Home Learning (Temporary)

Translate

Hello!

This will be our online learning zone should we need to be off school for a little while.

I will continue to post useful and interesting links when I come across them.

The following are ongoing tasks that can be done as and when:

Reading

Times Table Practice (Times Table Rockstars)

Spelling Practice (Spelling Shed or 'speedy spellings' lists)

On this page, I will post a series of home learning tasks which you may like to engage in with your child. I understand that given the current situation, these may not always be possible. I aim to post work both on this page, as well as on 'Google Classroom'. The work will aim to allow the children to keep on practising skills they have learnt so far in Year 5, as well as give further learning opportunities for curriculum areas that we were due to cover during this period of time away from school. I will aim to give a variety of daily Maths and English tasks, as well as topic based learning tasks.

Look after yourselves and each other.

SOME USEFUL RESOURCES FOR HOME

Updated 22^nd April

During the current school closures, we will continue to inform you of different websites and resources that you can use at home for home-learning, online activities or getting some daily exercise.

More and more subscription-based services are being offered free-of-charge at this time and we will continue to tell you about these as we hear about them, but please pay careful attention to the terms and conditions of these sites, especially as their free period comes to an end.

Please note that this is a shared list of resources for children across our school and therefore not all resources will be appropriate for all ages.
