Happy Monday (Week 5)

Date: 27th Apr 2020 @ 9:52am

Hello Everyone

Good morning to you all on this bright Monday morning. I hope you all have happy smiles on your faces today and are listening to your Mummies and Daddies. I have received so many wonderful photos of you busy at home learning lots of new skills. Ask your parents to show you your friend’s photos on the school website.

Challenge

Here is the exciting challenge for this week to make a time capsule from the pack you received through your letterbox. So what is a time capsule and what is it for? A time capsule is a box of things which will let the next generation of people (people who haven’t even been born yet) know what your life was about. What can you include in your time capsule? For example, you can include a picture of yourself and your family; write down your favourite food and maybe a label from the food. Print you fingerprint and write your name and age and even pop in a photo. This box needs to be waterproof (just like your outdoor suits remember they are waterproof as they keep you dry when it rains). Dig a deep hole with a spade in the garden and place your box in the hole and cover it. If you need any help there are clips available on the internet.

Busy learning at home....

I know Alfie and Millie have already made their time capsule as their Mummies sent an email to let me know how much they enjoyed the activity. Look at ‘Home Learning’ on the website.

Mrs McPhillips has been busy learning.......

Children I had a very special birthday this year and I was very spoilt by my family with lovely gifts. One of my gifts was an electric strimmer for my garden so I can keep it very tidy. Firstly I had to read the instructions and then learn how to use it (my garden looks lovely now). Another of my special gifts was a new card pack as I love playing cards my Dad taught me when I was a little girl. So I have been having lots of fun playing Patience, Blackjack and learning how to play Rummy. This week I am going to try my new sewing machine which will be tricky! I will let you know how I get on (I will remember what I always say to you.... “I know this will be tricky but keep trying and do your best.”)

Have a lovely week, stay safe, keep busy and remember to be kind to each other. Parents please keep the emails coming as it is wonderful to see the children.

Love Mrs McPhillips
