Additional home learning

 

 

 

Maths games - In school, we often play Hit the Button to build up our speed and fluency of maths facts. Our top score in school is 30 - can you beat it? 

 

BBC home learning -  The BBC are broadcasting 3 hours of learning each day for Y3-6 on CBBC between 9 -12. Whilst this doesn't match our learning in school, it would be a useful alternative if you are having trouble accessing the online provision. The programmes are also available through iplayer. 

 

*Due to high demand nationally, some of online resources may be unavailable at certain times.  If you have difficulties, please complete a different piece of home learning - perhaps from another day and try again later.  Thank you.*
