Sports Day Wednesday: Mr.Mutch vs Mr.Reid #6
THEY ARE BACK!
Ready to take on Sports Day!
Both teachers returned to their competitive views on each other after Friday’s Big Night In.
Because it was Health Fortnight, they decided to use the Sport Day Grid you will be using at home, and adapt the tasks so that it could relate to a timed event.
Enjoy this week’s episode of Mr.Mutch vs Mr.Reid.
This week’s challenge:
Sports Day Stations
Both teachers must complete 4 stations in the shortest amount of time. We set up our stations all within a 5 metre shuttle run with the equipment waiting at the side.
We have….
The Shuttle Run, Star Jumps, Tattie and Spoon and the Shoe Throw.
We hope you have fun and remember to comment, email or seesaw your results to get on the leader board.

MILD: LITERACY & HWB : Sky High #2
Yesterday we talked about our ambitions and dreams something we could reach for in the sky.
Today we are going to look at the skills and qualities we have ourselves to help us reach that target. Have these discussions while you are taking the time to look at the sky.
To reach the ambition in the sky, we are going to need wings, your wings are made of words that the meaning relates to you.
Follow the steps below in the sway to complete part 2.
Remember this can be a drawing activity too and also send in your work to your teacher through seesaw or email.
MILD: Numeracy: Counting in
We are looking at Counting In on the grids this week. This could be counting in 1’s 2’s 5’s 10’s 3’s and so on.
We can start from one and focus on counting on from there or you may like to challenge yourself and select a number in the 100 square and start from there.
Follow the sway below for an activity idea you can do at home. There is a variety of ways you can do this jigsaw style art. I have just given you the instructions to follow one method.

Please see Mrs Lusher sway below on Bilateral Lifts
MILD: Literacy & HWB : Sky High
This week’s sky journal is going to focus on ambition. Thinking about our dreams and big goals and where we want to go. We can take great inspiration from our health heroes thinking about what they have achieved after leaving Methlick.
You could do the same!
The sky seems to always be quite far away, something people will rarely be able to touch. We are all under the same sky and we all have big hopes and dreams.
I want you to think about what is one of your big dreams what would you like to do or be when you are older. It could be a small goal or a big dream.
Over this week we are going to be doing a photography task looking at how we can… REACH FOR THE SKY… and aim …SKY HIGH…
Our first post has focused on talking about our big dreams, so I want you to take a picture of the sky. On whatever device you are taking it I would like you to edit it. As we are going to add some writing, you can type or use the brush and I would like you to put somewhere high in sky that big or small ambition you are thinking about. I have put up a few examples, one which I have now and one from when I was little.
You could also complete this task doing a hand drawn picture of the sky writing in your goal at the top, or cut out letter from a magazine or newspaper and stick them to the top.
Although this is a simple task today you can have a great discussion with family talking about what your big dreams are and how you can …REACH FOR THE SKY…
Here is my sway on my Sky journal writing.
Next time we will add the next part, thinking about how we get there. Because, in the words of my favourite Disney princess ‘Tiana’ “The only way to get what you want in this world is through Hard Work” and we will talk more about hard work next time.
