An Example Timetable!
Please find below an example timetable for you to use at home. I will edit it each week with the activities that I have set for the children. I would like to point out that this is not prescriptive it is an example, you know your children, you know what is best for your children if you feel they need to do things a different way around then do it your way :-) In school on a real day if I can see that the children need to have a break then that is what we do. We want you to enjoy this time with your children too!

Handwriting
This week we are looking at the one armed robot letters. You don't have your handwriting books but thats okay you need to imagine a line half way down. Parents might want to use a highlighter for the first few times to show them half way up. You do not need to print the sheet just write the letter in your books. Rewatch the video until you see how each letter is formed. The pencil does not leave the paper until the end. Remember to start each handwriting lesson with a fine motor activity like dough disco or threading pasta, then make sure you are sat correctly and holding your pencil correctly. Watch the video and then write it in your books. There are 3 videos for each session.
