Dear Parent,
Below are educational websites that cover Mathematics, Literacy and other areas of the curriculum. These are not age specific, but many provide age ranges for the activities.
These websites can be used during unforeseen school closures.
We would also recommend reading an age appropriate book, writing an imaginative story, reviewing a product/movie/book (and this could be a video or written report) or playing a board game.
Children could also make up a quiz on a topic they have been covering in school or use construction materials like Lego or K’Nex to build something topic relate
