Wednesday

The present perfect is a verb form which lots of people take a little while to understand even though we use it naturally. We have have a few lessons together about this, but it continues to be important in year 5 and 6, so it is worth practising.

Welcome back to our home learning

Hello Red class! I hope you have enjoyed Easter with your families, have had plenty of Easter eggs and have been able to enjoy the sunshine.

I have been thinking lots about your home learning whilst I have been munching on chocolate over Easter.

Unfortunately, my walks with my dog will have to be longer and faster to use up all those extra calories. He is quite happy about that.

As well as Maths and English, we will be finding out about Plants for science and some history of life in the UK long, long ago (Stone Age to Iron Age ) for our topic. Hopefully, some of you will have some seeds and plants you can grow and observe at home. Perhaps you could share some photographs to support each other in your learning.

Thank you!

I thought I would share a few pictures sent in from one of our key workers, Gracie and Drew’s mum. She works for the NHS and I know she has been on some very long shifts over the Easter holiday. These pictures show her along with some of her colleagues holding pictures which Gracie and Drew produced and sent in.

If your family is taking part in the clap for the NHS on Thursday nights, maybe we could all do an extra clap tonight for an amazing mum who is part of our Claverley community.

Well done to any of our other key workers too!


 

Message from the Head

Hello to everyone and especially all the children!

Today we would have been breaking up for the Easter holiday with our Church service and PTA organised Easter egg hunt. Sadly, we are not spending this last day together and I have been searching but can’t find any eggs! So you are not missing out!

Your teachers and I have loved hearing from you all and finding out what you have been doing. We are very pleased that you are continuing to work hard from your new classrooms! I wonder if you have all shared a ‘Super Silver’ or even ‘Great to be Gold’ lunch together, if not, you could plan one next week. I would love to know if any of your parents have earned one!

I am adding some ideas for the holidays to this post. You don’t have to do them but you might like to choose a couple to try. I have seen lots of children going onto the site with an artist called Rob Biddulph and he shows you how to draw some amazing characters – it doesn’t matter if you are a fantastic artist or a beginner, you can have a go!

I hope you enjoy have some fun and enjoy the lovely weather.

Mrs Derrer
