Home Learning Resources
At Chapel Green School we are very aware that you, as parents and carers, are the experts on how to keep your children happy and occupied. You probably already have favourite websites and activities that your child enjoys. Below are some ideas that may help and also link to your child’s learning. Your class teacher may also send you additional ideas. We are aiming to help rather than burden you at this time and understand that for some children learning at home has to be disguised very thoroughly to be acceptable! We are also aware that for some of you just getting through the day will be the main aim.
However, if you do manage to do any learning-based activities at home that your child enjoys, please feel free to upload them onto Tapestry, your child’s teacher will be very happy to see what they have been doing.
