Active learners and SEND
These are suggested activities for our active learners and SEND pupils, please do not feel you have to do all of them, you know your child's needs and the support they would be getting in school so please use as necessary:
Family activities - this changes daily and includes online classes for music, drama, science and phonics, webcams for zoos, space and museums to visit from home and resources including SEN games, stories and craft sheets. Click todays activities and then filter by age and free only.
Winter Crafts from recycling - exactly as described!
Lego challenges - lots of short activities to keep fine motor and creative thinking skills busy.
- Vocabulary building games for the whole family to join in - no resources needed.
Previous links from 2020 but still useful:

timestable practice - Like TT rockstars but without the timed element that causes anxiety for some.

Some suggested websites to explore:
Home Chapel SEND pages - this gives individual pages for different types of SEND including speech and Language, ASD, dyslexia and mental health.
