Home Learning
- This will be updated by 9:00am each Friday morning with tasks for the week. These will be differentiated so that all children can access the learning at an appropriate level. Some subjects have levelled tasks. Children may choose the level which best meets their needs and work through the tasks and levels to increase the challenge and expand their knowledge. A child may choose to start on level 3 and work through to level 5, or start on 1 and work to 4- the choice is theirs!
- I will be accessible via DOJO for parental queries about the work set.
- Weekly activities will include: Mathletics (specifically assigned tasks); Readiwriter tasks; a different foundation subject focus each week (with some links to ‘writing’); book review (any format).
- All children are encouraged to learn a new skill whilst off and will be asked to demonstrate this on our return and can "vlog" their journey on DOJO
- Children should also be encouraged to study for a DREAM award which they will then complete on our return.
- Work must be uploaded to DOJO or emailed to class teacher by 4:30 pm each Thursday.
- Children will be awarded DOJO points for work completed.
Please ensure children are completing work to the same expectation required in school- particularly handwriting and full answers to questions. Thank You
Home Learning Resources From 1st June 2020
As outlined in our School plan, from 1st of June our home learning is going to look a little different. Below you will find an array of useful links to keep your child educated from home until they return to school.
