Reception

In the event of your child self-isolating or being ill, for the first 48 hours please follow the suggested links outlined below for home learning. We do understand if your child is too ill to do on-line learning, so do not worry.

If your child is not at school for 14 days due to bubble closure or self- isolating, then please access your Tapestry account as weekly plans and activities will be sent through there via "Memos".

Below are some links to useful websites and YouTube videos to use for help with home learning if you are isolating at home. We have included links to Read Write Inc. which will support in the teaching of phonics and reading as well as the White Rose Maths links to our weekly foci.

While at home, there are lots of things that you can be helping your child with in order to develop their independence and self-care skills e.g.

• Name writing
• Drawing pictures of people and encouraging to add finer details
• Putting on and doing up our own coats and shoes
• Playing games and taking turns
• Box modelling - building for a purpose
• Baking 
• Writing - labels, cards, shopping lists
• Sorting - socks, cutlery, toys - by size, by type, by patterns
• Counting - objects, matching to numerals, combining groups, who has more, who has less
• Singing Nursery rhymes/counting songs

Purple Mash and Tapestry

We have recently bought into these 2 wonderful online learning platforms. 

You will have had an activation email for your child's Tapestry account already and Purple Mash login details for your child have also been sent home ( they may be stuck inside the front cover of your child's reading diary).

On Purple Mash you will find all sorts of exciting games and activities to complete. Your teacher can also set '2Do' tasks for you to complete. 

Tapestry will be used in the event of Self-isolation or a full class bubble closure. On here you will find the weekly plan of activities set by teachers as well as fun tasks and activities to complete daily/weekly. We really love to see what your child has been getting up to at home so please do send us photos etc so we can stay in touch and share those "wow" moments.
