‘Nurturing Individual Excellence’

Monday 29th June

It's Monday!

 

Welcome to the start of a new week.

 

We hope you all had a fantastic weekend.

 

We are continuing with our sea theme but we are thinking about how we need to take care of our oceans.

 

 

We will also be talking about recycling.

  • Plastic in our seas is a real problem.

 

  • Look through this information on the Newsround website.

  • There is a lot to look and talk about on the page so we are going to spend a few days talking through it at school.

 

Polluted Seas Investigation

 

  • It's not just plastic that is a problem in our seas, oil can be a problem too.

 

  • We are going to be doing this at school today. You could try it at home.

Maths: Oak Academy - Describing the capacity of objects

 

  • In this lesson you will compare capacity using the words full, half full, nearly full, empty, nearly empty.

 

  • As always, these activities work best when you are with your child, talking together.
