Another week in and here is the learning for the week;
As always everything is optional and there is no pressure to complete or ‘hand in’ any of the work and I don’t want any families or children to be stressed at it. The work has been set for each activity across the week already and children can pick and choose when and what they complete.
For the children who like to hand in their work I have put a new announcement on the classroom where they post their work to slides across the week. Each child has been assigned their own set of slides and they can jazz them up however they please. My ones were a template for them. The stream is getting really busy with children uploading their work so this should keep it more manageable and allow me to see their work as a whole. So from tomorrow if you can encourage children to add their work to the slides I would really appreciate it. Just attach the photos as you would on the stream.
Google Meets have been going well, I have really enjoyed engaging with the children. I am going to trial little teaching sessions this week and see how they go. I have set the children a communication task as well, as I am aware some children have not been communicating with many from the class and I think it is very important that they keep this up. There is all different ways they can communicate; Google Meets, Hangouts, Facetime, Roblox?? Fortnite?? I don’t really know much about those sides of things but I would love for them to be keeping in touch as much as possible.
I think that is it from me for now, I hope you are all safe and well.
