Anti Bullying Week and Odd Socks Day

8th November 2021Miss Stratford

The theme for Anti-Bullying Week this year is One Kind Word. The week will begin with Odd Socks Day. We would like all of the children to come to school wearing odd socks to show we’re ALL unique and different. We want to emphasis the importance of being kind to each other and respecting each other’s individuality.

Throughout the week the children will be talking about different types of bullying, what to do about it and how we can spread kindness around the school. We will even be singing a song about it!

https://youtu.be/lpZ3u5Z6pOg
Parents and Carers, as always, we appreciate your continued support. If you would like to find out more about Anti-Bullying Week then please follow the link below:

Great French Language Challenge!

By Natalie Jewitt15th May 2020

Bonjour!

Hi everyone,

As part of our Modern Foreign Languages curriculum at Ashley Primary School, Key Stage 2 study the French language.

I thought the following activities would give you something a little different to challenge yourself with whilst you’re staying safe at home with your families and also help you to keep in touch with your French learning!

The Great French Language Challenge is made up of a number of fun activities to do with your families  which focus on the French language – in fact some of them you might need to ask for a little help with and make it a real family challenge!  You could even join up with class mates online (be e-safe aware!) and create a socially distanced team!

If you manage to complete the French challenge, why not try the second challenge and choose a different language to focus on? Can you find any similarities between that language and your French challenges? Which words sound the same or have similar roots? Did any words surprise you?

I appreciate given the current situation it might be tricky to do one or two of the challenges, for example trying foods from that country which you may not have tried before: shopping isn’t straight forward at the moment, and I don’t want you to spend any money on this! For that reason, you can change any challenge that proves too difficult to complete for one that you make up yourself – how imaginative can you be?

To download the files, click on the images below.

Go on! Why not have a go – discuss with your families and compare ideas with friends. Most of all, have fun! 🙂

Anyone who manages to complete the challenge can send me an email at [email protected] with the subject line ‘Great French Language Challenge’ or ‘Great Languages Challenge’.

Parents, so that your child can be rewarded with their awesome certificate, please include their name (first name and initial of surname only) and class – or if it was a family effort, maybe create a team name and send me that instead! (I still need a class for reference however 😉 )

Bonne chance! (Good luck!)

For your information, there are also some great activities on Education City (you will need your login details) and BBC Bitesize if you fancy brushing up on your French.

https://go.educationcity.com/level/index/4

https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/subjects/z39d7ty

Nothing beats listening to a language to help promote the learning of it, so maybe try and tune into some French songs online as well. Here are just a few as an example, but there are loads out there – you might find some cartoons as well:

Greetings Year 5!

We hope you had a good bank holiday weekend celebrating VE Day with your families – all socially distanced of course! This week marks the bicentennial celebrations (200th birthday anniversary) of Florence Nightingale – which wonderfully coincides with ‘International Nurses Day’ – on Tuesday 12th May.

The theme for International Nurses Day this year is ‘Nursing the world to health’ with a focus on the ‘true value of nurses to the people of the world’. I think you’ll agree that this is quite an appropriate theme given the current situation we find ourselves in. Perhaps you could write why you believe nurses are so important to us and give thanks for the values they work so hard towards achieving each and every day.

We have provided some fun colouring activities (click here) to mark this day, as well as a differentiated reading comprehension activity about Florence Nightingale.

Florence was a key contributor the changing the face of nursing during what were incredibly difficult times.

The video below (shared from BBC Teach) provides a first person insight into who exactly Florence Nightingale was:

For a slightly more fun perspective of the life of Florence, you could check out the ‘Horrible Histories’ video below:

 

Weekly Learning Guidance

As always, we have provided a weekly overview should you choose to follow a more structured week which includes daily Maths from White Rose (click here to access online videos); Fluent in Five and Rapid Reasoning; English tasks, using Serial Mash (Purple Mash) as a tool; Spelling practice from Oxford Owl Read Write Inc; and Grammar tasks from a selection of sources including Vocabulary Ninja and Purple Mash. We have also included the usual resources for you to complete Word of the Week, Spelling Menu practice, Number of the Day and ‘Something a bit Different’, which includes various activities for you to explore. We have also added one or two videos reminding you how to access online resources. Click here or on the image below to access the files.

You can also use BBC Daily Bitesize or Oak National Academy both of whom provide complete, daily lessons with video tutorials. We have included videos in the files to show how to navigate Oak National Academy. Don’t forget to continue accessing Lexia and Mathletics – and why not have a look at Education City as well. Do ask if you need any login reminders.

Project work

You can also keep going with your Titanic projects this week – all of the resources have been carried across for you to access should you need them, but do feel free to research the topic in any way which suits you.

PSHE (Personal Social Health Education)

This week, we have also added a file called PSHE which contains some resources kindly forwarded to us by Miss Stratford. The focus of this topic is to learn about what is important in the relationships of our Families and Friends, aiming to help us understand the qualities and values of positive relationships. Included in the file is a PowerPoint to learn from and three accompanying activities.

EAL

As well as PSHE and the usual resources, you will also notice a file for those students who receive support from EMTRAS under English as an Additional Language (EAL) guidelines. Our plan is to put in any resources shared with us from Helen at EMTRAS for those students who usually receive support from her. We hope you will find this a useful addition.

Home Learning Packs

As ever, we will provide access to Classroom Secret Home Learning Packs for all year groups to cater for your differentiation needs.

 

Please keep going everyone, we know we haven’t seen each other for what seems like quite a long time now! But do persevere. We are so proud of you all for trying hard to follow the government’s advice to stay at home and protect one another. Every little bit of learning you can manage really will help when we finally get back to school – whether you follow the guidance we have provided, BBC Daily Bitesize, Oak National Academy, or simply complete your basics in terms of reading, spelling and tables every day. It all counts.

Stay safe everyone, and don’t forget, you can contact your class teacher and ask to be added to Class Dojo on the email addresses below.

Here if you need us! Don’t be afraid to ask for help.

Build your own city!

By Natalie Jewitt2nd May 2020

A London architecture firm called Foster and Partners have created some fab printable templates which allow you to ‘build your own city’, including a skyscraper! They look great: you can colour them to suit your own design initiative and print as many as you want (can!), meaning your city can become a real family effort.

What is really useful is the practice it will give you working with 2D and 3D shapes. It’s a great opportunity to try and predict what shape you think a building will become just by looking at the net of 2D shapes.

Come on you budding architects, why not have a go – I’d love to see pictures of your growing city!

Click here to open file containing the PDFs.

Have fun!  Miss S 👍🏻🌈

Happy Birthday Captain Tom!

By Natalie Jewitt30th April 2020

Happy Birthday Captain Tom!

It has been quite an inspirational morning watching Captain Tom celebrate his 100th birthday on the BBC news. What a wonderfully humbling man he is. If you haven’t caught up with his incredible actions, why not have a look at BBC Newsround? They have a fun quiz you can complete as well!

He is close to raising 30 million pounds as I write this. Just amazing and certainly goes to show, you can achieve anything you set your mind to…

Don’t forget to send in your pictures to Mrs Todd tonight if you are able to join in with the national 8pm clap – perhaps including some happy birthday and thank you messages for the Captain?

I hope you’re having a good week.

Keep staying safe all.

Miss Sanderson🌈 😊
