Morning Message

“Morning everyone! Welcome to the first day of your project! I would suggest that you do your reading, maths and the 2 little literacy sessions first with movement breaks between them. You will then have the rest of the day to focus on your oceans project! One of Rex's favourite places is the Shedd aquarium in Chicago. Here is a link to watch the fish live by webcam so you can imagine you are underwater!

You should also use your time to get outside, be active and spend time doing things that you enjoy.

You will see there are 3 short videos for wellbeing I would strongly recommend you watch them as they made me really smile and will also give you ideas for things to do to help you feel happy.

The information about the motivational message is also still in the timetable in case you didn’t have a chance yesterday or need to finish it off. Send me a photo by the end of Friday and I will forward it on to Mr Cook to include in the music video.

Have a great day, have lots of fun!"

KS2 challenge from Mr Cook - Motivational Message

The current lockdown has been a difficult time for everyone. So, to help in a small way and to put a smile on your faces we thought that it would be nice to put together a video for all the children at Seal Primary school For this video, we want every child in KS2 to create a motivational poster (I have attached some examples below). These posters should send messages of support, hope and they can wish everyone well. Once we have received all the messages we will put them into a music video.

We would like you to take your time over your posters and to show great pride in your work. Make your posters bold and colourful and you can use an art media of your choice, from pencil to paint to collage. We would recommend that you first plan your ideas before eventually creating your final piece of work.

IMPORTANT: When taking a picture of your work you must check that the image is clear and that we can read your message. Please do not show a photographic image of yourself in the picture. If you do, we will not be able to use your artwork.
