White Rose Maths Challenges – This is the last week that White Rose are releasing their worksheets for free on their website. From next week, it will just be their videos for free. However, please see below for info on their work with BBC Bitesize.
If you are still working through the weeks that is absolutely fine – they are keeping all five weeks of work up there so keep working through them.
White Rose are now due to start working with BBC Bitesize this week. I will keep an eye on this and post links to the White Rose work once it has gone live. Please see these links for more information:

PSHE – Mental Health
It is really important that you are ensuring that you look after your mental health in this challenging period. Particularly as we are less able to get outside and into nature, or spend time with our friends.
Remember to take care of your mental health. We’ve kept the old activities, but new activities are at the top:
- Worry Coping Cards
- May-Calendar – we love this! A fun challenge a day for May, focussed on positivity and mental health
- worry monster colouring
- The Little Elf who missed his Birthday Party
- gratitude-journal-three-good-things
- Nosy Crow’s Coronavirus book

Don’t forget to look back at your self-care cloud too!

She would love to see photographs of your projects. If your grown ups would like to, they can send them to her via the @makersanddoersstudio Instagram page

How did you get on with lesson 1, on the outbreak of war? This week’s lesson moves on to evacuation.
Please follow the PowerPoint for the knowledge needed for this lesson. It will also prompt you to complete the activities as you go along.
Activities:
- Suitcase activity – discuss the questions at home with an adult or sibling
- Evacuee letter – Your challenge is to write a letter in role as an evacuee from World War II. Use your responses to the thinking hat questions and the prompts on the Evacuee Letter Activity Sheet to help you.
- Hot seat questions – drama time! Try to imagine that you are an evacuee. Answer the questions from the sheet. I think that there are many parallels with our current situation and that of an evacuee, but also many clear differences. What do you think?
