Hello Robins J
What have you got planned for today? Remember that our discussion is active this morning for any questions you may have.
This morning Miss Gillam has read a story for you:

Why not find a quiet spot this morning and start your day with some yoga? This will help you to remain calm and relaxed, as well as improve your concentration before you do some school work. I have attached a Garden Yoga activity to get you started, however there are also some great videos on YouTube if you search for ‘Yoga for children’.
Our Oak National Academy lessons continue this morning. In English we will be looking at the features of a poem and in maths we will continue to look at time.

‘Save our Seas’ work:
Our whole school project continues today with lots more ‘Save Our Seas’ activities attached in the document below! Thank you to all the children who have delivered some super work to school for our sharing window – its looks great!!
This morning, listen to a Sea Turtle Story with Miss Thwaites today: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2IOIi1kFHSU&feature=youtu.be
After you have listened to Miss Thwaites reading her story, why not have a go at completing a sea-themed word search or making your own salt dough starfish or turtle? I have attached the instructions below – all you need is flour, water and salt!
Have a great day everyone! Speak tomorrow,
Miss Beattie and Mrs Esling xxx
Message from Mrs Powell:
At the age of 11, Tom Gregory became the youngest person ever to swim the English Channel.
It was 05:00 on 6 September 1988 and Tom Gregory stood on the tip of France. Behind him was his coach, John Bullet. In front of him was the vast, black, English Channel. Tom, in swimming trunks, faced the water. Out there, somewhere, was home. On the water, a light appeared in the dark. A small boat came to shore. Tom put on his cap and goggles, and walked into the Channel. He followed the boat, and, when it got too deep, he started to swim. He didn't stop for 12 hours.
Tom was 11 years old, this record has never been broken!
Wow! What do you think he saw? How do you think he felt? What would have been his biggest challenges?
