Write Stuff Sentence Stacking Lesson
The lesson begins at 9:45am each morning through the Training Space YouTube Channel. Please find the link below.
Reading lessons
As well as using Bug Club online, the children can practise their reading skills through 'Reciprocal Reading,' our method of developing reading in the classroom. Reciprocal Reading requires the children to choose a book that they will enjoy reading and then focuses on four key skills (summarising, predicting, clarifying and questioning). We have attached a Reciprocal Reading sheet, bookmarks and skill cards to support the children with this strategy at home. Furthermore, please find the '100 books to read before you leave Hever' list, as well as certificates that you can allocate based on how many books the children have read.
Most importantly, read for enjoyment!

Home Learning Work and Information
Please find links for the websites we use in school to support children’s learning. The children will have their logins and should use these to access the work set. If in the event you are already self-isolating please email the Office to request your child’s logins. All children in school will be sent home with their logins today.
In addition, please see the task board of project based learning linked to the class topic for your child to complete.
