KS2 - Willows Class Contingency Work
Willows Class work is set daily and available via Teams. This work is a blend of Live Sessions and pre-recorded videos. For more details please check your child's Teams account.
Willows' live sessions with Mrs Crump and Mrs Procter are scheduled to take place, via Teams, every Monday at 11:15 and every Thursday at 11:15. Pupils from both Yr.3 and Yr.4 are welcome and invited to attend both sessions.
If your child has not yet had a chance to do use Teams, please encourage them. If you are having trouble with accessing Teams or have forgotten the password, please just email Admin for us to resolve. The teachers are using Teams to set and monitor work; it will also be through Teams that children can access some live sessions/class meetings, and are signposted to pre-recorded lessons. Children can post their completed work on Teams if you would like, on the general post or on the assignments themselves there is a return link there which is private. For additional privacy it can also be emailed to Admin who will forward it on to the teacher.
Live sessions will be recorded and made available afterwards via Teams, as will all of our interactions (to support Safeguarding) since we know that not all children will be able to access at these times. No part of any live lessons should be captured or shared by pupils through recording or screenshots. May I also emphasise that it is important that only the class pupil should participate in any live sessions. It is not appropriate for a parent/carer, sibling or other person to interrupt or seek to participate in lessons.
