Today is World Book Day!

Check your class’s remote learning timetable to see some of the exciting things that you could do. Don’t forget to send in photos of anything as we’d love to see them.

We also have a great selection of ideas below from Mrs Beardwood which you might want to do about your favourite book. You could also pick a book from Books For Topics to read or listen to and complete an activity about.

Reading at Home

Good morning. Just a reminder that there are still various ways in which the children can continue to be reading whilst learning from home.

By logging in to Oxford Owl, the children can select their age range and then choose from a wide selection of online books to read.

Books for Topics, provides book lists for reading for pleasure or for reading non-fiction and fiction books linked to school topics. It also provides links to Storytime Online, where children can select their age range and use QR codes to take them to stories being read on YouTube by famous authors.

Selecting the right ZPD books for your child to read if they wish to continue their AR quizzing is also easier than ever. Visit www.arbookfind.co.uk to search for suitable books and to check their ZPD. To quiz, the children simply need to log in to Accelerated Reader.

Digital Library Books

Telford and Wrekin libraries offer members access to a huge range of online children’s books which you can ‘borrow’ by clicking on the link below.

https://telford.overdrive.com/collection/153986

This is a great way to get access to books that are part of AR. Just use AR book finder  to check their ZPD.

Non-members can join online and then have the same access.

Teams Dos and Don’ts

We are so proud of how hard you are all working at home during these difficult times. We can’t wait to see you all again soon but for now here are some top tips on how to use TEAMs sensibly and safely. 

 

-Only use teams chat to send a message to school staff.

-Check for comments sent to you by your teacher.

-Give yourself time to have regular screen breaks. This includes getting some fresh air.

-Let adults in your household know when you will need access to the computer.

-Behave online as you would in a classroom.

-Always remember to interact respectfully and sensibly.

-Don’t open any messages or invitations from anyone who is not a member of school staff.

-Don’t use Teams Chat to send messages to your friends– it should only be used as an online learning tool and not a social media site.
