Tuesday 18th October 2016 – Home Learning

Well done Class 1! You have worked incredibly hard over the past 6 weeks learning lots of tricky spellings for our weekly spelling tests.

Instead of our usual spellings home learning, over half term we would like you to access the Active Learn website, where you have been allocated some grammar activities/games. These will really help to develop our knowledge of how to write super sentences and use capital letters correctly.

To access Active Learn, please go to:

https://www.activelearnprimary.co.uk/

Your log in details can be found at the front of your home/school diary including the school code, which is ‘gaas’

All the work you have done can be viewed by the class teacher, so don’t worry if you don’t write down all the times you have accessed this smiley

Finally, there are also reading books allocated on Active Learn so please do take a look at these in between changing your reading books in school!

If you have any questions or have trouble accessing this, please let me know smiley
