PE with Joe sessions:
These will be available on Joe Wicks’ official YouTube channel, ‘The Body Coach TV’, at 9am, going live on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. The first 2021 PE with Joe session is available on Monday, January 11th 2021. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCAxW1XT0iEJo0TYlRfn6rYQ
Each video will last 20 minutes and be streamed live. The sessions have been designed for the home, so no large, open spaces or equipment are needed to participate in the workout.
Maths:
I see maths: https://www.iseemaths.com/ for Yrs 3 & 4 and Yrs 5 & 6
These are a series of short maths sessions, delivered by a teacher, enabling pupils to pause the session to do some calculating themselves, then the problems are worked through and answers are given. There are LOADS of these in all areas for maths for KS2 children.
The Oak Academy:
This was set up by the Department for Education last lockdown, but has been updated and is FULL of lessons for home learning for ALL year groups.
