Welcome to Class F's Home Learning Page!
Good morning Class F!
How are you finding home learning? It's really strange being away from everyone and not being able to see friends. Remember, when you are home learning, always take movement breaks and brain breaks. You feel so much better after one!
Here's a news story I think might make you smile - it's got some very cute animals: Click me!!
Don't forget to solve the problem of the day. How are you finding solving them? I've also added a pirate chalenge for you - it'll stay until the end of the week, so complete it when you can :)
Have a lovely day,
Miss Percival :)
Class F's Timetable
Class F - I've made a timetable to help you in your learning. I know how much you enjoy following our daily timetable at school and reminding me if I forget to change it!
However, it's important to remember this is just a guide. Talk to your adult and decide what is best for you and how much you can achieve each day. Remember to have lots of movement breaks and brain breaks. Don't forget you need brain food too!
Resources For All Learners
Dear Parents/Carers,
The staff at SMA have been working together to come up with a list of online learning tools, and websites with fun and engaging, educational content. Please take some time to look at the document below. We have included a brief description of each website, as well as the age range we believe it is best suited to.
Thank you for your continued support, care and love for the school, staff, children and community.
Happy learning!
SMA Staff.
