Y4- Frog Class
Hello everyone!
Happy New Year to one and all. Well, what a strange time it is at the moment! It was lovely being back and seeing a lot of you the first few days back, however what a shame it is, as we head into another lockdown.
As you may know, all our Home Learning will take place on Google Drive. You can log into the Frog's Drive by typing 'Google Drive: Sign-in' and clicking on the first link. The email and password are on the letter sent out on Tuesday, however, if you need them, feel free to email me. Within the Drive, you will find all your learning for the week alongside videos to support some of the learning. SPAG, English and Maths are broken down into daily lessons, while you have a choice of afternoon (curriculum) lessons.
Zoom Meetings will be held on Monday, Wednesday and Fridays at 10am. Look out for the login details on the Google Drive.
As always, we are here if you need anything. If you have any questions, feel free to email me, I will be available between 9:00am to 3:15pm daily to answer any questions and concerns.
We all miss you, please stay safe and look after yourselves and others in your family. We look forward to seeing you all again, once this is all over.
Best wishes,
Mr Risby
