# Home Learning: Additional Activities

**Home Learning Activities**

Each class will be provided with daily work. For more information about our remote learning offer, please see our remote learning page [here](https://www.stalmineprimary.co.uk/parents/home-learning/remote-learning).

This page is to share additional links and resources that can supplement our offer of remote learning.

**Online and E-Safety:**

All parents at Stalmine School have been given access to Britannica Online Encycopedia - this is recommended to be used for research rather than online searchers. If you have forgotten or need the username and password - please contact Miss Binns or the school office. Where searches are being conducted online we advise the use of children's search engine www.swiggle.org.uk

It is vital that when using the links provided by school, **pupils are supervised by an adult**. Every effort has been made by all Stalmine Staff to ensure that all links are appropriate and suitable for pupils use.

Further advice on using the internet in the home and staying safe can be found on our E-safety home learning page[ here.](https://stalmineprimary.co.uk/parents/home-learning/online-and-e-safety)

**BBC Learning**

Whilst **not a replacement for school set remote learning**, the BBC can be a huge help on those days where you may have conference calls; meetings or appointments which mean that supervision of learning is more difficult than normal. The BBC resources allow you to ensure that your child is still accessing learning on those days.

- CBBC will broadcast three hours of primary school programmes from 9am every weekday. They will include BBC Bitesize Daily, as well as other much-loved shows with an educational twist, such as Our School, Celebrity Supply Teacher, Horrible Histories and more.
- Bitesize Daily Primary and Secondary will also air every day on BBC Red Button, and episodes will be [available on demand on BBC iPlayer](https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/group/p093cv85).
