I've updated TTrockstars to include the 10 timestable and on Spelling Shed, you can practise 'chatty friends' a-e. Try and do these each day and beat your scores!
I've added some more ideas for you to do if you complete your Twinkl Go activities - I particularly like the 'Leave happy notes around the house!'
Stay safe and have a lovely day x
