Hello
Hello Swan Class, we have come back to another strange time at school and another lockdown. This can be a very anxious time, but just like last time please cherish the extra time you have with family and make memories together when you can.
We hope you have been enjoying the online remote sessions. We have been joining some at school too. :-)
We are sending activity packs to accompany the online learning as well as offering the remote learning timetable.
As always there are things that you can be doing at home every day to help your child, some ideas are listed below and attached is a pinterest document with lots of household items that can be used for lots of fun and engaging activities.
1) Practice the writing of their names- fine motor skills
This could be with a pencil, writing in flour, shaving foam, play dough, with felt tip pens etc.
2) Dressing and undressing- independence skills
With support or verbal instructions with slowly less and less support for our children
Remembering for them to try and turn the more complex clothing the correct way or zip their coat up for example
3) Counting-
when out and about on walks looking at door or car registration numbers.
counting their toys
using money to play shops at home
using building blocks to add amounts
4) Cooking
Can they make their own snack
Can they get or pour their own drink
Can they make a sandwich
Can you make cakes or pizza and they measure the ingredients or get the cooking utensils etc
5) Reading
Stories, comics, online websites
Answer questions
why do they like this etc
Please stay safe and we hope this helps.
Please like always email if you have any questions or need further assistance with anything
Thanks
Swan Class

Hello Swan Class
We hope you are well and have had fun half terms! We are looking forward to seeing you for another fun packed half term.
This half term our topic is a question- 'What lights up the winter sky at night?'
This is a science and RE based topic so we will be looking into light sources and religious festivals. The curriculum map will be sent through email. So please watch out for what the children will be learning in school and what you could also do at home to help embed their learning.
As always if there are any questions or concerns please ring the school office, talk to myself or the family workers or use the class email which is checked regularly.
Again as a national lockdown takes places on Thursday please stay safe and well. Please follow the school guidance if your child or any family falls unwell this is vital.
There is still lots to enjoy whilst in lockdown just like last time-
Autumn baking at home
Autumn walks seeing what nature things you can find? -acorns, conkers, different coloured leaves.
Go on an Autumn hunt
Draw pictures together
Read stories and talk about the book together
Watch movies and eat special snacks
Make towers of bricks who can make the biggest or big small and medium towers?
mix paint and paint pictures.
There are lots of ideas on google and pinterest.
Keep busy and keep safe
Love from Swan Class Leaves Pathway.

Welcome Back
Hello everyone, we hope you had a good first few days back at school. We can see that everyone is now starting to settle in and learn the school routine. All the children are enjoying being upstairs in the school and like their new classroom. We have all had fun getting to know each other and exploring the toys in our new class.
In our new class we have 10 children, 9 boys and 1 girl. We have the class teacher Rebecca, a TA3 Jayne and two TA’s Debbie and Faiza.
This week more formal learning is taking place and we are starting to learn our new timetable and routines. Things are a little different but children are all coping really well with all the changes in place to keep everyone safe.
Attached to this is a curriculum map for this half term- here you will find information on what the children are learning in school but also some ideas of how you can also help them extend or talk about their learning at home. Also I will email a copy out of the class timetable- please check your emails they will come from this email address: swan@richmondhill.luton.sch.uk. The timetable will help the children prepare for the day in terms of them knowing what they will be learning but also when to look forward to their favourite lessons etc.
Please use the email address above if you have any questions or concerns at all. This is currently in place of home school books.
We are excited to be back at school and as a class team we are really looking forward to learning together and continuing their RHS journeys.
Thank you and take care
Rebecca, Jayne, Debbie and Faiza.
