Home Learning

Home learning for Reception children

If your child is not returning to school week beginning 22nd June, please continue to use the links below for home learning timetables with daily tasks and activities to do at home based on Phonics, Reading, Maths, Topic, weekly challenges and physical challenges.  Please complete these daily tasks and where possible record your work/learning in the purple exercise books that went home prior to closure.  

Just to let you know, there are a few online companies that are offering free home learning resources. Such as Twinkl, Scholastic, Phonics Play and Oxford Owl (see login details below). However, please be vigilant regarding online safety when using websites at home. Please keep an eye for the age-appropriateness of adverts or pop-ups which may be displayed when your children are using an ICT device. Please see our Online Safety Policy on this website for more information. 

Thank you for your support at this difficult time. Please remember that if your child is not attending school, alongside the home learning that is provided please teach your children all those amazing life skills that you do at home. Such as helping with washing up, folding the laundry, writing recipes or helping with the baking at home. 

Take care everyone and we will all work together to support one another. I will update this class page on any websites to share with your children or learning opportunities to do at home. 

Thank you, Mrs Cowell and the Reception staff.  

*Please note that all the website links on this page can be re-visited and used during any week for extra learning opportunities.

Sharing your Home Learning

As I know you are all doing amazing work at home from my phone conversations with you, I thought it might be nice to share some of your hard work.

If you would like to share any photographs of work or home learning that you are doing to go on our school website, please email these to our school office at: office@brookhouse.blackburn.sch.uk 

We would like to showcase all the fantastic things you are doing at home and how much fun you have had learning with your families within our Class Page. 

We again want to thank you all for your participation in teaching your children at home and challenging their amazing skills and we cannot wait to see the fantastic photos you send us!

The Family Wish Jar or Bottle

This is a fun activity that you may wish to do as a family! 

Every time you wish that you could do something, go somewhere, treat yourselves, see someone you love, visit a new place or invite people to visit you, write it down on a post-it note or piece of paper and put it in a jar or bottle at home (Wish Jar/Wish Bottle). Then when 'Lockdown' has been lifted and Government guidelines say that it is safe to do so, this can be your families bucket list and you can work your way through the ideas in the jar.

We can then all be more grateful than ever for the little and lovely things in our lives!
