Week Four: 25th January
This Week's Timetable
Google Meets
This week we will be having some more Google Meets! Every morning will be having a whole class meeting to talk you through the work for the day and motivate you for the day ahead! On Monday this will be at 9:25am and the rest of the week they will be at 9:05am. In these meetings it is so important that you stay muted unless we ask you to speak. We also need you to remember to be sensible like you would be in a normal lesson in school with us. Please only join the meetings at the time we have asked you to. Mrs Joubert is going to be running some maths support groups on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 1pm. Let us know in our morning meets if you will be wanting to join her for some help!
Make sure you are logging onto Google Classroom every day so you don't miss any updates and can see the links to the Google Meets. They will always be posted a few minutes before the meeting begins. We will be continuing our Google Meet lunch time check-ins Monday-Thursday with the same groups as before at 12:30pm, where we can talk to everyone individually! We look forward to catching up with you again!
Uploading Work
It is so important that you keep uploading your work each day so we can give you feedback and understand how we can help you. The instructions on how to log into Google Classroom and upload work are below. I will also be posting a video this week to take you through it step by step as well. Every day there will be an assignment for Literacy, an assignment for Maths and one detailing the work for the whole day. Please add work to the appropriate lesson assignments where I have put a blank document for you to edit. This document is for you to add photos of you work to, or to type your work onto - choose whichever way is easiest for you. It would be really helpful if you could add work under the correct lessons so I can see who is accessing the work and completing it. Every lesson will be worth 100 points which you will receive when I return your work back to you with my feedback. Keep score of how many points you gain this week and the winners will be announced on Friday!
Learning This Week
For Maths this week, some lessons will be of me teaching you and others will be the White Rose worksheets and videos. We are continuing with multiplication so to break it down and ensure you are understanding, keep going back to my videos to help you! We are working on 2d x 2d using the long multiplication column method which we started on Friday. We will then move on to multiply 3d x 2d. If you find this tricky, please don't worry. Come along to the maths support sessions if you are unsure about anything, or please email me.
For Literacy you will be doing some SPaG, as well as starting a new unit where I will be teaching you on videos I have recorded. You will also have one lesson of reading comprehension too.
Try and spend some time reading a book, either to yourself or with someone else. If you would like to borrow some books from school, let us know and we can leave some out for you to collect. Below is a reading log for you to fill in and send to me at the end of each week. It would be great to see you filling this in every time you read! I have also added a book review template for you to fill out when you finish a book! Each day I will continue to be uploading a video of myself reading you our class story, so sit back and watch/listen to that when you can :) I hope you're enjoying it!
The timetable is to help you keep organised, however you do not have to do the tasks in this order! Give what you can a go and please get in touch if you are struggling with anything.
I have created a 'virtual classroom' in Google Classroom which has all of the important links that you will frequently use throughout the week. Use this page to help you navigate your learning quickly and with ease. It is at the top of the 'Classwork' tab.
Have a great week!
