  • Come to a class circle time at 2:15pm today on the Year 3  Whole Class group. It is optional but it would be lovely to see you all :)

Challenge time- Who can make the best den?

What's a den? I hear you cry. A den is somewhere that you can sit and read or sleep - any activities really! You can use things around your home to make it. For example using two chairs and a sheet draped over the top, using the table and putting a cloth over it. Look at the pictures below for ideas.

Art - Plan making Tierra Del Fuego 

You have drawn Tierra Del Fuego before but  this art task is slightly different. This week you will be planning making a 3D model of Tierra Del Fuego using anything from around your home. You could use cereal boxes, old toilet rolls, paper, old milk cartoons and much more! Be creative. This week is just to plan and get your things together- I will give you an art session next week to build your models. Remember is an island with dense jungles and beautiful beaches. Look at pictures of Tierra Del Fuego to help you.

Have a creative afternoon!

Circle Time

Everything is a bit strange at the moment but remember it is important to talk about how we are feeling. If you feel in the blue zone a lot please speak to me or a trusted adult. Talking about what is making you sad can make you feel better!

Lets get started with circle time.
A game to start-
Would you rather:
be a frog or a butterfly?
be able to fly or see through walls?
have green or purple hair? 
​
I am proud of myself this week because.....
​
Circle time this week is about reflecting on your week. While you reflect I want to remind you of the expectations we have for google classroom:

- Joining on time
-  Getting your resources ready before the session begins
- Being dressed (no pyjamas!)
- Focusing during the sessions
- Having headphones if you are in a noisy environment 
-Finding a quiet place to do your best learning 

Are you doing all of these things?
Do you have any green for growth?

My tickle pink is that I have remembered to remind you about your interventions this week.
My green for growth is that I need to remember to speak a bit slower during my live sessions. 

​

I am so proud of all of you for how you have taken on live sessions :) have a fantastic weekend! Make sure you get out for walks- having fresh air is so important!

ELSA

Things are very different at the moment and because of this we might feel a bit in the blue, red or yellow zone. This is completely normal- we might be sad to not be in school, missing our friends, bored of being inside or worried about everything that is going on at the moment. 

Your task today is to look at Emily's ELSA blog. She is asking you to think about ways you can get yourself into the green zone. Have a think and note some down- for example go for a walk, take deep breaths, do some exercise, read a book give a family member a hug and many more. Remember talking about how you feel is very important!

Geography

Use google maps to explore where Tierra Del Fuego is on a worls map and to zoom in and out to see what it looks like up close and from far away. 

Which country is Tierra Del Fuego in?
Which sea is Tierra Del Fuego nearest to?

Challenge- Can you make the map look like  globe?
