the games are’nt very good so if possible can you put some more fun ones on?

OK - we’ll try our best. We’re stuck with what’s available free on the net I’m afraid, so sometimes the games may not be as fun as you’d like - but they will be related to the subjects we’re studying. We find the most interactive games we can, but sometimes the whizzy sites don’t really teach you what you need to know. A ‘boring’ site might actually have more useful information & activities on. Both would be ideal, but that doesn’t always exist. Thanks for the comment
Thanks for your message anonymous. We’ll have a chat about your concerns when we return to school. Lots of changes in January that should ease the worry!
