Hi Year 4,

Here is your remote learning for this week if you are isolating - remember, you don't have to complete any work at home if you feel poorly! Make sure your grown ups let the school office know if you are isolating. Mrs Large will check in with them via e-mail as soon as possible to check you are all ok, and to help you with your remote learning if needs be.

You can complete your learning on paper (to either take into school when you return, or to photograph and upload onto BGfL/Teams), or you can use a blank BGfL document.

Also, some of this week’s remote learning is the same as last week’s - but there is plenty there! If you started isolating last week, please just continue from where you left off.

English

Please complete one lesson a day from this series of lessons based on explanatory texts. Similar to non-chronological reports, the purpose of an explanation text is to inform the reader:

Computing

Please scroll down to the video on this link: https://www.childnet.com/resources/video-lessons/the-s-rule  

It is the first video in this series about the SMART rules for staying safe online – the ‘S’ rule. Watch the video and pause at the questions to see if you can answer them. Then show us what you’ve learned (make poster, write an information text, show your understanding via a cartoon... up to you!) You can always carry on and do the same for the other rules if you like!

Remember, there are lots more great remote learning resources on the school website here: https://www.st-johns-pri.bham.sch.uk/whole-school-online-resources/
