Dream

As the school is now closed due to the Coronavirus, please see the weekly timetable below which is updated each Monday by 9 am. Answers for tasks can be found in the Additional Resources section. Please mark your child's work and try to guide them with their corrections.

When saving work on Purple Mash, if it is a 2Do then it will save your work to your own folder or you can select the class folder. Some tasks give you the option to hand in the work and some tasks do not. However, if 'hand in' is not available, the scores achieved are recorded when the work has been completed; which I can see.
