‘Learning at Home’ Activity Grids for Pupils Self-Isolating
These ‘Learning at Home’ lesson grids are designed to help your child continue to learn should they be required to self-isolate. Please select activities from the grids and adapt according to the level of your individual child and adapt if necessary. The grids cover literacy, numeracy and many other curricular areas so you will find there is enough content to keep your child focused for a 2 week block of self-isolation. We hope the activities will prove to be both stimulating and enjoyable for your child during this difficult time.
