REMOTE LEARNING
Dear Parents and Carers,
All of us at Alderman Payne hope that you are able to keep well and safe over the coming weeks. During this unprecedented time we would like to keep you informed about resources, remote learning opportunities and updates. We will be using various platforms to do this:
1) Text messaging
2) Emails
3) Remote Learning Platforms - Tapestry for Apple Class, Class Dojo for Blueberry Class, Google Classroom for Mango & Avocado Classes
4) The school Website
As new resources become available, we will upload them onto the website or our Remote Learning platforms. Please remember that if you need to contact the school, please email admin@aldermanpayne.cambs.sch.uk.

Daily Phonics Lessons from RWInc

Daily Maths Lessons for KS2
I See Maths is running lessons daily for Year 3/4 and Year 5/6. The lessons are in the form of a video, that children can pause and work out answers and can be accessed at any time of day. There are also some independent tasks for children to complete afterwards. This would be a good resource for parents to continue their children's learning from home.
