Here is our home work menu for Spring Term 1. Choose one or two activities each week to complete from the grid. You can complete the activities using your j2e account via hwb or on paper at home and send a photograph. Some of the activities are practical and therefore would need to be a photo. 

Also EVERY WEEK, you need to be reading at home. This could be your school reading book, magazine or any book of your choice.
