Home Learning.

We are all trying to get used to this new normal in our lives, as a parent I to am experiencing this for the first time, and I don't mind admitting that its quite scary!

I have put together a few guidelines for us all to follow in my household, and am happy to share them with you, if you wish to follow them also you are very welcome.

 < By 9am be up, washed, dressed ready to start work.

 < No PS4, kindle, Xbox, ipad's unless being used for school work until school day has finished.

 < At least one outside experience each day, walk, play in the garden.

 < At least one hour of English and Maths a day.

 < Have a reading book, or magazine to read if you want something different to do.

 < No one is forcing you to do anything, but adults are happy to help. Look after them and they will look after you.

 < What will be our reward as a family?

We are all trying our best, so be kind to each other.

I am here to advise as I can, just email me.
