Weekly Maths Tasks 

No Video links - if you need help please email me
and don't forget

⭐TT Rockstars
⭐ Hit the Button
⭐ Learning to tell the time


Weekly English Tasks (plus daily reading) 

Complete your All About Me writing and send it to your new teacher

⭐Talk to someone at home about all the questions you have about when you return to school next year. Now see if anyone at home can answer any of them. Next write up the questions (using a ? at the end) and you can either email them or bring them to school in September so your teacher can try to answer them in your first week back.

⭐Can you make up a story and use either your new teacher or your school friends as the main characters? First plan out what will happen at the beginning, middle and end (Story Mountain), then explain this to someone at home, finally write the story up. 
Ask someone to pick out the words you didn't spell correctly and practice these spellings using the techniques we use at school e.g. pyramid, 1 correct and 1 wrong  - which is which?, cover, write, check or putting the word into a sentence. Ask someone at home to give you a spelling test using these words to see if you know them now.


Weekly Wider Curriculum Tasks

Learn all about your new Class bird, RSPB (A-Z) and show what you have learned in a poster

RE Ongoing Task

 


We would like you to learn more about the Churches in your local area. 
What are they called? How are they the same and how are they different? 
Think about why they are special to some people. Talk to people who have been inside to find out more about what is the same and different inside and why that might be.
 Can you work out what all or most Churches seem to have?
You could also research 1 or more of the Churches and find about their history 
or even do some Art or DT work inspired by them.

Future Peregrines - A message from your future teacher


Hi everyone. I am Mrs Longfield and I am really looking forward to being your class teacher next year. 
Last year was a very strange one for lots of you and I know it will have been a long time since some have you have been in a classroom but don't worry I will be there to guide and support you and I am sure you will soon get back into the swing of things.
 Me and Mrs Mackintosh on our amazing holiday in Florida.


This will be my 30th year teaching at Carlton and I can't quite believe where that time has gone. I love our school and enjoy living and working in the village. 

When I am not teaching I love spending time with my family and friends. We love to get together and have barbecues, meals at home or go to nice restaurants. I love going on holiday and every year we go on a fantastic family trip to Cornwall, Scotland or France. My favourite place in the whole world is St Ives in Cornwall. I like nothing more than to sit on the harbour there with a good book and watch the world go by. What is your favourite place to visit and why? 

Other things I like to do are visit the theatre and cinema. I love musicals and have been to London many times to enjoy shows. My favourite has to be Les Miserables. I just love all the songs. Two of my favourite films are The Greatest Showman and Mamma Mia- again because I love the music in them. I even went to see them sat on the beach in the open air last year which was great fun! I love to sing too and am a member of Selby Rock Choir. I have performed at Abbey Road studios- where the Beatles recorded their albums, York Barbican, The NEC in Birmingham, Hyde Park in London and Blackpool tower ballroom to name a few. It's great fun!

When I've got time I also really enjoying reading. There is nothing more relaxing than diving into a good book. I'd love to hear about your favourite films, TV shows books. 

I am a Manchester United fan and love to watch all sport both live and on the TV. I will really miss the Olympics this year as I love watching our country compete and cheering them on. What is your favourite sport and do you play in any teams?

My favourite animals are giraffes and I love nothing more than a day out at Yorkshire Wildlife Park where I can sit and watch these fascinating creatures. Do you have a favourite animal? Maybe you could draw or paint me a picture of them.

Because of lockdown we aren't able to have our usual move up mornings where I can get to know you all better. It would be really great if you could create an ALL ABOUT ME info sheet like mine and email it to me. Tell me all about yourself and ask me any questions about next year. I don't want you to be worried about anything so if you want to know something just ask.
You can either email them to me at : mrslongfield2020@carlton-in-snaith.n-yorks.sch.uk or drop them in at school.
I look forward to hearing all about you all and am really excited for next year.
Until then stay safe and have a great summer!
Mrs Longfield x
