You received your login details to Atom Prime Learning last year (Year 3) (if you do not have your login details please speak to your class teacher).

When you log in, you will find a Baseline Assessment has been assigned in your ‘To-Do List’. Please note, this assessment is only there to facilitate an initial academic profile in terms of strengths and areas for development; it is low stakes and should be completed independently whenever you have sufficient time. Please let us know if you have any queries (make sure you parents/siblings do not support you during your baseline assessment).

You have been assigned homework on Atom Learning (www.atomlearning.com) this week:

- English (Prepositions and Verbs)

3. TTRS - a new times tables challenge has been set. You will be rewarded for speed and accuracy.
