There are a number of ways to support your child's learning at home over the coming weeks. As a school we value the importance of reading so one way is by sharing books and reading together to promote a love of books. Below are the learning expectations for each year group in Reading (under the heading VIPERS), Writing, Maths and Phonics in line with the National Curriculum. This should give you additional direction, along with the year group page, about what your child has been learning and what they would be going on to learn.
Please follow us on Twitter for regular updates and activities to keep you busy. The teachers have been tweeting lots of links to websites and different challenges to complete. Feel free to tweet a response - the teachers would love to hear from you!
Websites and free resources
A number of online teaching aids and resource websites are allowing free access for all teachers, parents and pupils for a short time.
Twinkl are offering a one month membership free of charge for all parents. Setting this up is really easy to do - go to www.twinkl.co.uk/offer and enter the code UKTWINKLHELPS.
Rising Stars
We now have access the Rising Stars E-Library which provides a wealth of online books and resources for you to access at home. Individual accounts have been created for pupils and we shared these before Friday 20th March. Miss Gill has also created generic year group accounts for children who have not received access (please see below). There's also user guides for parents and pupils.
