Part 3: Work Expectations.
At Meadlands, we expect the children to take great pride and care with all their written work. At the start of the year, a maths lesson is dedicated to the reminding the children how to set out their math's work, so that the layout is consistent across the year group. Our expectations around layout is:
1. All maths work completed in pencil, or purple pen for responding to marking or completing reasoning and problem solving work.
2. A digit per maths square – we say to the children “one digit one square” to remind them.
3. Any written work in their maths book e.g. learning challenge or word problems should be as neat as they would write in any other book.
Part 4: Blended Learning
If your child is absent but waiting for a coronavirus test result to return to school or having to self isolate due to symptomatic household members, then they can access school work on their class page right here! Work will be uploaded every Monday morning. Children are expected to follow the timetable and complete the lessons in their Meadlands-at-Home books, returning these to their class teacher, once they are able to return to school.
If the class or school is having to isolate we will be in touch with you regarding how to access the Google Classroom learning.
For more information, please refer to our Blended Learning Policy.
Parents & carers, if your child is isolating and completing work from home, the following websites can supplement the work we have provided. These are easy to access and navigate and you will find video lessons and video clips which support the learning that the teachers have provided:
Oak National Academy provides video lessons for reception up to Year 6 https://www.thenational.academy/
BBC Bitesize provides primary resources for children https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize
