General Learning

As a third national lockdown is under way, the BBC is bringing hundreds of educational resources together to help with home schooling.
Whether on TV, online or on social media, they have lots of brilliant content to help you learn at home. Starting on Monday 11 January, CBBC will broadcast three hours of primary school programmes from 9am every weekday. They will include BBC Bitesize Daily, as well as other much-loved shows with an educational twist, such as Our School, Celebrity Supply Teacher, Horrible Histories and more. |

This website has over 10,000 lessons and resources for the range of age groups and subjects. You can visit their online classroom to view all of Oak’s free lessons, searchable by key stage, year or subject.
Keeping Active
Mr Bolton has sent out some activities for keeping fit at home:
Please see below my weekly timetable for keeping active during lockdown. There are three activities each day, One for just after breakfast, after lunch and just before dinner. These are key times of the day to get active in and around your other learning. It's a fact that exercising before learning improves how well you learn !!!
In addition, there's also three challenges per week, on a Monday, Wednesday and Friday afternoon. If you would like to participate, please record yourself doing the challenge and we will be giving out some prizes relating to these, so you may win!
Please see on the link how to enter.
