Hope you are all well during this bizarre time. Remember that not all learning takes place online or on paper. Trying helping out around the house and in the garden. Actually look at what is growing in your garden...make observational drawings of what you find. Look at the birds, I bet you never have before! Remember that this time will be over soon enough and you will (hopefully) never have this opportunity again) How about asking if you can stay up and look at the stars? Take this opportunity to do things you wouldn't normally do.
Otherwise we can HIGHLY recommend the BBC Bitesize stuff! https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/primary
We hope you stay well. Keeping physically active while you are at home is important-and fun!
Try to keep up your Welsh vocabulary and sentence patterns too!
Take care, Mrs Routledge
