Times table practise is essential for all children from Year 1 to Year 6 (and beyond!).  At Hythe we subscribe to Times Table Rockstars which can be found here. There is also an 'add-on' within this site called 'Numbots' which helps children to become more fluent with their general number facts.

There are lots of other great websites available to support pupils who are working remotely.  Here are some of them...

The Oak Academy Trust have lots of great resources to support learning remotely.  The resources are organised into age groups to make them easier to find. Look at the topics being covered in each of our phases and click on the highlighted word to take you to those resources...

Year R: Our Year R children are learning all about animals and how to care for them.  They are reading stories about animals and learning about wildlife in our local area.  If you are able to, why not head into the New Forest for a wildlife spotting walk?! If the spring showers are too much for outdoor adventures then here are some lovely stories that reinforce the message of looking after animals: Look after us by Rod Campbell or I am a bunny by Ole Risom and Richard Scarry. You could also watch the video about Tim at the Minstead Trust, who is well-known for how caring he is towards the animals - talk about what he is doing to help look after the animals.

Years 1 and 2: This half-term, Years 1 and 2 are learning all about the seasons.  There's lots of information and video clips about seasons if you click here on BBC Bitesize and there's a great interactive game to try out too - just click here to have a go!

In maths, years 1 and 2 are learning all about measures.  There's a lot to learn and some helpful links here. For those year 2 pupils who are ready to read scales, there's some good learning support to be found here.

Years 3 and 4: This half-term, Years 3 and 4 are learning all about their local area, they'll not only be visiting Hythe but mapping out journeys and comparing other places to Hythe.  If you have access, why not zoom in on Google Maps to find a new route from your house to another place in the local area (the park, school, a friend's house etc).  Have a go at writing some directions for someone else to try and follow!

In Art, the children will be finding out all about Andy Warhole and having a go at creating artwork in the same style.  There's a step-by-step video here that children can follow to create a doughnut picture in the style of Andy Warhol (it doesn't have to be paint, coloured pencils or chalks would work too!).

Years 5 and 6: Year 5 and 6 pupils are learning all about the Mayan people. BBC Bitesize have a whole host of videos and information for pupils to research and find out more that they can share with their class.  Just click here.

They're also learning all about food in French, including how to order it. There's some helpful practice information here (including pronunciation buttons!).
