Today we started to write our playscripts for Perseus and Medusa.

Please print the sheet if you can or just write out in the same format.

Playscript

You should have done you characters and the scene, now its time to start the dialogue.

So we decided that King Polydectes would speak first.

KIng Polydectes: (Begging.) Please will you marry me Danae?  I love you so much.  I                                                 am the king and I could give you anything you ever wanted.

Danae: (Putting her head in her hands.) No!  I’ve told you a million times, I will NOT                                                                        marry you!

And so on… Please watch to video clip to help you. From 1:15 onwards.  The storyboard will help too.

Maths 

Please use the grid method to solve these problems,  You can move to challenge 2 or 3 if you are confident and you are whizzing through.  Please remember to work it out using the grid method – not the method in the textbook example.

Afternoon French – We practised the months of the year and saying our birthdays in French so please have a practise.

We were also asked to design a poster for the building site opposite reminding children to keep out of the site and to stay safe.  The winning poster will be enlarged, laminated and displayed on the fence around the site for all to see.  If you’d like to design a poster and send in a picture we can send it off too.

Just a quick note to let you know that we will be completing our statutory RSE (Relationship and Sex Education) lessons over the next couple of weeks.

Please see the original post from Miss Roberts for more information on what each year group will be taught.

I hope you have all had a lovely Easter break and have made the most of the beautiful weather.

This half term we will still have PE on Wednesday, this time it will be with Mr Boffey.

We will not have Forest School this half term, but we will be doing some gardening and trying to make a nice little outdoor area for our class.  The children will not need a change of clothes for this activity.

If you have a plant pot or two spare at home (just plastic ones are fine) please can you send them in so that children can each plant a sunflower seed.  They will then be able to bring their plant home at the end of term – so long as they’re not too tall by then!

If anyone has any other planters or pots that you no longer need, I’m sure we would make very good use of them and they would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you and I’m looking forward to seeing you all tomorrow!

Mrs Hilditch

Well done everyone you have made it through another stint of home schooling!!! We really hope that this is the last time and we cannot wait to see all the children in school next week.   We hope they’re really excited to see each other and get back in, but we also realise some may be feeling a little anxious.  Please try to reassure them that we are planning lots of lovely activities over the next few weeks to get them settled back in and we’ve prepared a lovely warm welcome for Monday.

For the rest of this term, we will have forest school and gardening activities on a Tuesday morning.  Please come to school for the whole day in some warm, older clothes that you don’t mind getting a bit mucky and some old trainers is fine.  We will try to go out whatever the weather so please dress appropriately (layers are good!)  If you bring wellies or extra layers, please just bring in a named carrier bag.  These will stay outside under our veranda area – so please remind your child to collect them at the end of the day too.

We will have PE with the Crossbar coaches outside every Wednesday afternoon so please come in your PE kits for the whole day as before.

We hope you all have a lovely weekend and we can’t wait to see you all on Monday.  Parents – have a little celebration this evening too – you’ve earned it!!!
