Hello everyone,

We hope you are keeping safe, healthy and happy! We will be updating the Distance Learning folder on a weekly basis to set specific teaching activities for you to complete at home. We will be setting work that is based on what the children would have been learning at school and hope you will find it useful! We have some recommendations that you might find helpful listed below.

Reading

Please continue to read to your child everyday and listen to them read as much as possible. Thankfully, lots of websites are offering free subscriptions during this time so please make use of them. We would recommend https://home.oxfordowl.co.uk/school-closure-resources/ . Here you will find a range of activities and resources. Please also sign up for https://www.getepic.com/ as we will be setting some tasks on this website.

Read Write Inc Phonics

Read Write Inc Phonics have announced that they will be running free live lessons via YouTube and Facebook in response to school closures. These are streamed live and will only be available at the times below:

Set 1 Speed Sounds at 9.30am and again at 12.30 pm

Set 2 Speed Sounds at 10.00am and again at 1.00pm

Set 3 Speed Sounds at 10.30am and again at 1.30pm

In Year 1, most children should know all of these sounds so we would recommend watching the Set 2 and Set 3 sounds once per day.

You can watch these on either
