IXL Tasks for English

 

Many of you will be at different stages with your English IXL. Therefore, you might feel you should be working on something different to what I have written below. You should work on the first tasks on the list that you have not yet done. If you have covered everything, please ask me what to do next. You are very welcome to have a go at the support tasks. This will help cover and revise fundamentals you feel rusty with or don't feel you understood the first time round. If you find the Year 6 tasks easier, you can also try the enrichment tasks.

 

Please work on tasks in the following order.
