Home Learning support during isolation
At Bonner, we want to ensure that the small number of children that need to be educated at home, for example, due to shielding or self-isolation, are given the support they need to continue learning and feel part of our wider Bonner blended learning approach. If home learning is required it is aligned as closely as possible with the content of learning covered during in-school provision. We use content from the Hamilton Trust and White Rose to support this learning.
Children in Year 1 and Year 2 will be able to access remote learning tasks at home through the online platform, Seesaw.
Children in Years 3-6 will be able to access remote learning tasks through the online platform: Google Classroom.
We have also provided some useful links below as well as practical home learning ideas for children in Reception and Nursery and those with SEND.
Seesaw
Years 1 and 2 will be introduced to Seesaw in their computing sessions at school.
Seesaw is a user-friendly online platform where your teachers can set you tasks to do at home. You can record, write, draw, take photos or videos to complete your work. Your teachers will be able to check and reply to your tasks too.
All you need to log in to your classroom is your text code. If you're not sure of your code, please email homelearning@bonner.towerhamlets.sch.uk with your name and class and we'll respond as quickly as possible.
If this is your first time using Seesaw or you're stuck on how to find your work, here is a video to help:
Google Classroom
Years 3 - 6 will be introduced to Google Classroom in their computing sessions at school.
Google Classroom is like an online classroom where your teachers can easily set you tasks. You will be able to write any questions about your learning and a teacher will respond as soon as possible.
All you need is your username and password (the one you use to log into a computer at school) followed by @apps.bonner.towerhamlets.sch.uk. If you're not sure of your login details email homelearning@bonner.towerhamlets.sch.uk with your name and class and we'll respond as quickly as possible.
If this is your first time setting up Google Classroom or you're stuck on how to find your work, here are some videos to help:
