Learning from home

A place to find out what you can be doing with your child while school is closed.

Reception Winter Home Learning

5th January 2021Golightly

Hi everyone,

Here is our home learning overview for the next three days. Please try wherever possible to have your child doing some of the work each day. We are obviously aware that it can be difficult to keep your child on task at home, but don’t worry, as during the school day the children are not always on a teacher led task. They do have time to play and learn through their own exploration. Your child being happy and content is also very important to their development.

As you know, some children will be in school some of the time. Those children will be doing the same work in school as your child has been given online.

Please try to enjoy the time with your children as much as you can and thanks for your patience and cooperation.

Thanks,

Reception team x

Year 2 learning from home

14th December 2020Adrianna Carlin

Hello Year 2!!

jhall@ashley.s-tyneside.sch.uk

 

This morning we were supposed to record our Christmas songs because we can’t please could you send miss Carlin a video of you singing ‘rocking around the Christmas tree’ and ‘Santa got stuck up the chimney’ and I am going to try and piece the videos together. Please sing these songs without the music- feel free to dance in them and add actions (I know that might be tricky with no music)

Remote Learning Support from The Openzone

21st October 2020Natalie Jewitt

Any families self-isolating may find some useful information from our friends at The Openzone:

 

Remote Learning Information

Google Classroom

3rd October 2020Natalie Jewitt

As a school we use the Google Suite for Education to help us in school and out of school.  After experiencing remote learning before the summer holidays we have all worked hard to embrace new technologies.

We would like to remind children (and parents) that when you are logged onto our school website and using the tools which are available to you that it is solely for school work.

Conversations should be related to school and work which you have been asked to do by your teachers.

It is an amazing tool and should be used with respect.

Here is a link to some You Tube videos which may help when using Google.

Tech Toolkit for Families and Guardians 

As always our school website has advice and links for all technology related issues in the e-safety tab.

Responsible Computer and Internet Use

At Ashley Primary School we use school computers and internet access for learning. The following rules will help us to keep everyone safe when using this technology.

* On the school network, I will only use my own login and password which I will keep a secret at all times.

* I will not look at, or delete other people’s files.

* I will not bring external memory drives or USB Memory Sticks into school without permission and will not use these on school machines.

* I will ask permission before entering any website, unless my teacher has already approved the site.

* When using the school website I will only use my own login and password which I will keep a secret at all times.

* I will only email people I know, or who my teacher has approved sending them appropriate and polite messages.

* I will ask permission before opening an email or an email attachment sent by a person I do not know.

* I will not use internet chat.

* If I see anything I am unhappy with or receive messages I do not like, I will tell a teacher immediately.

* I understand the school may check my computer and email files and may monitor the internet sites I visit.

* I understand that if I deliberately break these rules, I could be stopped from using the internet and computers.

Home learning Y6

18th September 2020Julie Coult

Today,  all Year Six children have been shown how to log into the school website. They have all joined the online google classroom for their class. In the event of home learning, the first thing that the children should do is sign into their email accounts, where there will be an instruction from Mrs Coult or Miss Humphrey. This will explain where to locate any work set.

Any problems we are contactable at

Practise your French!

By J Sanderson19th June 2020

Our local authority Languages Co-ordinator, Mme Smith, has very kindly shared some easy to access resources/links which you can use from home to continue practising your French language skills.

Click HERE to access the guidance.

Each unit has a series of video links, or links to songs which will help to reinforce pre-existing learning, as well as introduce new topics.

So that you know the units your child would have been studying, I have included a copy of our Modern Foreign Languages overview below, however in brief:

Year 3: units 1 – 3

Year 4: units 4 – 6

Year 5: units 7 – 9

Year 6: units 10 – 12

Of course, this is variable depending upon continuation of units across year groups according to a review of prior learning.

Download (PDF, 89KB)

Please feel free to explore these resources from unit 1 onward; according to your child’s needs and preferred interests!

Amusez-vous bien !

Miss Sanderson 🙂

School Update from Mrs Todd

12th June 2020Natalie Jewitt

I hope you are all well and continuing to keep your families safe during these strange times.

As you will have seen in the media and on the news this week, the Government has announced that schools will not be able to reopen to year groups 2-5, due to space constraints on the vast majority of primary schools. This is something we could have told the Government advisors from the start, had they listened to those in the profession. We will continue to support your child through home learning, so please continue to check the school website and contact your child’s teacher, should you have any queries. Please check the website for regular general updates too.

This week has seen our school open to all of the Reception, Year 1 and Year 6 children, whose parents/carer wanted them to return to school. Along with them are the children of key workers, who have been in school since we closed to all other pupils on 20th March. We now have up to 95 children attending our school, the majority on a full time basis. In order to ensure the children are as safe as is possible, we have them in ‘bubbles’ of no more than 10 children. Some bubbles are smaller, depending upon the physical size of the classroom and this means 12 out of our 14 available teaching spaces are used.

