Microsoft Teams- Password and Logins
Your child's Microsoft Teams login and password is in the front of their reading record. We will be using Teams if our bubble closes so we would like parents to help their child to log on and access learning. See home-learning plan. Please see Teams guide documents below to familiarise yourselves with the platform.
You also now have logins for Purple Mash, TTRockstars and Spelling Shed - in the reading record. For the rest of this half term, please allow your child to explore these programs as we may have already set activities for them to complete, or will do so in the future.

Year 4 have thoroughly enjoyed using their knowledge of Ancient Greece to create their own amphoras. The children designed their Greek amphoras, thinking about colour and shape. They then painted their designs and allowed them to dry before carefully etching them. Take a look at our fantastic amphoras below...
