It has been fantastic to see all of the children who have been practising on spelling shed over the last few weeks so we want to celebrate you!

Mrs McEvoy will be checking Spelling shed twice a week to see which class is on top as well as all of the children who are in the top 10 in the leader board.

The top 5 spelling groups in the school are:

Set 3 year 5 – 1st

Mrs Blair’s class – 2nd

Set 1 year 5 – 3rd

Miss Bibi’s class – 4th

Well done 🙂

Now let’s celebrate the top 10 spellers at St George’s:

Hey! 😸

We hope you are enjoying the sunshine and staying safe. 😎🌞

Watch the video of the story ‘Sharing a Shell’ by Julia Donaldson.

Think about the phoneme ‘sh’. Use the worksheet to put all the things which begin with sh into the piggyback.

Things beginning with sh.

When you have done that can you have a go at labelling the items.

If you want to challenge yourself…can you put each word into a sentence? Remember that capital letter and full stop.

Making Fairy Houses👸🏻🔮

Today made fairy houses out of recycled plant pots.

First we designed them with pencils, then we took our fairy houses outside and placed them in our garden area – we are hoping to find some fairies soon!

We also created some characters to go around our fairy houses. We had lots of fun.

Science Activity🧼🖐🏼

In Science, we are learning about Animals including humans. Last week we looked at the human body.

It is very important to keep our bodies clean and healthy. We must always remember to keep our hands clean – especially with the current virus! So we use hand wash.

Today, your activity is to design your own hand wash. You can make this look and smell however you like, but it must be able to clean our hands.

Draw your own or use this template.

Example:

Re-opening for more pupils up-date 22.5.20

Following scientific evidence and through our own risk assessments, St George’s will not open to reception children as planned on 3rd June and it is unlikely nursery will start on 8th June. It is important to wait to see what guidance we will now be given nationally and locally. We do not want to rush this decision as everyone’s safety is vital. We will keep you all updated when we know more. We will continue to provide childcare for key worker families. Thank you for your patience
