Budding Explorers

Wow! Where has this week gone? We have had spelling hunts in the garden, creative writing: making up our own stories whilst focusing on suffixes, adjectives, adverbs and verbs, WANTED posters, multiplication using objects/ pictures and number squares and some great reasoning and explanations of how problems have been solved. Not only have I been blown away by the work completed but by the determination and enthusiasm! I am loving working with all these little explorers 💭

Many parents I have spoken to have been saying how they are struggling with juggling work and home schooling...and I am honestly not surprised! Not only that but the children are disengaged and getting bored. My top advice would be to keep it short and simple: reading, phonics and spelling are so valuable and easy to do quickly at home. Maths can be done through play and conversation whilst out and about. I’ll be sharing some quick easy ideas this week which require no planning or worksheets and minimal resources 👩🏻‍🏫
