FINAL Weekly home learning Challenges 13th-17th July

Good morning Team Spurrier! 

It is out FINAL week in Reception. Can you believe it?! Where has the time gone? You have all found out your new teacher now too. How are you feeling about it all? Your new teacher is Miss O'Flaherty and Miss Taft, who you know really well from Reception, will be moving up with you too. I have been telling her lots about you all and cannot wait for her to meet you. We have had the best time with you all in Reception and you have been the most amazing class to teach. The time has gone so quickly ahd thank you to all of the parents who have been so supportive over the last few months. We couldn't have done it without you all. We made it through this together. 2020 will be a year that we always remember. Although this is not how we planned the year would go, all of the children have come on leaps and bounds and are more than ready for the challenges of year one. 

We would love you to post/email us your favourite memory of your first year at RAPS? We would love to hear what you think :) 

Remember these weekly challenges are for you to pick and choose what you feel able to do at home. There is no expectation that you must complete all the challenges. We would love to see some more of your home learning work and of course anything else you may be getting up to at home. If you get stuck with any of the challenges or are unsure of any of the work set please do not hesitate to contact us. 

Happy home learning for the final time! :)

Reminder of the home learning folder:

We have created lots of resources in the EYFS home learning folder located at the top of the blog (password:Viking). We have created a Term 6 folder for RWI, Maths and Topic. We have put lots of printable resources, power points and lots of other learning ideas that support the tasks below. For example, topic this week may say please see the under the sea powerpoint. This means that we do not need to add the individual links to the bottom of this post as it would be too much but we have added tonnes of things to support your learning. If you have trouble accessing this then please message us.

Books for Change

Parents and staff from Chilton Primary School and Ramsgate Arts Primary School have been inspired by Folkestone Books for Change fundraising campaign. 

We want to empower every child in our town to know that they can make a difference in the world and this journey starts through reading exciting books. 

We need our school libraries to stock a diverse and inclusive range of fiction and non-fiction, picture and fact books that include diverse characters of colour, children with disability, strong female protagonists and everyone that dares to be different. 

Children need to see themselves and others reflected in the books around them. This will help them to relate to and be inspired by role models from all communities and backgrounds. 

If you would like to contact us or to offer your support, you can do this through Facebook or via email ramsgatebooksforchange@gmail.com 

We believe in the power of our children and these books have the power to bring change into the classroom and into the world. 

Please donate what you can. Thank you for your donation no matter how big or small.
