You can take this week to catch-up if you still need it. If you are ready to move on, you should complete the topic assessment for the section of unit 2 that we have completed so far. This is available to view here. We will look at this when we are back together in September; it will be used to support us with remembering techniques and revising the topics covered in theme 2, so far. You can complete the assessment using an open book technique if this supports you.

This week we are looking at consolidating work completed so far. If you are up-to-date with all business work you might want to go back to a section that you would like to revise, or if you are behind with another subject you might need to focus on this for a week. If you are behind with business, I have attached all Theme 2 loom lessons to the powerpoint. You can begin to catch up by doing one or more of these lessons.
