* LATEST UPDATE – May half term *

Hello everyone,

I hope you are all still keeping safe and well.

To allow staff to prepare for a phased return for some year groups, school will not be open over the half term period so there will be no provision for Key Workers’ children. Please see a letter below with more detail.

May half term

We will be sending out more information later this week, explaining our current plans for a phased return, so please keep an eye on the website / your emails.

Thank you for your continued support.

Please do not get stressed over the amount of work you complete, we understand everyone’s circumstances are different and you are all doing an amazing job.  In this normally very busy world of juggling being parents, work commitments and social engagements- this is an opportunity we don’t get very often so please make the most of the family time together. If it works that you are getting through the work we set or your child is helping out at home and playing they are still learning either way! If you have any questions or queries please don’t hesitate to get in touch. Take care and stay safe.

Home learning activities, week beginning 18.05.2020

Hello Nursery Children and adults, I hope you enjoyed some of the Dear Zoo activities from last week.

This week we will look at the song ‘5 Little Ducks’.  Mrs Ryan has also recorded a message for you and she needs your help to find Ted!

Have fun,

Ms Stone – Nursery@bicton.shropshire.sch.uk

5 Little Ducks went swimming one day

EAD : Sing the song with your child, encouraging them to join in with finger and arm actions.

 

PSED: Talk about how mother duck felt when she was losing her ducklings.  What do you think haopened to the Ducklings?

 

Maths:  Number names to five, more, fewer, duck, duckling, pond, far, away, over

Ask questions –

* There are two ducklings on the pond and three far away. How many are there all together?

* There are only four ducklings on the pond. How many are lost?

Use these counting cards – -Five-Little-Ducks-Countinig-Cards .

 

Literacy:

Make your own props to retell the story –

Our Crafts ~N~ Things » Blog Archive » Duck Pond  The Lion is a Bookworm: Storytime: Ducks   Five Little Ducks Craft - Messy Little Monster

 

Hello and find the Teddy from Mrs Ryan

Have a go at hiding you own Teddy (toys).  Give clues how to find him.  Send photos of where your Teddy was hiding to Mrs Ryan – Nursery@bicton.shropshire.sch.uk

Ted begins with ‘t’.  Have a look around your home and see what other things you can find that begin with the sound ‘t’.

*Update 15th May 2020*

Dear families

Firstly, I just want to say thank you for the swift response to our parent survey for those with children in Nursery, Reception, Year 1 and Year 6.  We appreciate and fully understand the comments and concerns raised and these will be considered as part of our planning for a phased re-opening.

At present, we are awaiting further information from the Local Authority who in turn are awaiting clarification on a range of issues from the Department for Education.  As soon as we have more information, we will let you know which groups of children we are able to invite back into school first and when this will start to take place. In the meantime, we thank you for your patience and understanding.

Finally, thank you for all the photos you have been sending through to class teachers. It is so lovely to see what children are doing and know that you are all safe. I’ve got a photo to share with you this week. Yesterday morning Coco starting barking crazily outside and, when we looked through the window, this is what we saw…how beautiful!

We have no idea how they got into our garden or where they came from!

Take care
