Welcome back. As mentioned before half term, with Reception, Year 1 and Year 6 returning to school, we have needed to change the home activity setup slightly. The main difference is that maths, English and a few foundation subjects will be given weekly. You can choose how best to do these throughout the week. This week’s maths is not going to be a full week as we’d already done the first 2 lessons last week; however, it would be good to recap what you did before half term.
I have also gathered together some free websites (some do require you to sign up, but all are free) on a range of different subjects. You can use these as extra to the weekly task as you wish.
With myself teaching in school throughout the day, it does mean unfortunately I will not be able to respond to emails and questions. However, Mrs Heath has kindly offered to reply to anything you may send in. If you do have any questions, you can continue to send your emails to class4@brownclee.shropshire.sch.uk.
