Sum Dog and Purple Mash are two online resources we have purchased to support learning and teaching in Maths and Language. These resources can be used in school and at home. The PSA have helped us to purchase Purple Mash.
Teachers may set homework using these resources, however if homework has not been set parents can use these resources to support Maths and Language development at home.
