May 2008 newsletter

I have included ideas for all age groups in this newsletter which will help to consolidate previous work covered in schools. As it is nearing the end of the school year it is helpful to encourage children to continue the process of learning and reviewing work done in class. There are many more ICT ideas which will help to do this.
