Bacup Holy Trinity Stacksteads C.E. Primary School

Welcome to 5M!

Hello to everyone at home!

Welcome to our new online classroom!

This is a new way of learning for all of us but I know you'll all do really well. Some things will stay the same:

• rule off and write the date for each new piece of work in your exercise book
• neat handwriting
• have a go at everything and do your best

Every day on this page you will find:

• 5 a day
• Literacy
• Reading (on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays)
• Maths
• Topic
• PE (on Mondays and Thursdays) 

You should also spend some time each day reading, either a physical book or on Bug Club (activelearnprimary.co.uk), and do some TT Rock Stars (https://play.ttrockstars.com/).

I'll be putting answers to the questions from the previous day on here too (scroll down). 

Remember that you can use the Guestbook below to let me know how you're getting on, if you have any questions or just want to say hi! Click on the Comments button to see what everyone is saying.

Why don't you ask a parent or carer to take a photo of your work and email it to myself and Mrs Barnes to see? Ask them to send it to: y5@stacksteads.lancs.sch.uk

Summer Holidays

Well done for making it to the end of a very strange school year. Don't forget all the websites below that you can have a look at during the holidays. You can also still get on Bug Club and Times Table Rock Stars. Have a great summer and I will see you in September!

Look at the great work you've been doing that's been sent in by your parents! Keep it coming!

Dear Parents and Carers 

I realise that this way of working is new to you too! Please don't feel under any pressure to become a full time tutor to your children! There may be things that your child finds difficult. That's OK, I just want them to have a go and keep their brains active. The main priority is your child's wellbeing.

The work set should take between 1 hour 30 mins and 2 hours each day and should be completed at your child's own pace. The answers for the previous day will be put on this page so that your child can mark their own work. 

There are some useful websites for home learning further down this page and also here.

If you have any questions about the work set, myself and  Mrs Barnes can be contacted by email: y5@stacksteads.lancs.sch.uk You can also use the Guestbook below to keep in touch. Please encourage your child to use the Guestbook too. The email address is only for parents and carers to use please.

Thank you

Mr Morris
