Home learning

Dear parents/carers,

Before the school closure we sent home your child’s e-learning passwords so you could access online resources to support your child's learning.  A website called Twinkl, have provided free access to their resources should you require further activities. In order to access this you need to create a new account and enter the code CVDTWINKLHELPS.

Below you will see I have included a suggested daily timetable for you and your child. Teachers are setting work for the children via our new learning platform Class Dojo. Children need to log in to this platform to be instructed to do work by their teacher.  Please visit the newsletter section of the website for details of the letter that was sent out via Parentmail regarding the changes. You can watch the tutorial below for details of how to log in to Class Dojo. All families need to collect their login code from the school office. 

Key additional resources are also included under the relevant headings below. A longer term learning pack is also found below should you need to use it, along with practical ideas and guidance. 

Thank you for your continued support,

Jess Cameron

Head of School

Each teacher has uploaded resources to help the children learn remotely. Please log in to the Class Dojo App or website in order to be instructed to work by the class teacher. Guidance on the recent changes to home learning  can be found in the newletter section of the website (click the link below).  A video tutorial of how to log in is posted below for you to watch once you have collected your login details from the school office.

During school closure please use the passwords we sent home with your child. You can access online resources to support your child's learning.  Please keep these in a safe place - contact the school office if you do not have these.

We have provided passwords for:

• Bugclub - electronic books and comprehension set by class teachers
• Times Table Rockstars - competitive times table activities
• LGFL - a range of resources
• Espresso - a range of resources and activities
• Twinkl - for parents. For addition resources you may wish to download yourself. Create a new user account and use the code CVDTWINKLHELPS

Message from Adam (PE Leader)

In these coming weeks it’s very important to keep our bodies healthy.

There are many videos online to help us do this.

You could make a chart to record your daily exercise! We should all aim to do about 30 minutes a day to stay healthy.

Each week you could challenge yourself to try and do slightly more than the week before!

CHALLENGE

Can you do this every day for a week?  Once at 9am? Once at 12pm? Once at 3pm?

• 10 Star Jumps
• 10 squats
• 10 Burpees 
• 10 Frog jumps
• 10 second plank
• 1 minute - running on the spot

Youtube has a wealth of fun videos with short workouts to help us keep active while in our homes. They are fun for both adults and children alike.

Please always check with an adult and be supervised when watching things on Youtube.
