Because it is reading week, we are going to push reading plus this week. Please log on and spend 20-30 minutes a day on reading plus. However, if for you reading has to be with a real book please pick up a text and don’t forget to let us all know your recommendations. You could take a picture of yourself ‘caught reading’ and send it in, when you do please let me know if you would like the picture putting on the website.

PSHCE 

For your learning in PSHCE I would like you to take some time and be reflective. Next week we are going to be going back to school. I want you to take some time this week to think about and reflect on this and have attached a story and a little activity to help.

Please read the story below carefully and think about your feelings about returning to school. I would like you to answer these questions in your English book then send me a photo. This way I can get back to you and answer any of your questions and support you with any worries you have.

1)What are you most excited about?

2)Is there anything you are worried about?

3)Have you got any questions that you want to ask or are unsure about?
