BBC Bitesize Daily Lessons

In order to help parents around the UK with homeschooling during the coronavirus pandemic, the BBC has launched daily lessons to teach children a variety of subjects. A number of famous faces have been recruited to help, including Sir David Attenborough who will be teaching about oceans and why animals look the way they do.

The Bitesize Daily lessons will be on the BBC’s existing Bitesize website and there will be lessons available in the core subjects. There will also be an additional weekly, age-appropriate ‘Book Club’. Although there isn't a link for Reception aged children, I am sure that your children will be able to access many of the lessons on the Year 1 pages.

The 20 minute shows have been prepared with, and will be presented by, teachers and education experts. In addition, a range of celebrities have also been recruited to help present the lessons and to read books for the ‘Book Club’including:

• Sir David Attenborough
• Jodie Whittaker
• Professor Brian Cox
• Anita Rani
• Danny Dyer
