Reflection Time and Prayer of the Day

Good Morning Brown Clee!

We hope that you are continuing to enjoy the remote learning activities that your teachers are continuing to post on the class news pages. We are enjoying seeing the fantastic photos of everything that you are getting up to!

We are very busy at the moment preparing for possibly opening for Reception, Year 1 and Year 6 after half term, as there will be quite a lot of changes that we will have to make in order to follow the new guidance.

Today I thought you might like to see an The Oak National Academy:

I hope you enjoyed singing “Circle of Life”! (And if you spotted that this was recorded before VE Day, well done!)

We have another song to sing today as it is Ellowyne’s birthday!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ELLOWYNE

Prayer of the Day

Dear God,
You like us to laugh and enjoy the good things in life.
Teach us not to take ourselves too seriously.
Help us to enjoy everything that we have and all the opportunities that come our way.
Amen.

Out and about in Shropshire

Challenge 2: To travel the length of the Shropshire Way

Our current class challenge is taking us all over Shropshire on a walking route of 190miles.

You can take a look at the route here:

http://www.shropshiresgreatoutdoors.co.uk/walking/the-shropshire-way-main-route/

Today I have gathered miles from Class 3 totalling 24miles…….we have only 2 miles to go to get to the end of the Shropshire Way! 

Fantastic work Class 3!!

Class 1’s Sharing Post.

Good afternoon Class 1! I have really enjoyed receiving all your email and photos. There are so many lovely things happening at home!

Reflection Time and Prayer of the Day

Good Morning Brown Clee!

It is a funny old world at the moment – and I am sure that everyone is experiencing a whole range of emotions – from fear and anxiety to joy and excitement – all of which are perfectly human and normal.  I think the one emotion that I am experiencing at the moment is Hopehope that the cases of coronavirus will continue to decrease, hope that all our families are safe and well, hope that one day we will be back in school together again in a ‘normal’ happy school. Hope is an important word that can mean many things – have a watch and listen to this short video about Hope.

The week is forecast to be quite a sunny one, so as the sun comes out, lets enjoy listening to this well known song about the Sun Coming Out Tomorrow!

Prayer of the Day

Dear God,
When things go wrong, help us to keep hoping.
When we are sad, help us to remember that happiness will come.
When we are lonely, help us to remember that people care for us.
When we are worried, help us to trust that you will never leave us.
Please help us to live in hope.
Amen.

Reading

If you’ve missed any of the chapters or want to hear them again, here’s a link to all the previous posts since Easter.

Here is the 1st part of the third chapter of The Graveyard Book. It starts just after yesterday’s ended.

 

 

Here’s some questions about what you’ve just listened to:

1.) According to the start of the chapter, what is there in every graveyard?
2.) How would you describe Miss Lupescu?
3.) What did Miss Lupescu make Bod eat?
4.) What is a Night-Gaunt?

Writing

This week’s writing task (will carry over Monday and Tuesday) is to write your own conversation between Bod and Miss Lupescu. It could carry on the conversation from today’s part of the chapter or it could be a completely new conversation.

Remember, when including direct speech in our writing, we need to remember to punctuate it carefully so that it is clear to the reader who is saying what.

  • Place inverted commas (speech marks) around what is being said
  • Speech should start with a capital letter (unless a sentence has been split – e.g. “We’re going to be late…” she shouted, “if you don’t hurry up.”)
  • Include closing punctuation at the end of our speech (before the inverted comma) – usually it will be a comma, full stop, question mark or question mark; however, as long as the punctuation mark is being used correctly, you can also use dashes, ellipses, semi-colons and colons)
  • If you start with the reporting clause, you should place a comma after it (e.g. She shouted, “We’re going to be late if you don’t hurry up.”

Happy Birthday Hugo!

Good morning everyone (it is just about the morning!) – today is a special day for Hugo – it is his birthday – so let’s join in and sing together!

 

School Child Care Provision

With the potential opening to Reception, Year 1 and Year 6 on the 1st June, we would like to reassure the critical keyworkers that we can still offer child care if absolutely needed.

This Care will take place in the hall, between the hours of 9am to 3.15pm and children will be kept separate from the other children in school in line with the protection measures that we have to follow. The child care would need to be booked in advance, by the Friday the preceding week, as we have been doing since March 23rd.

If we open on June 1st, we will not be able to offer wrap around care before the school day or after the school day, as we have to ensure we keep children in their groups to minimise any risk of spreading the virus. We appreciate that this may be tricky for working parents, but we have to prioritise the protection of children, families and staff.

Class 1’s Sharing Post

Good afternoon everyone. I hope you have all had a lovely day!

Please take the time to have a look at what members of Class 1 have been up to:

 

 

Reflection Time and Daily Prayer

Good Morning Brown Clee!

First of all I have an apology to make to Polly – as it was her birthday yesterday, and I forgot to post her birthday song!  So I need to put that right first of all!

So a big HAPPY BIRTHDAY POLLY!

And just so I don’t forget it is also Peter’s birthday today! So a massive HAPPY BIRTHDAY PETER!

It has been an exceptionally busy week behind the scenes since the announcement last weekend. Hopefully parents will have received my emails with the details of what school will look like for Reception, Year 1 and Year 6 children – and sadly it will be very different to what is normal. However we will make it as safe, and as happy as we possibly can! I would like to say thank you to parents for replying with their views on whether they will be sending their child into school if we open on 1st June – this really helps us with our planning.  But also a massive THANK YOU to all of our families for just being so supportive in so many ways: carrying out the remote learning activities with your children, communicating with teachers and sharing photographs, being so understanding of the challenges that we are facing and being so supportive in general – we really appreciate you all!

There are further challenges ahead, and this is all so unique and new, but we know that by working together, continuing to be the Brown Clee team that we are and that has already achieved so much, we will be able to do the right thing for our children!

Here’s a short video called “Joy and the Carp” that shows the importance of working together, aiming for goals, persevering and simply being kind!

Wishing everyone a restful and wonderful weekend!

Prayer of the Day

Dear God,
Help us to work together as a team.
Help us to show patience and understanding.
May we not be afraid to ask for help.
Please help us to realise that even when we feel alone
you are always on our team.
Amen.
