As always, there is no expectation to carry out all of the tasks for the week, so feel free to dip into the resources and have a go!
From both websites, you can also access the home learning for Year 1 and Year 2 – if you are struggling with Year 3 then have a go at previous class activities to build your confidence. We don’t want anyone to be struggling.