The children stay with their bubble all day, with the same staff each day and do not mix with anyone from any other bubble. Lunch is eaten in the classroom in which they are based, start/end times are staggered, to ensure as few people as possible are on the premises at any one time, and break times are staggered too.

So far, this is working really well and I would like to thank everyone involved for remembering to abide by the rules outlined on the website and sticking to our one-way system. I would also like to thank my staff, who have worked tirelessly, and continue to do so, to support the children at home, with home learning and for their amazing commitment to preparing the school so that we could reopen to more children.

Mrs Jewitt, the Steven Spielberg of Ashley Primary, has created this brilliant video below, so that you can see just how different the school looks now, with the safety measures we have in place. So, grab a cuppa or a glass of juice and maybe a biscuit and enjoy our video tour of Ashley Primary. The children may even be able to spot their teacher!

Take care,

Mrs Todd

Year 5 Home Learning Guidance Wk Beg: 8.6.2020

By J Sanderson5th June 2020

Hi Year 5!

We hope you are all well and safe.

Here is your weekly update, Home Learning Guidance and materials for the week beginning 8.6.2020.

First of all, some of you will already be aware that we have begun inviting you to access Google Classroom through the school website. You simply need your login details for the school site and then a code which you can be provided with by your class teacher. The icon is shown above. You must access it using your own school email.

This will enable you to access our shared Class Drive where we have backed up all of your Home Learning Guidance from previous weeks for easier access. Whilst we will continue to post the guidance here on the web, we will begin uploading it into the shared drive as well. This will hopefully mean you can go back and check out any resources you may not have managed to have a go at yet and makes life a little easier for finding older resources all in one place, rather than searching through old web posts. We hope you will find this useful. Do feedback any technical issues and we will try to resolve them for you asap! (Probably with the assistance of Mrs Jewitt – although sshh, I haven’t asked her yet 😉 .)

Nature Watch Project

This week, our project takes a turn towards Nature and the outdoors! Check it out here.

Your tasks are to:

  1. Conduct a mini-beast hunt.
  2. Create your own wormery.
  3. Label the parts of a flower.
  4. What is Pollination?
  5. Grow your own sunflower and record observations.
  6. Art: choose a flower or plant from your own garden and draw it…

We’d love to see some of your end products – take some pics and share them with us!

Guidance Overview

We have provided the usual resources in the Home Learning files including:

  • Overview (timetable ideas and useful links)
  • Monday – Friday files (resources specific to that day as per the overview)
  • Maths (starters and daily tasks)
  • English (useful prompts, word of the week and grammar activities)
  • Spelling and Grammar (part of daily tasks or English file)
  • Reading (part of daily tasks)
  • Classroom Secrets Home Learning Packs (fully differentiated)
  • EAL (useful resources for those receiving support from EMTRAS)
  • Something a bit different – (exactly that!)

However this week, we have also included a ‘Science‘ folder in the ‘Something a bit different’ file. In it, you will find the first two lessons of our topic ‘Forces’ which we would have been studying in school. They have been slightly adapted to accommodate the fact you are at home and may not have access to certain resources. We will follow this up with another two lessons next week.

There’s also a fun Paper Helicopter Investigation to explore…

 

White Rose Maths

Please note, that this week’s usual schedule for White Rose Maths has already been covered by us earlier on in the lockdown. When they partnered with BBC Bitesize, their timetable changed slightly. To accommodate this, they have provided alternative lessons for the weeks where this might occur. This is something we are doing this week and an ‘alternative’ lesson pdf containing video links has been put in the files for you as well as the resources. If you do go on to White Rose‘s website, do please ensure you are viewing the ‘alternative’ provision which is provided in a link alongside the standard weekly lessons.

You can also continue to access Oak National Academy, BBC Bitesize Daily Learning and Classroom Secrets should you wish to mix up your daily programme of learning.

Our next Google Meet Video Conference is currently set to be Thursday 11th June at 4:30pm. We will provide further information about this closer to the time, however if you would like to join in, just let your class teacher know via email or Class Dojo. The technical hitches are fixed! Links cannot be given out too soon in case they change for safeguarding purposes. However if you log in to Google Classroom using your class code (available from your teacher), you can then be sent the specific code / link to gain access to the ‘Meeting Room’.

This week, we will be hosting a quiz! Bring your question and see who you can confuse!

We hope you continue to stay safe and well. We are here if you need us.

Take care all,

Miss Sanderson and Mrs Tuff 🙂 🙂
