PHSE work: Zones of Regulation
Your afternoon work is at the beginning of the day today - and throughout. We would like you to think carefully about the Zones of Regulation today and how you might move from zone to zone throughout the day.
Make a chart, or print out the one below and fill it in for the day. How does your mood change throughout the day?
It will be interesting to see how your feelings change - keep this, in the weeks to come, we will refer back to it.
English: GPS - Zoom input at 9:30am
Today, we are going to try something a little different - a Kahoot quiz. Please look out for the email with instructions for what you need to do this. If you are at home, please try to have an additional device with you to logon to answer the questions.
On the additional device, you will need to go to the website https://kahoot.it/
Once there, you can enter in the pin number that we will give to you on the Zoom call.
What is Kahoot?
It is a way of playing quizzes together - have a look.
This is a guide for teachers, but it explains the loginning for players at around the halfway point.
Below, you can find the next CGP test. There is a question about one of our very favourite punctuation marks - the semi colon ; Recap on these by watching the videos just below. Please note that, as the first video is from an American source, it refers to 'full stops' as 'periods'.
Here are the answers to the test below:
Reading Targets
It is Friday, so it is Reading Target Day! If you are learning from home, please go to the Google Classroom and answer the question about where you are up to with your Reading Target. I will then reply with your brand new target. Hopefully this will work better than trying over Zoom!
Question: where are you up to with your Reading Target?
