It was great last week to see so many examples of the work the children had completed as well as photos of them working, so if you like to share your child’s work with me (for rewards and feedback), again this can be done via the Class Dojo portfolio. As usual, if you have any queries, please continue to contact me via the Class Dojo app.
I will also set some daily challenges on a Tuesday and Thursday and send the link out via Class Dojo around 8am each day.
Kind regards and keep well
