PLEASE MAKE SURE ANY HOME LEARNING DURING ISOLATION IS COMPLETED AND RETURNED TO SCHOOL.

Year 2 had such fun following instructions to make their very own disgusting sandwiches like in the story that we had read. They were amazing chefs and thought of lots of verbs to collect and synonyms vocabulary for ‘disgusting’. We are looking forward to writing our own disgusting soup recipes.

Hello Year 6!

I hope you are all fit and well?  We should be back in school on Tuesday 17th November and I cannot wait to get back to class. I hope you are keen to get started again!

For Monday’s work, you can see the plan by downloading it here or looking on SEESAW.

Please remember to bring in all work completed during your isolation when you return to school.

See you in school!

Best wishes.

Hello everyone,

Following a few initial problems earlier today, it seems most of you are up and running with SEESAW. I’ve tested several accounts now and it seems that if you follow the instructions closely on the letter with the ‘home learning code’ and QR code and go to app.seesaw.me (or download the CLASS app)  then you should be OK as long as signing in as a student -not a family member.  The TEXT codes in the letters sent out a couple of weeks ago do still work – you need to leave spaces in between the groups of 4 letters :

example  :   FHNG  EEHT  ANDS  SSET     Each child’s code is different and if logging in this way, you’ll only be able to see your own work uploaded.

You should then be able to upload work and see the ‘activities’ tab. I’ve tried it at my house and it seems to be OK.

Again – here to support if you need me.

I am going to upload maths answers to Monday and Tuesday on Tuesday evening, because a few people have not managed to access the work yet it seems.

Keep at it and keep safe.

Have a good evening!

Mr Day

Hello Year 6

I hope you are all healthy and well!  I am missing you already! 🙂

Read through the weekly tasks, which you can access here. Please remember that we will be using SEESAW to send work back to school – see your account / ask your parents to check their parentmail for access.

If you have any problems or questions, please make contact with me through SEESAW or through the school office email at: info@stmaryscecrompton.oldham.sch.uk

We will get through this together!

Stay safe. Stay happy. Keep positive!

Hello Year 6

As discussed in class today (4/11/20) we will be ‘upping our game‘ a little bit as regards spelling.

On top of your 15 weekly ‘group’ spellings, I will be dropping in a further 5 from the sheets below. Don’t forget: you’ve been given your own personal copy so keep it safe and use it. The tests will now be out of 20.

‘Grand spell’ tests will still be out of 20 and I will tell you which words to revise before those tests.

Remember: the spelling RULES are even more important than just the words.

Put the effort in and you’ll do well!

Hello Year 6!

Your homework over the holiday is to….have some time off, have some fun and relax a bit (with a good book!)

Seriously though it has been a tough half term with lots to get to grips with, so do use the time to re-charge your batteries and be ready for school again in November.

Please just make sure you pick up that reading book and read x3 times this next week.

Have a lovely, well-earned holiday and I’ll see you soon.

Mr Day

Mrs Hardman challenged us to put the fire out in Pudding Lane, but by the time we had got water from the River Thames the fire had spread! We had great fun learning why the fire of London started and how hard it was to stop it spreading.

Hello Y6!

1. Make sure you have read x3 times as usual by Monday – be sure to collect those new/unusual words.
2. Get ready for GRAND SPELL test next week – gp 1 to 7

That’s it!

Make sure you relax this weekend and have some fun.
