Happy Monday!
We hope you had a lovely weekend and managed to get out for some exercise when it wasn't raining. My son Joseph went for a very long, windy walk on Saturday, in Edale. Edale is near a place called Castleton. Why don't you have a look on the internet to see what it looks like. He came back very wet but he felt very happy because he had managed to walk and get some exercise. This weeks learning will be on Padlet . You will need to follow this link to see it, every day.

Daily challenges
maths- The focus is going to be on money and using it to pay for items.
phonics-reading and writing words that contain split digraphs
Can we remind you to have a go at the weekly challenges too! It would be lovely to see that you have read and practised writing your spellings, listened to how to write instructions and had a go at writing your own instructions to make a lion. We have left them on for an extra week so you can have a go at some of them.
Thankyou

Hello Ravensbury wildlife lovers,
The end of another week and it’s going to be a little cooler today. It was so hot yesterday again! I think the ducks will be happy with the rain later.
Today’s challenge is to use your ears as the sun sets tonight. Listen for the wildlife concert that is played in your back garden every evening. You could record it and email the concert to me.
Have a wonderful, sunny and safe Thursday.

Hello everybody,
It’s Thursday already! It was so hot yesterday and it looks like it’s going to be another scorcher today so make sure you wear a hat and put your sun cream on when you’re out in the wild today.
Today’s challenge is to make an accessory out of flowers. I used to love to make daisy chains when I was a little girl. Can you make something to add to your outfit or to give to someone you love?
Have a wonderful, sunny and safe Thursday.

Hello Everyone!
We hope you have enjoyed your weekend and managed to play out in the sunshine! I went for a healthy walk on Saturday. I went to Sale Water Park and fed the ducks and the geese. On Sunday, I went to visit my dad at his allotment. I stood far away from him and wished him a Happy Father's Day. I bought him some cup a soups and chocolate milkshake. He drunk all the chocolate milkshake whilst I was there. He was very pleased to see me and very shocked. We stayed safe and didn't stand close to each other, we just talked. We hope you had some nice talking time with your families too!
We hope you are ready for some new learning. We will continue to update the daily challenges and have updated the weekly challenges, ready for learning this week. Let's see how many weekly challenges you can complete this week. We are going to celebrating children who are completing weekly reading and spelling challenges this week.
All the learning this week will be on Padlet so make sure you copy and save this link and use it everyday.

Hello Wildlife Wardens of Ravensbury!
We’ve reached the end of another week getting out in the wild. We have such a lot of beauty in our world. Remember that when you see something in the wild.
Today’s challenge is to draw a wildflower. My sister-in-law and brother-in-law have lived in lots of amazing places around the world. Some of the photos at the bottom are from places as far away as Saudi Arabia and some are from my local woods. Can you find a wildflower and draw it?
Have a fun filled day

Yesterday I discovered that a squirrel’s front teeth never stop growing. Squirrels must gnaw to keep their teeth at the right length. What did you find out?
I also hear this beautiful birdsong every night at tea time. Does anyone know what bird is singing?
