Zoom Calls!
Hello Y4 Parents / Carers!
I would love it if your home learners could join me for a Zoom call this week. We’ll talk about lockdown, home learning and compare lockdown hairstyles!
There will be two sessions:
Wednesday 24th June @ 10am
Thursday 25th June @ 10am
Email me at paulwilks@spherefederation.org to let me know which one you would like to join and let me know the name that will appear in the Zoom call – I won’t allow anyone into the meeting if I’m not expecting them. Ideally, the name would be the child’s first and last name, but it can be your name. (And please make sure the name is appropriate.)
I’ll limit numbers to the meetings to about 12 children so that we all get a chance to talk. The sessions will last approximately 30 minutes. I’ll ask a couple of questions which will include questions related to home learning:
- What home learning have you felt most proud of?
- What learning have you made most progress with at home?
- What sort of learning routine are you in?
It would be great if your child has thought about these so they’re able to answer a question like that.
Hope to see you there!
Mr W

Reading – LO: give a personal point of view
We would love to know what book you are reading at the minute! With that being said, your task today is to give a personal point of view about the book you are currently reading.
We would like you to tell us:
- what the book is about
- what has happened so far
- your opinion of the book and why you have this opinion
- is it comparable to any other books you’ve read/know about
When describing your opinion about the book, it’s really important that you give reasons for your point of view, too!
When giving your reasons, remember to use words such as: additionally, furthermore, moreover etc when making your points!
Good luck!
