NEW YEAR 6 EMAIL ADDRESSES FOR ALL CHILDREN! 

 

To make it easier for you to submit your work to us, every child in Year 5 and Year 6 has been given a brand new email address! This means that children can submit their own work without having to use a grown-up's email address.

 

You can use this email address to send an email to:

• yr6@henleygreen.coventry.sch.uk (if you are in Year 6)

You will not be able to email anybody else (the accounts are set up so that contacting any other email addresses is not possible. This is to keep the children safe online).

 

Your personal email address and password will be given to you by the school ( we will email/ text/ phone). You must NOT share this password with anybody, including your friends or your brothers and sisters.

Watch the Loom video to find out how to access your email address, or follow the steps in the document which is attached.

If you are having trouble setting up your email address, please email your year group email address for support, or ask your teacher on the phone when they call you this week.

We wanted to make it really clear for you what work you need to send in for us to look at and mark. Some of the smaller tasks you can make notes or jottings of or the answers are given to you on the videos so you do not need to send these in. On the timetable above we have added a camera icon  to support you in knowing what work you need to send in. Below is a timetable for the week of the work we would definitely like to see. Please send this into the Year 6 email address at yr6@henleygreen.coventry.sch.uk

As a family, please choose one 'Well-being Wednesday activity' from the class home learning pages for all of the children in your household to participate in.

You are not your Thoughts 

Watch the video below and then on scraps of paper write down any negative thoughts you have about yourself or generally. Then to help get rid of those thoughts, screw them up and throw them away. You don't need to hang onto those negative thoughts.

Put these up in your bedroom or somewhere you can look at these often to remind yourself of your good qualities.
