Home School Learning Pack for Week Beginning 06.07.20

Dear Purple Class,

Hello!

I hope that you are well and happy! Even though we’re not all together, It is important you realise what a fantastic a job you are doing,

staying at home, keeping safe and getting on with your learning. Remember to follow the pack and keep reading instructions carefully, so that

you know what to do and where to find everything you need.

I have been keeping busy planning lots of lovely activities for you. I hope you are enjoying the

lovely Art activities – I know Art is a big favourite for most of you!

I really miss seeing you each day and hope that you are keeping busy and active. Don’t forget to

do some exercise every day – you can exercise any way you like but it is important to get your

heart rate pumping and to feel a little out of breath.

I would love to be seeing you all again this week but instead, here are some more activities to

keep you busy! We hope that you enjoy doing them.

Missing you. Look after yourselves!

Mrs Leafe!
