Home Learning

Hi Boys and Girls, we hope you are all safe and well. I know you can't wait to get back to school. Here is some work for you to keep your minds active while you are at home. Try to do as much of this work as you can on your own.

Your parents are very busy at the moment so only ask for help if/when it suits them. You do not have to do all of this work, just try your best to do as much as you can. 

We have put links to lot of games below. If you cannot click directly on the link, you can copy the link and paste it into your browser. 

You will find more work and activities on the Homepage.

We look forward to seeing you again soon. 

If you'd like to email us your work you can do this at

English

5th class English group:
Now that you all hopefully have all your books back, you can pick up where we left off with your Spellbound books and write four sentences using the four spellings each day. Remember to try and make your sentences more exciting by using adjectives and adverbs!  

4th class English group:
Now you have your books back you can continue writing your four sentences each day using your spellings in the book. Try to lengthen your sentences by adding an adjective before a noun (for example, the wonderful library). Don't forget your capital letters and your full stops!
