Welcome back to Learning from Home.

We hope that you had a lovely Easter week with your families and a little chocolate too! (I have enjoyed an Easter egg or two!!

Here are your weekly challenges to pick from throughout the week.

How many can you do?

PE

Try to do a PE challenge each day.

PE with Joe Wicks. Yoga. One of Mrs Gregan’s PE challenges for the week. Our outdoor warm up. Can you do 50 of each station? (Spotty dog… Downward dog running… Push ups… Star jumps) Make an obstacle course. Skip with a skipping rope. Put on some music and dance. Go for a bike ride or a walk or a run.

Sumdog

Have a go at some of the maths or spelling challenges that are on Sumdog. Try out some different games.

Nessy

If you have a Nessy login, please make sure that you are having a go on Nessy each day. (Just 15 minutes a day will really help you.)

Daily Reading

Make sure that you are reading each day and having a go at the quizzes on Accelerated Reader. Try to be really focused when taking your quizzes so that you can get 100%. Don’t forget that you can read books or ebooks. If you have not yet signed up for Epic Reading and want to do this, just drop us an email and we will get you started. What is your favourite place to read? What is the best book you have read recently?

Spelling

This week we would like you to practise the following words. (Maybe you could try some of the exciting ways on the Fun Ways to Learn Your Spellings sheet that we sent out a few weeks ago. You might even be able to manage to put some of them in your written work this week - now that’s a challenge for you!)

Helping around the house

Lent might be over but that doesn’t stop you from helping around the house. What jobs can you do this week? Maybe you could learn a new job that you have never done before. Maybe you could help with making lunch. Maybe you can help in the garden. Don’t forget to send us a picture of you helping around the home.

Typing

Have a go at some of the typing games on Purple Mash. Are you a Sadie Spider and a Lizzie Ladybird? Can you improve on your scores within the set time? Let us know how you get on.

French

How many different animal names can you learn in French? Can you draw some pictures and label them?

Write a letter or draw a card

Why not write someone a letter and pop it in the post to them or pop it through their letterbox when you are on a walk. Or you could draw someone a card to cheer them up and pop it in the post or through their letterbox. You could do this for a friend or a family member or for an elderly neighbour. Give it a go and put a smile on someone’s face.
