Dear Parents / Guardians,
I hope you are all well and keeping safe during this uncertain time. I have found some educational websites which the children can use to support their home learning packs.
Twitter page - Blakeleymiss
The children can tag the class page, on twitter, to show what they have been doing.
Squiggle Park Dreamscape https://www.squigglepark.com/dreamscape/
This is an online game which involves the children being asked different types of reading and comprehension questions. We haven't used this in class yet as I have had only a few children to test it. I have created a log in for every child. I will be in school Friday 3rd April and available to answer the phone for children who need their log in. It is an American programme however some of the concepts are relevent to our curriculum.
