Today is International Lego Day
Do you have any Lego or Duplo at home? If you don’t do not worry as you can still take part.
Challenge 1.
Can you make a tower that is as big as you?
How many bricks did you need?
What other items can you use to make something as big as you? (perhaps you could use old boxes or other things that can stack)
Challenge 2.
Can you choose two different colours of bricks (or sizes) and make a simple pattern with them?
How many different patterns can you make?
Can you use other items to make a pattern? (maybe you could use items you have found while out walking)
Challenge 3.
Can you use your imagination to create something fabulous?
As always we would love to see what you have done so please share them on your ILD or the school twitter page @abbotswell.

As it has been much colder this week, I thought I would share some of my favourite videos of yoga, dancing and exercise. Something to keep us warm. You can do these with your siblings or as a family.
This is my favourite yoga video, which is centred around the story, “We’re going on a bear hunt.”
Usually we dance on a Friday, but it is also great to warm your body up too.
Exercise is another awesome way to warm your body up on a cold winters day. Her is a quick five minute video which you can do on your own or with family members.
Aa always, stay safe.
The application process for applying for an ELC place (nursery) for the school year 2021/2022 is now open.

Hello everyone,
Those of you who have older siblings in school may have noticed they are learning about different things around the world. Today I have a story for you that at the end says hello in lots of different languages. Have a listen and see how many you can say!
Do you know any other ways of saying hello?

Hello everyone,
Today we would have had a Burns Supper in nursery to celebrate Robert Burn’s Birthday!
Robert Burns lived along time ago and is famous for his Scottish Poems and Songs. Here is a clip of someone sharing their Burns Day.
Perhaps your family is planning to have haggis, neaps and tatties for your tea today. If you have a Burns Supper at home we would love for you to share a photo on your ILD or school twitter @abbotswell.
I have a funny Scottish Song for you today, see if you can sing-a-long.
