Good morning Class 2!

I hope that you are all keeping well.

Today is the day that we start to welcome back some children from Year 1, so I thought that it might be nice to change things a little. If your child is still at home, I thought it would be nice that if they do a piece of writing and they would like the children who are in school to see it, you could please take a photo of it and email it to me. I will then show the piece of work to the children the next day. It’s such a bizarre time and I think that this would be a nice chance for the children to still feel connected to each other.

Please let me know if I can ever help you in any way. My email is: Class2@Bicton.shropshire.sch.uk

Have a good week!

Good morning Class 2,

Can you believe that it’s June already! I can’t believe how fast the time has gone!

I really hope that you are all keeping well. The weather was amazing once again last week, so I hope you were able to make the most of it at home! Thank you once again to those of you who emailed me. It has been so nice to hear all of the stories that you have been getting up to! Please feel free to keep sending these across!

Huge well done to those children who have managed to get such high results in the Rising stars books last week. It has been brilliant to see how well the children have done with these books.

Please let me know if there is anything that I can do to help you. My email is: Class2@Bicton.shropshire.sch.uk

Take care and enjoy your week!

URGENT SURVEY for Nursery, Reception, Year 1 and Year 6

We now have more guidance about what we will be expected to do from June 1st to enable a phased return for pupils to school. We know that we have been asked to open the school for Nursery, Reception, Year one and Year 6 to begin with but these year groups will not all start together on 1st June – these children may well have to attend some days and not others to allow us to keep numbers low.
As you can imagine, we have significant work to do regarding logistics, timetabling, staffing and risk assessments. Some of these measures will include: small numbers of children in classes, staggered start and finish times, using different members of staff and classrooms to space the children out. Children of key workers will still be cared for in school alongside these year groups.

We urgently need to know whether parents of Nursery, Reception, Year 1 and Year 6 intend to send their children back to school from 1st June or whether they feel it is unsafe to do so due to circumstances at home or school. Please complete the survey below to help us in our planning.

Phased reopening survey

Your responses, and the guidance we are awaiting from Shropshire Council, will support us in making a firmer plan and we will share this with you as soon as we can. Thank you for your support.

May the 4th be with you, Class 2!

Once again, it has been fantastic to have heard so many stories from you last week. Many of you sent me some lovely pictures of you baking. It’s been so good to see the different activities which you have been getting up to. If you have not yet emailed me since the lockdown started, then please feel free to. It would be fantastic to hear from you and to see how you’ve got on. As always, if there is anything in the slightest that I can do to support you then please email me and I will get back to you as quick as I can. My email is: Class2@Bicton.shropshire.sch.uk

Thank you to those of you who have contacted me about the Rising Stars reading books. There is a large number of you now signed up. If you would like your child to have an e-book version of a book they would normally read in school, then please just let me know the name of your last book and I will get that sorted for you!

Just finally, I thought it would be a nice idea to share some class news with each other. Therefore, if you would like some news to be shared on this site for everyone else in the class to read, then please email me your news and I will put it on the site for next week. I think it’ll be a nice way to stay connected with each other.

Please take good care of yourselves! I hope that you all have a fantastic week!

Good morning Class 2!

I hope that you are all well. Myself and Mrs Allen are missing you all very much! It is very strange to not have seen most of you for so long. If you have not got in touch with me yet, then please do! It would be amazing to hear from you and to see how you’re coping during this time. Thank you to those of you who emailed last week. It looks as if you are doing incredibly well. We are incredibly proud of you! Keep up the good work!

Thank you to those of you who have contacted me regarding Rising Stars last week. Just as a reminder, this provides every child in the class, apart from free readers, with an e-book which directly follows on from the books we use in school. So, if your child has read all of the books they were given before schools shut, I can provide you with the books which follow on. If you are interested, please send me the name of the last book your child read and will give you a link for you to read the subsequent books.

Here is the home learning for this week. As always, these are a selection of activities which you can choose from.

Looking forward to hearing from you. My email is: Class2@Bicton.Shropshire.sch.uk

Take care of yourselves!

Good morning Class 2,

Welcome to your third official week of home learning! I really do hope that you were all able to have as nice an Easter holiday as possible in the circumstances. I hope you had a cracking time with your Easter eggs! The weather has been really nice over the past few weeks, so I hope you had the chance to be able to make the most of it!

Please find attached the home learning for this week:

Home learning

Just finally, I wanted to let you know that I have been able to find books online which follow on from the books which were given to the children prior to the lockdown. This is a resource for “Rising Stars” books. So, if your child has a book which has been published by “Rising Stars”, and you would like me to give you access to books specific for your child, please email me and I will get that all sorted for you. The e-books will be books which are in the range we have in school. There may be a couple of children who may have gone past this stage, but I am hoping that the vast majority of the children will now have this resource available for them.

My email is: Class2@Bicton.Shropshire.sch.uk

I hope that you are all well. As always, please email me if you ever need any help or advice and I will get back to you as soon as I can!

Good morning Class 2!

I hope that you all had a good week last week. Thank you once again to those of you who sent me an update of the learning which you did last week. It was brilliant to see!

As you may have seen from Mrs Johnson’s post yesterday, there is an Easter pack which we have got for your child to complete if they wish to. These next two weeks would normally have been the Easter holidays. Therefore, there is no pressure whatsoever to complete the tasks. These tasks are uploaded so that if you wish to carry on doing some work at home then you have the opportunity to do so. I have also attached some fun Maths activities alongside some Phonics ideas. Once again, these are totally optional. The activities which are linked to this post will be the exact same for next week too. However, if you complete these tasks and decide that next week you would like some further tasks, then please email me and I will send some across to you.

There have been some parents emailing me to let me know that their child has read the books which they were given from school. This is really pleasing to hear! If you would like your child to be reading more books suitable to their reading level then please click on the link I have provided to Oxford Owl. You will need to register but it is completely free. There is a fantastic amount of books available. If you need any help with this then please contact me. https://home.oxfordowl.co.uk/books/free-ebooks/

As always, if you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact me. It is Class2@Bicton.shropshire.sch.uk

I wish you all a very Happy Easter!
