Jade Home Learning Timetable 

I have updated the timetable for our new half term. I have changed the phonics timings to reflect the two session times. I have also added a new slot for 'Commando Joe's' home learning. More information to follow! 

Friday 5th March 2021 

Wow! We have made it!

As a class, we have learned from home in November, December, January, February and March. I hope that this is the last time. You have all done amazingly well during your home learning and I am so proud of each and every one of you.

Please see below our last home learning plan! We will be meeting on google meet at 9:30 (both groups) and 12:30 to celebrate our achievements. Please feel free to wear what you'd like to this costumes etc. I can't explain how excited I am to see you all on Monday. 

At 9:30, we will be playing phonics bingo. So please choose a bingo card below at random.

Thursday 4th March-World Book Day

Happy World Book Day everyone! I'm so looking forward to sharing our story with you all at our 9:30 Google Meet and enjoying a day of activities linked to our book. Enjoy diving into this new story as well as enjoying reading your favourite stories. Look on the home learning information for a link where you can visit to share lots of new stories with the people in your house. You might even want to dress up as your favourite book character or send me a recommendation for your favourite book on Class Dojo. Most of all enjoy having fun with books today! 

Really looking forward to seeing you all back at school next week!

Happy Monday everyone! 

I hope you had a lovely weekend and 'screen free' day on Friday. A week today and home learning will be over! Please see below for today's home learning. 

See you on google meet! 

Mr O'Halloran 

Friday 26th February 2021 

Today is well being day. This means that you can do anything which makes you happy! We have made it a screen free day. Whenever you can try to do something which doesn't involve a screen (So no iPads, Nintendo switches, Tvs!!). We have attached some activities below. These are only suggestions. You might chose some of these to do or you may not. Either is ok! 

Have a lovely, fun and relaxing day! Let us know on dojo what you get up to (On your parents screen, not yours!)

Monday 22nd February 2021 

Good morning Jade Class! 

I hope that you had a lovely half term! Hopefully we only have a few more weeks until we are all together again. Please see today's home learning below.

The children will now only need to attend one morning google meet. If you attended the google meet at 9:00 last half term, then you will not need to join the meets at 9:30. Everyone will still attend the 12:30 meet as normal. I hope this makes sense. 

Mr O'Halloran 

Friday 12th February 2021

Happy Friday! Welcome to the last day of the half-term. Below are your learning activities for the day. Myself and Mr. O'Halloran are looking forward to seeing you on the Google Meets at 9:30 and 12:30 and hearing about all the fabulous learning you have been doing. 

I want to say a very big well done at the end of this half term for all your amazing hard work and effort that you have put into your home learning this half term. A huge well done to all the adults who have been helping you and I hope you all have a wonderful rest over the half term!

Mrs Baker

Thursday 11th February 2021 

Good morning Jade Class! 

Today we are going to be spending some time learning about Chinese New Year. I have put together lots of activities which you could do this afternoon. Please do as many as you'd like. I can't wait to see your photos on dojo!

We have our phonics 'assessment' meetings over the next two days but if I don't get the opportunity to say, have a lovely, well deserved half term holiday. This half term has been incredibly difficult for the children and for you as parents. You are all doing an amazing job! Thank you as always for your continued support. 

Mr O'Halloran

Wednesday 10th February 2021 

Good morning Jade Class! 

Today you will notice that both of your afternoon activities involve writing. I have tried to avoid this however on Thursday we will be celebrating Chinese New Year so I have had to swap a few things around this week. In school we are having a Chinese New Year themed meal. It would be lovely if the children at home could join in with this too! 

The 12:30 google meet is BINGO again!! This time, since it's almost half term, the children can wear fancy dress to the bingo. Remember to pick a card from the set attached and everyone in your family is welcome to join in.

Mr O'Halloran

During our afternoon google meet (03.02.21), we are going to play bingo! This will help the children to recognise the numbers to 50. Below I have posted 30 bingo cards. Please could your child (and you if you'd like to play!) pick a card. Please pick this at random so we all don't end up with the first card! 

There will be a special prize for the winner(s)! 

Eyes down at 12:30!

Good morning Jade Class! 

Unfortunately, due to the children at school taking part in a Commando Joe's taster session, the morning google meet will be a short registration only. The phonics lesson will take place in the afternoon meet instead. 

See you all at 9:30 for the morning registration and 2:00 for phonics!

I have had some trouble with getting the video links to work when the document becomes a PDF. If the links don't work when you click on them, it should work if you copy and paste it into your search bar. 

Mr O'Halloran 

Friday 15th January 2021 

Well done for another great week! We are so proud of you all and I love seeing all the work you send in. Don't forget to thank your grown ups for all the wonderful work they are doing with you, because they're doing a great job too!

Good morning Jade class. We are, as you know, back to learning at home. I have been telling all of the other teachers at school how good we are at home learning! Jade class are the home learning experts! It might be that you can show your brother and sister who might be at home with you, how hard you work at home! 

We have been through this before and we can do it again. We are ALL in this together. Parents, as always you know where I am. Please email me (jack.o'halloran@morpethallsaints.northumberland.sch.uk)  or call the school office if I can support you in anyway. 

Please see below the home learning for today. We have our daily google meets again! 9:30 and 2:00. You know the routine! 

See you then!

Home Learning - November 2020

Home Learning 4th December 2020 - Week 2 Day 5!

Jade class - we have made it to the end of our home learning. Tomorrow will be the first day that most of us are allowed out of our houses. How exciting! You have all made me and your families extremely proud. Everyone has worked so hard over the past two weeks. I can't wait to see you all on Monday (and Tuesday for a few of us). 

Parents, thank you so much for your efforts over our home learning period. I can only imagine the struggles that you've faced to balance your own work with the children's home learning. The children will all benefit enormously from all of the time and effort you've put it. I hope you all have a lovely weekend and a slightly more 'normal' week next week. You've deserved it! 

Home Learning 3rd December 2020 - Week 2 Day 4!

Good morning Jade Class! Only one more day left of home learning after today!  You are all doing so well! You make me and your parents proud everyday! Please see below today's home learning.

I hope that you have all found Mr Reeson's email and have the link to the google meet sessions.
