Boris Johnson has began delivering daily updates from the government live to the nation at 5pm. He is usually joined by two scientific leaders who update the nation on the fight against Coronavirus.

On Wednesday 18th March, Virus’s talk was all about education. He has notified everyone that all schools WILL close their gates on Friday for an indefinite amount of time.

Schools have been busy preparing work for children via home learning. This is going to be hectic! I’ve now got the big three all in high school & Isla’s curriculum to teach at home. How do I separate them but support them equally? How will they progress as they would in school? How do I keep them motivated daily? All whilst trying to cope with the fact a killer virus is on our streets. Argh! I can see a tough few months ahead.

Isla has come home with her log in details for Showbie, looks a fantastic platform for her learning. The big three have all come home with log in details for google classroom. We’re logged in and ready for Monday morning.
