Years 3 and 4
Year 3 and year 4 use SeeSaw as their remote learning platform. Each day we will upload Guided Reading, English and Maths which are supported by videos uploaded onto Vimeo. Additionally, links and resources will be uploaded each day for the afternoon, covering a range of different subjects across the week.
Below, you will find an additional, comprehensive list of resources which allow your children to work at home on a range of subjects. Some of the links allow the children to work straight on the website and interact with it e.g. playing games. Others provide the children with activities or videos which the children can watch or use as a stimulus for learning. Any recording can be done with your child in their writing book.
