Good morning parents/guardians,

In line with school policy for the remainder of the term, content will be posted every Monday only. This will follow a similar timetable to the remaining three weeks in school, e.g. revision of topics, greater emphasis on outdoor activities, playtime and physical education. The content is suggested work only, so please do whatever suits your circumstances. School books will also help with revision and finishing off topics. Excuse the delay, due to video upload speed!
​
Please say hello in the comments box, if you are following the blog this week. 🙂

Thanks for your continued support. 
​
Ms.Dolan 

English 

Please continue to practise reading. Further information can be found on my April 20th/April22nd posts regarding online reading books for Collins Connect.
If you would like to try a challenging tricky word dictation, use the last 10 words under the 'Blue Level' worksheet. Otherwise, listen back to previous videos for easier dictations.
