I hope this has given you some ideas – I will now add a link to some previous good examples of title pages on this topic!

Half Term


It’s always good to reflect on the term just passed, and to look forward to the term to come.

My main concern during the term just passed is that I haven’t always given you the best homework, it has sometimes been rushed, and I haven’t always managed to post it on here! So my new term resolution is to post your homework on here so that you can get it all done!

Look here on a regular basis – hopefully by Sunday morning – to see what your homework is for that week! We are covering some Big Questions this half term – I hope you enjoy them!
