Good morning Ganymede,

I hope you have all had a great weekend. Yesterday I watched the snow falling from my window and hoped it would get heavier so I could go out and have some more fun in it. Anyhow, it wasn't to be. Can you believe we have been doing online learning for 4 weeks now and we have got through the month of January. Happy February everyone!

For the new month let's try and get 100% attendance on the online register. Looking forward to a catch up on zoom later this afternoon. We will be playing a game and having a chat about how we are finding things. The video is fixed so fingers crossed we will be all able to see each other. Please prepare something to share: what I am proud of? and what I am struggling with?

So let's get started.

Before you start your learning today make sure you sign the remote learning register by clicking here.

Below is your timetable for the day.                                                                               Spellings for the week

PE

You can join our good friend Joe again or you can do 10 jumping jacks, 10 star jumps and then run on the spot for 30 seconds. That should get your blood flowing to your brain ready for your learning.

Phonics

This week we are going to be learning the different spellings for the /n/ sound

Look at the /n/ sound in the following words and see if you can find the different ways of spelling /n/

Say the sounds and read the words:

banner

sign                               (Hint: did you find these spellings: n  nn  gn   kn  ne)

Now draw this table in your book and add these words under the correct spelling. Can you find anymore in your reading book to add to the list.
