Thursday's Activities

Morning everybody,  So, for today I've got a few activities for you to choose from based on some different interestests. I'm going to pop a few on the blog, please feel free to choose as many or as little as you like.  Have fun! 

A note for parents.

Just a quick message, I have re-tested all of the links on the blog and they are all working from this end. Please note that if you are trying to open these on a mobile phone or a table that does not have Adobe Flash, this could be the reason that they are not working.  However, if you go onto Phonics Play or Top Marks you should be able to log-in there (using your own personal log-in) and search the activity from there.  Also, tomorrow is going to be our last working day of the week, this is due to Friday being a bank holiday. So, tomorrow will follow our usual Friday format, more fun activities rather than phonics or math based. Our workers of the week will also be added tomorrow and you will be able to watch the assembly with Mrs Speak at 2pm via the school website.  Please can I ask any parents emailing me work, if you could also upload it to Tapestry so we can assess it and add it to your child's evidence.  We are still looking for any parents (or older siblings) that
