Reflection Time and Prayer of the Day

Good Morning Brown Clee!

Yesterday we continued thinking about our Christian Value of this half term, which is Friendship, and about how important it is to be a good friend and have good friends.  We learnt that good friends are faithful, reliable, interested, enjoyable, neighbourly, dependable and special!.

Can you think of any other words that you would use to describe what makes a good friend?……

…..I can think of some: a good friend is kind, a good friend is thoughtful, a good friend puts other people ahead of themselves, a good friend care for others.

Today I would like you to watch this video from the Pace Trust, and have a think more about how important friendship is.

Having friends means that we are never alone – that there is always someone who cares about you.  It means that you are part of a team, and that applies even now, when we are apart.

 

Prayer of the Day

Thank you God, for the care of friends.
Help us to be good friends to others, even when we are apart.

Help us to think of our friends at this difficult time,
And may we always look for opportunities to help other people.
Amen.

Reflection Time and Prayer of the Day

 

Friends are so important – have a quiet moment now and try and imagine what life would be like without a friend.  How would you feel?  Now think about all the many friends that you have and how they make you feel?  How can you show your friends that you are thinking about them, that you still care about them even though you can’t see them?

If you decide that you wish to share a message, via email, photograph or video  to your school friends on the school website, then please ask your parents to email them to admin@brownclee.shropshire.sch.uk and we will share your messages on school news.  It is so important that we maintain contact and stay connected with our friends in these difficult times.

Enjoy singing along with this song from Out of the Ark – Seeds of friendship

Seeds of Friendship Lyrics

Prayer of the Day

Dear God,
We thank you for our friends and for the happy times that we share with them.
Help us to be a good friend to them.
During this time when we can’t play with our friends,
Please help us to find creative ways to keep in touch.
Thank you that you are our friend and will be with us always.
Amen

Class 1 and 2 Parents: How to help your child with remote learning workshop.

Good morning,

We are holding a virtual workshop for Class 1, and now also Class 2 parents (as we have had an expression of interest) on how you can help support your children with the remote learning.   It is going to be held on Wednesday 13th January at 2pm, and Mrs Fox, Mrs Morris and myself will be providing information on supporting children with their phonics, letter formation and reading, as well as being able to answer any questions that you may have.

The workshop will be held on Microsoft Teams – a free application, that you can download on a tablet or a laptop – here is a link:

www.microsoft.com/en-gb/microsoft-365/microsoft-teams/download-app

It is not essential to download this prior to the workshop, but it might make it more straightforwards.

If you have any specific questions, it would be really helpful to email them in to admin@brownclee.shropshire.sch.uk before the workshop to allow us to be as helpful as possible.

I will be emailling Class 1 and 2 parents on Wednesday morning with the link to the Teams workshop, and I kindly ask that this link is not shared.

Reading is so important and we try to encourage the children to read every day. I’m sure you have lots of books at home that the children can read and have read to them, but in addition to this you could use the Oxford Owl Free eBook library to access reading books which are colour banded, as they are in school.

The log in details for the class account are:

Username : class2brownclee

Password: dog123

To access the books please click on the link below, click ‘log in’ in the top left hand corner and enter the details above.

Don’t worry if it says ‘We’re sorry’ Users are experiencing issues – I have tried it and it does work.

Workshop for Class 1 Parents: How to help your child with remote learning.

Good morning Parents,
We hope you are all well and managing with being at home and potentially juggling work and supporting your children with remote learning.  We are very much aware of the challenges and if there is anything we can do to help please do ask!
Mrs Fox and I would like to offer a workshop using Microsoft Teams where we will be able to talk to parents about how you can help with phonics, sounding out, reading, spellings, and anything that you wish to ask!  We use Microsoft Teams for staff meetings and governor meetings and it is really easy to access.  You can download the app here and it is free:
We want to help as much as possible so can do a workshop at the following times and in order to be as flexible as possible, can you please let us know a) if you are interested and b) which day/time would suit you best.  We are only planning on doing one workshop so will go with the majority vote.
Tuesday 12th January: 10am – 11am
Tuesday 12th January 2pm – 3pm
Tuesday 12th January 6pm – 7pm
Wednesday 13th January: 10am – 11am
Wednesday 13th January 2pm – 3pm
Wednesday 13th January 6pm – 7pm
If there is anything in particular that you would like to know about at this workshop please let me know so that Mrs Fox and I can prepare.
