Book Club – Reading – Hot – Week 1

Good morning everyone and welcome to Methlick’s Book Club!

I hope that you have enjoyed your first week of Health fortnight. Hopefully, you have all been reading for enjoyment, just like me!

I have been reading ‘The Boy, The Mole, The Fox and The Horse’ by Charlie Mackesy.

What have you been reading? Let us know in the comments!

Your questions to answer this week:

  • Share the plot of your book – what has been happening? Remember to not give away any major information as to spoil the story for those who have not read your book
  • Discuss the main characters – who are they? What is your first impression of them? Describe their appearance and personality.

You will find my responses in the comments.

Please share your responses in the comments and let’s all talk about what we have been reading!

Health and Wellbeing – First Aid

British Red Cross have provided the following resource – Life. Live it. First Aid education for children

Click on the following link – https://lifeliveit.redcross.org.uk

British Red Cross believe that first aid is a crucial life skill that everyone can and should learn. They aim for all 5 – 11 year olds in the UK to have the opportunity to learn the skills and gain the confidence to save lives.

This resource is split into four sections:

  • What is First Aid?
  • Stay Safe
  • Help Save Lives
  • Emergency Action

Each section provides a range of activities such as ‘How to’ videos, interactive games and quizzes. Take some time to look through the website and let us know in the comments what you have learned. We would recommend that an adult is present when you are using this website.

Feel-Good Friday – Build a Butterfly Bar!

Good morning everyone.  Time for another bit of Friday fun.

As the weather is getting warmer, we are starting to see more and more butterflies visiting our gardens.  Plants like lavender and buddleia (also known as ‘the butterfly bush’) are very attractive to butterflies, but not everyone has them growing in their garden.  Today’s activity is designed to encourage more butterflies to visit yours.

All the step-by-step instructions are contained in the Sway.  You should have most of the ingredients at home and, if not, they are easy to find.

I hope you give it a try – the butterflies will be grateful!

Hopefully you will soon have lots of visitors to your garden.  Don’t forget to come back to the blog and let me know how many butterflies you have seen.

You can find out how to identify butterflies here:
