Dear Owls,
Your grown ups have probably told you that Year 2 and Year 3 will not be back in school this term.
I know that you have all been working from home and so far we have asked you to do some reading and some times tables and after that we have said that you can decide which learning you do.
From this week it is different.
The work that must be completed should be sent into school. This can be done by sending work to the school office or using St Mary's Facebook messenger so that it is private.
Parents can send in photos, a screenshot or writing, so that I can see what home learning has been completed and how far you have got. Please mark emails for me : FAO Miss Burnell.
I really look forward to seeing your work this week.
Miss Burnell.
What needs to be completed.
Work underlined and in bold is work that needs to be completed from this week - aim to complete 3 out of the 5 Maths tasks and 3 English activities per week - this includes logging onto Bug Club which I can see you are accessing and any of the spelling and phonics activities.

Read on Bug Club or access other reading programmes. Read books from home and record the pages read to show me.
Science
-Watch BBC bitesize about how seeds and bulbs grow into mature plants. Look at the life cycle of a plant. Use the life cycle poster and video to produce a cartoon strip, showing each step. Try to include these words and steps: seed dispersal, germination, roots and shoots, stem, leaves, flowers, seeds and cycle. There is also an online quiz to try.
You also have your plant knowledge organiser from last week to help you.
Topic
-Watch BBC bitesize about Weather and Climate. Can you explain the difference? Watch the clips about Antarctica and Nigeria. How do these places differ to the climate in the UK? Do they have a temperate climate? Find out: Who lives there and what their lives are like - What animal and plant life there is and how it is different to the UK.
