Dear Parents,
We have planned Literacy, Maths and Topic activities that can be used to support your child whilst they are at home. The Literacy activities are based on some of our favourite Julia Donaldson stories and the Maths activities are based on pattern and shape.
Literacy
Links to support learning in Literacy
Below I have attached 4 youtube videos, based on the 4 Julia Donaldson books which can be used during the week. To help, I have recorded how I would introduce the first activity for each Focus Book. This will provide you with guidance for the remaining daily lessons/activities throughout the week.
