Another day, another useful website! Thank you to Mrs Nagra for finding this one:
If your child likes doing answer questions, then they will love this website. It has quizzes for Years 1 to 6 on a wide range of subjects and topics. Simple click on your relevant Key Stage – you don’t need to sign up! Enjoy!
Good morning, Cannon Park! For today’s challenge, I’d like you to build the tallest tower you can. You may wish to use Lego, Duplo, wooden blocks or even the blocks from Jenga – whatever you can find (with your grown-ups permission of course) to build your tower.
Would it help to plan our your tower?
Can you build a tower taller than your height?
How big is your tower? How could you measure the height?
How many blocks have you used?
How did you make sure it doesn’t collapse? Think about a strong base.
How many attempts did it take? What did you change each time?
You will definitely need our school values for this challenge, particularly teamwork if you’re working with a brother or sister! To extend your learning, research famous tall buildings around the world and create a factfile.
As always, send any photos to [email protected] if you are happy for them to go on the website.
Good luck!
For today’s activity, I’ve been inspired by one of my favourite book characters – Elmer! Elmer the Patchwork Elephant is a children’s picture book series by the British author David McKee. Elmer is often used to celebrate diversity so in a time when we can’t be in school, why not create your very own Elmer to bring us together!
Don’t forget, email your Elmers to [email protected]
Here is another rainbow, which was sent in recently:
Reading and listening to stories is so important for children. For as long as schools are closed, Amazon have made their Audible resources free. Children everywhere can instantly stream an incredible collection of stories, including titles across six different languages, that will help them continue dreaming, learning, and just being children. All stories are free to stream on your desktop, laptop, phone or tablet. Click on the image below:
Amazon have also made a number of Kindle Books available for free download. Click here for more information.
Mr Kelley has very kindly put together some resources to support our SEND children. We have updated our SEND page to include these resources and they can be found below:

Did you know that Cannon Park is full of superheroes? Thank you to those of you who have emailed in your creations based on today’s ‘create a superhero’ challenge. Here are just a few examples:
Being World Autism Awareness Week, we mustn’t forget that we are all special; we all have things which make us different, unique, special.
For today’s activity, think about what makes you special. What are you good at? What qualities do you have? Are you kind? Do you always think about others before yourself? Which of our school values do you really demonstrate every day? Create a cartoon character of yourself as a superhero. If you want to extend the activity, create a comic book about your new superhero. I have attached a comic book frame below for you to download and print off, or use as a guide if you use plain paper or your exercise book. Please email a photo of your superheroes to [email protected]

At home this week, maybe you could create an informative poster to raise awareness of Autism.
