children I am missing them all terribly and I love seeing their work and hearing them read on Class Dojo. It puts a huge smile on my face!
If you have any questions or problems with anything then please do not hesitate to ask. Again, my email is year4@our-lady.blackpool.sch.uk and these will be responded to in school hours.
Stay safe! Sending you all lots of love!
Mrs Cunningham-Kay
