It is important that you as parents and carers continue to communicate with your children in your/their first language(s), especially at this difficult time. In order for your children to continue to develop their new language(s), English and Welsh, it will help if they listen to good examples of the language(s) being spoken at least once a day. The following websites will hopefully help with this.

  1. https://www.talk4writing.co.uk  - click on the section COVID-19 to find activities and projects for children to do at home

  2. https://learnenglishkids.britishcouncil.org   -  games, songs, stories, videos, activities for children learning English
    https://learnenglishteens.britishcouncil.org –  as above, but for older pupils

  3. https://flashacademy.com   - downloadable apps for learning languages (all ages) + Home Learning Project Packs that can be downloaded for free during the time schools are closed

  4. https://worldstoriesorg.uk  - stories from around the world to read together. Many languages available.
