Spend some quiet time in your garden or watch your garden through a window. Can you see any birds? What kind of birds can you see? Below you will find some ideas of how to make bird feeders, these will help your birds get the food they need in winter and also encourage more birds into your garden. Next week we are going to take part in the RSPB Big Garden Bird Watch/ Big School Bird Watch. You could have a go at making some bird feeders to hang outside this weekend so the birds get used to them - you will probably have to make some more next week though! IF YOU HAVE A NUT ALLERGY PLEASE AVOID USING PEANUT BUTTER OR PEANUTS IN YOUR BIRD FEEDERS!
Reading
As most of the children are not in school, it means we cannot change their reading books as we would normally do. I know many of you will be sharing stories at home, which is great, but I would like to tell you about a website that provides access to free e-books.
The website is called Oxford Owls and you can sign up for free; follow the link below.
When you are in the site, go to the e-book section. Below you will find a list of books that I would recommend for the children in Owls. The books are interactive and some have activities to do as well.
The Little Red Hen, The Haircut, A Home for Ted, Tiger's Family, Big Bad Bug. I would also suggest looking at the Sound Blending Books in the Read, Write Inc section - these support the Phonics lessons I teach.
Hello Owls, I hope you have all had a lovely weekend. Please find this week's activities below. I will continue to do the live zoom lessons for Phonics and Maths but I have tweaked things slightly this week to improve them! It is really important for Phonics in particular, that you can all hear properly so that you can get the best experience possible. I have decided to put you into two smaller phonics groups to make it better for you to hear and participate - details of which group you are in will be emailed to your parents and the timings are below.
Fred Phonics Group Zoom lesson will be at 9.30am
Ditty Phonics Group Zoom lesson will be at 10.20am
Maths Zoom lesson will be at 11.15am
