Hello Year 1! Nearly there 🙂
Here are your tasks for today:

I’ve posted some photos of some the things we did before lockdown. I miss those days and can’t wait to have everyone back in school. I want you to have a look at them and talk about them with someone in your house.
Then, click on this sheet and write about your favourite memories. You can also write about other things that you can remember even if there isn’t a picture of it.

Morning, everyone!
Today, we’re carrying on with your Dragon’s Den task.
The first part is market research. You need to have a discussion with someone else about your product design. Speak to someone face to face, call someone on the phone or chat over video call. You might ask the following questions or add your own.
- What do you think to the product’s look?
- What would you improve?
- What are the best features?
- Can any be improved?
- Do you think the price is reasonable?
- Would you buy this product?
- What are the overall strengths?
- What are overall areas to improve?
The more people you ask, the better your product will be.
The second part of today’s task is computing.
After taking on board feedback and making any necessary changes, you need to create a sales pitch to present to the Dragons tomorrow. You could do this on multiple posters, on PowerPoint or KeyNote. You might need to do some online research so make sure you’re making safe choices! You should present:
- the best features
- why your product is better than your rivals
- who it’s aimed at
- your market research results
- what it’s made of and why
- how much it would cost
- why you decided to make this product
Your presentation should last 5-10 minutes so you could prepare some flash cards with your speech on it, too.
As always, we’d love to see your inventions and products! Send us an email and we might even want to buy one!

Happy Wednesday, Y6!
It’s nearly time to say goodbye to Moortown forever.
I was originally going to put a link for a farewell video I’ve made on the website tonight but I think I’ll save it so that we can watch it as a class together for the first time on Thursday. So the new “release date” will be this Thursday evening at 7pm instead. Thanks for understanding!
Today’s task is a little bit different – the first part of a three day series of Dragon’s Den!
There are several stages that you need to go through covering a wide range of subjects and skills.
The first stage is Design and Technology.
You need to design a product. It can be anything – hover boots, a chair, jewellery, headphones… whatever you like! There are lots of sheets online that can help you structure this design process if you need one. Think about the following questions:
- What is your product for?
- Does it solve a problem?
- Who is it aimed at?
- What are its features?
- What is it made of?
- What size is it?
Send in an email of your design.

Now, answer the questions.
Task 2
Now, it’s your turn to be a butterfly. Soon, you will be spreading your wings and moving from Year 2 to Year 3.
Who is this man?
Yes, it’s Mr Wain! He is going to be your new class teacher. If you look on our Class News page, you will see a short video he has made for you all.

Hello Year 2 children and their families. It is my last home learning post for you all today so I wanted to say thank you to your adults for all your support as you have taken over our role for the last fourteen weeks! We have missed the class very much and we are sorry the year has come to an end before we could all be back at school together.
We hope you have a safe and relaxing summer holiday and we shall see you all when you return to school as the new Year 3 class. We know Mr Wain will have a great year with such a fantastic class.
So, here we go with the learning for you for today.

Well, they have been well cared for at home and the time has come to harvest the potatoes.
1.Read this text to see how the potatoes were harvested.
2.Watch this video to show how the potato farmer harvests their potatoes and gets them ready for the supermarket.
