You can also borrow a book from the school library. Please note - you cannot take a new book until your current ones are returned!

Maths

This week we'd like you to look at the bbc supermovers website. You may already be familiar with these videos, but if you are not, they are a great way of practising children's math's skills in an active way.
Follow the link below and choose a video to watch and move to. Your child might already have a favourite from school that they'd like to share with you!

This week's task...

This week we have continued learning about explorers and their expeditions. 
We have focused on two explorers in particular - Christopher Columbus and Neil Armstrong. 
Have a look at each of these explorers using the following websites... 







Write down anything you think is the same about Christopher Columbus and Neil Armstrong, and anything you think is different. 
When you've finished, you might also like to play this explorers' game...
