Remote Learning Provision Guide for Parents Jan 2021
Pupils In EYFS and KS1:
At this age children will get little of value out of doing remote learning activities alone and we would ask parents and carers to support children with any activities you ask them to complete.
- Regular reading to develop fluency and confidence - at least daily 5-20mins depending on age and reading fluency.
- High frequency vocabulary or sight words to learn
- Phonics games
- Recall of number facts
- Practice of basic maths operations or simple problem-solving
- Practical activities to do at home such as involving children with, counting, role play, measuring etc.
- Handwriting practice activities
- Opportunities for children to engage in independent research or project type activities related to current topics. Current topics can be found on the school website
Pupils In KS2:
Many of the aspects outlined in KS1 continue to be relevant into KS2 although children should be able to access more aspects independently. Parental involvement is still encouraged. For example often children may be able to read a book independently but their comprehension can be more effectively developed if they have the opportunity to discuss what they have read with a supportive adult. In addition to the above children in KS2 may be offered activities such as:
- Independent research related to topics being studied, see website for current topics
- Daily opportunities to read a range of appropriate texts, as available for 20-40 mins depending on age and reading fluency
- Key word and vocabulary practice including spelling
- Recall of times tables, number facts and basic calculation
- Options to present learning in a mode of their choice eg: a powerpoint presentation, play or piece of artwork
- Revision of maths concepts covered
- Handwriting practice activities
