Tiger in the School

We hope you’ve had a lovely Easter break. The plan for the next few weeks is to start a new learning pack called ‘There’s a Tiger in the School’. Take a look at the video below if you don’t believe us! There are some activities based on this theme which we would love you to share with us once you’ve completed them.
As always, we are available on Class Dojo or email at any time if you have any queries. We would also encourage you to continue:
Reading at home as much as possible
Learning your weekly spellings (these will be shared every Monday)
Completing the original learning pack if you wish
Keep in touch, it’s great to see what you’ve all been up to.
Many thanks and take care,
Mrs Mort, Mrs Coombes and Mrs Shelmerdine
