Class Support
We now use SeeSaw , Purple Mash and Microsoft Teams to set work and keep in touch with the children and their families. The work is structured to follow the type of activities that would normally have taken place in school and which can, hopefully, be completed in a home environment, we're sure you'll have a great deal of fun completing the games and challenges!
Online Resources
There are also many fantastic and engaging resources available on the Internet and we have included some links to activities that you may wish to try at home. The list is not exhaustive and you may discover additional sites that you and your child really like, do make full use of these, we all learn in different ways and it is important to keep motivation high and stress levels low. A little and often is best and will let you try lots of different things together
