Home Learning Y1 – School Closure

Out of School Learning

Year 1

Dear parents & carers of a wonderful Y1 child,

As you are aware, Sheffield schools will be closed for a short period due to the Coronavirus (COVID- 19). We want to minimise the impact this will have on your child’s learning so we have put together this bank of ideas to ensure your child will continue learning and consolidating their understanding whilst being away from school. In addition, we would ask that you access the school website daily to look for activities that have been set here by Miss Cupitt (Mon to Fri during normal school times).

Set Activities: 

Friday 27th March

Hello Year 1! Please follow the link to today’s activities

Some activities that your children could be doing:
