EducationCity have generously provided all the children at Northwick Manor Primary School open access to their educational website during the school closure period.  Your child will be familiar with this website as it is used as a learning tool, predominately in KS1. Please note that a few activities may  not run without enabling the flash player on your device.

Century learning.

Here are your school's free CENTURY access codes for learning resources in English, maths and science, all aligned to the National Curriculum: 

1. Share the class codes below with your parents. We have provided a separate class code for each year group below.
2. Ask parents to visit https://app.century.tech/login/
3. They will need to enter their class code along with their child's email address. If a child does not have an email address, we recommend setting one up. 
4. The account is created and children can start learning straight away. CENTURY will provide them with a personalised learning path tailored to their skills and knowledge. 

Year 6 -  3JZAF4

As a social enterprise, CENTURY has pledged to give our platform free of charge to any school affected by coronavirus.

This is not a trial and there is no charge. You will have access while schools are closed and until you all manage to settle back into school again.

We have rearranged our class pages to hopefully make it easier for you to find things. Please find below activities that can be carried out at home.  We will be adding to this area as the need arises. There are documents and links to resources for you to look at. There is no expectation that all of the activities need to be completed. We are hoping that you can find something to do for Maths and English, for approximately 30 mins each, every day but we know that this may not always be possible. We have also added some topic area activities for you too.  

Reading and Spelling

Try to read as regularly as you can.

Choose 10 words from the spelling lists we gave you to practise/revise daily.  Ask a parent/sibling to test you at the end of the week. 

'5 a day' Maths Calculations

Are you getting your 5 a day?  Visit this website to keep your maths skills sharp!  Solve 5 different calculations each day.  You can challenge yourself with different levels of difficulty (bronze, silver, gold and platinum) and if you need help, there are online videos and tutorials to watch.
