Good morning Oak Class!
I can’t believe we’re in our final week! Had we been in school as normal, we wouldn’t have been doing a great deal of actual work this week which is why Mrs Poole and I are setting the BBC maths and English. You can access that when you’re at home but we may not be doing those lessons with you on the days you’re in school. We’ve also suggested some other lessons and activities that you can work through during the week.

Maths

I know lots of you really enjoy Fitness Marshall. If you want to get active you can search his videos on YouTube. Here’s an example to get you started:
Make sure you have a go at Mr Garvey’s PE Challenge for today too!
Stilling time
With schools still partially closed, many people working from home, and social distancing becoming part of our lives, it can feel like work, family time, and relaxing all blur together. This meditation encourages us to pause and reset between tasks, helping you feel more present and better able to enjoy whatever comes next.
I hope you’ve enjoyed today’s learning. See you all tomorrow!
Love, Mrs Fitz x
