Welcome to Class 1
Home Learning...
This page will be updated regularly by Miss Rawding. She can be contacted on l.rawding@carltonminiottacademy.org
Don't forget to follow us on Twitter (@CarltonMiniY1), we would love to see what you guys are getting up to at home.
Well done for making it through the first week and for putting so much effort in. You are all doing an amazing job and the children seem to be coping really well!
Me and Miss Costick will be making weekly phone calls home, just to check in and see how you are all getting on and to see if there is
anything at all we can do to help you!
If you do not have access to a printer or don't want to use too much paper, all of the activities can be adapted and recorded directly into
children's books too.
Home Learning - Week 2 - 30th March 2020
Dangerous Dinosaurs Week!
Wake up Shake up...
If you're not aching too much from last week (I certainly am), we will be continuing with the Joe Wicks' Daily HIIT workout every morning.
All the money that Joe makes from these workouts is being donated to directly to the NHS which is amazing... Let's keep supporting him!
Guided Reading...
Log in to Oxford Owl
This week there are two book options to choose from.
To find these books, please click in the search box and type the title of the book you would like to find.
'A Monster Mistake' is more suitable for the little ones who are still gaining confidence with their reading and fluency. Please click here for
some 'Rapid Retriever' questions to accompany the text. Children can record their answers in their English books.
'The Lazy Giant' is more suitable for those children who are secure with their phonics sounds and are beginning to read with more fluency.
