Good Morning Adventurers – it’s back to school Monday!

I hope you managed to enjoy your weekend despite the horrible weather! 

Well lets banish those rain clouds and start the school week with a sunny smile.

I’m really excited as the teachers got together (virtually) to share a lovely new book with you on Tapestry called ‘Rain Before Rainbows’ by Smriti Hall which we are going to base our work around for the next few weeks. So have a listen then read it yourself.

Did you sign up for the library challenge? There’s still time and reading Rain Before Rainbows is a good start to the challenge.

Here’s today’s activities if you wish to try them. (More details on Tapestry)

Handwriting – practise the letter ‘Nn’

English – listen to then read the story ‘Rain Before Rainbows’ then respond with your thoughts about the book. You can record a video of you talking about the book or make a talking head and thoughts and feelings box in which you can write down your thoughts and post them in the box.

Maths – Key Skills for Year 2 and Year 3 then draw 2D shapes ad describe their properties.

There’s quite a lot of craft activities involved in English today which I hope you will enjoy. I really liked making my talking head and thoughts and feelings box and I look forward to seeing yours.

Have a lovely day.

Mrs Roe
