Writing
Today’s writing task is to come up with a list of the activities which have been set during this time that you have enjoyed doing most. You could also include some suggestions of activities that you would like to do more or any activities that we haven’t done which you think everyone else might enjoying doing.
Geography
Your task in Geography is to label as many settlements (e.g. Shrewsbury, Ditton Priors etc) on this map of Shropshire.
This map is missing Telford and Wrekin – if you wish to include them as part of Shropshire, feel free to do so. Telford and Wrekin are a separate council to Shropshire; however, it is still in the ceremonial county of Shropshire.
