Homeschooling - how did day one go for you?

As we get to the end of day one, we hope you had a good day and have enjoyed spending time together.

From time to time we’ll share some of our ideas of things that might work for your children.

  1. Get active - around 800,000 people joined Joe Wicks for his first daily PE lesson for the nation this morning. It starts at 9am each school day for about 30 minutes. It is a great way to set yourselves up for the day. You can join in by tuning into Joe’s YouTube channel.

  2. Story time - a number of authors have recorded themselves reading their own books. There are 11 to choose from at the moment, with some really lovely books. Well worth a few minutes exploring. You can find the stories on this YouTube channel.

  3. Read Write Inc are delivering online phonics lessons each day, with each lesson being available for 24 hours. You can find the videos on Ruth Miskin’s YouTube channel - the people behind Read Write Inc.

  4. The BBC have a wide range of programmes and podcasts available especially for primary school children. To see the range of content they have available then visit the BBC learning site.
