Assembly

Assembly

Today’s assembly is from NSPCC. It is hosted by Ant and Dec and is about supporting children with their worries, giving them trusted adults to talk to and also introducing them to Childline as an additional option for support. Trusted adults may direct the children to Childline to give them an extra adult to speak to, or it may be that there is something the child feels they cannot tell anyone else, for whatever reason.

The first link is a short introduction from me, then the second link takes you to the YouTube video. There is advice on how to access the YouTube video in the comments section of the introduction video.

Dance

Below is a link to the Black Country Dance Hub who are choreographing dances in weekly blocks.

From the website:

‘We’re offering a weekly on-line dance programme for children in school and at home. The project offers an original piece of choreography shared over four weekly sessions, which can be learnt at a time and location to suit you and your children. And to boot your children can be filmed and form part of a dance film at the end of the project, should they wish, but don’t worry if they don’t, it is optional. We’re working with 2 professional dance artists to choreograph the dance piece so that it is suitable for different ages.’

In this week’s assembly we talk about staying healthy and one of the ways we discuss is through Joe Wicks, the Body Coach. Have a look at his ‘PE with Joe’ sessions, released 9am every weekday (but they’re all available on demand on his YouTube channel). Many children from our school are already doing this – it could be a great way to begin your day. Remember the importance of routine.

Good morning everyone

Maths quizzes – In order for Miss O’Brien and I to see what maths questions you understand and which ones you find difficult; we have made a short online quiz for your child to complete. The quiz contains five multiple choice questions that should be answered independently (please don’t help your child with these). Once the quiz is complete, we will then be able to see which questions each child struggled with (if any). We will then address any common misconceptions in a short video clip that will be posted onto Class Story by Monday. The quizzes will take place weekly and will be posted every Thursday. We will then post a reminder to complete this on Friday before uploading the misconception video. The links to the quizzes are below.
