Diversity:
Where Everyone Belongs
At Djanogly Sherwood we know that things are challenging and different right now we wanted to help by sharing some good resources. Here is a video you could watch and share with your children explaining how to talk to children about race and diversity. We will also be sharing lessons on Seesaw through some great books about diversity. We hope that this helps. Remember our strapline at Sherwood is ‘Where everyone belongs’.

Hello everyone,
We are continuing to phone up families to make sure you are all okay and if anyone needs any support with home learning. Don't forget we have home learning packs that can be sent home, if you aren't able to access the website or Seesaw.
This week, we are focusing on; online safety. We believe now we are using the internet more than ever, children should know the importance of staying safe online!
Here is a link for your child to visit, to play a fun game about online safety.

Miss a Topic? Not to worry, here are some of the suggestions we made in the previous weeks of home learning:
Summer 2
English
This term we are looking at the gaps that we have yet to teach in school. We would suggest looking at the topics listed below. These will be topics the children may have some knowledge on before we left, or from year 2 but these areas will need to be developed.
We encourage you to read any books you have at home or ones that you can access online. There are suggestions below for online reading...
Reading skills we need to strengthen:
Have a look at the VIPERS poster below. This will help you understand what skills the children need when reading in KS2.
Maths
In Maths we are looking at the topics we have not covered yet in school:
