Hello,

Today I learnt how to tie dye from mummy. We made some tshirts and bags damp with warm water. Then we wrung them out. We put rubber bands on the things in odd places. Then we freestyled with three dyes. i had to wear really big plastic gloves to keep my skin safe. Caspian wont be happy when he sees i got pink on his tshirt.🤣 The things then went in plastic bags on the washing line to set. We said hello to Erin’s grandma from our garden. The bags have to stay on the line until tomorrow but mummy will take pictures of the next stages of my tie dyes.

I have also learnt how the earth was made and found out some facts. i wrote a lot. We watched episode 5 of How We Used to Live and learnt about war starting. The prime minister told the country when it happened. i was really ssd for the children who left their homes to live with strangers. i would be very scared if i had to leave my home.

Byee, see you soon,

Today I learnt some French. I learnt some words and also some landmarks and I drew the country flag. My cat Ludo is getting better. My cat Saxon is getting a lot of attention as he is feeling a bit left out. Saxon only has one eye but he is very cute and it was his dream to become a pirate! I did some maths today and got some of them right but had to do three over again as I got them wrong first time. Mark helped me a lot. I am excited as tomorrow I am going to learn how to do tie dye with mummy. I am also going to make an ice cream sunday. (Sam – I will try and do something that isn’t sweet as you cant enjoy ice cream.)
Bye see you soon love Tanith xx

Today I worked on my daily spellings and maths. I am looking at largest numbers in a trio and also the smallest numbers. Mark helped me today with the ones I got wrong as I keep forgetting to read the question properly. Mummy helped me with my reading book which this week is Whizz Bang Winnie. I am finding it hard to read on my own as some of the words are really hard so I am reading a page to mummy then she reads the next one to me. Her reading is also helping me read out loud and how to say the words properly. I later on read a book on Epic about bears then watch a video about making a volcano. I have already asked mummy if I can have a lesson about how the earth was made and she has put it into this weeks lessons. I also did some handwriting practice. My last lesson was looking at animal groups to see if I could remember the work I did on this last week. I did quite well but had to research newts as I wasnt sure which group they belonged to. I now know they are in the amphibian group. After lessons I went out to feed my sparrows and rooks in the garden then did a singing, dancing and joke show for our old neighbour. He really laughed at my jokes and really enjoyed my song and dance routine. I was out of my breath by the time I had finished my show. Mummy made us ham and eggs for tea followed by jelly, yum yum.

Byeee, see you tomorrow, love Tanith xxx 🐈🐕🐺🐾💚💙

Today I wrote what I did which was nice during the coronavirus time. I can tell you what I wrote.

I wrote a lot of cards to care homes. It makes me feel happy to make someone smile. I made brack with my mummy and my brother for an old lady called Ruth and she loves it.

For someone else helping me, I wrote that mummy, Mark and Caspian help me with my maths and spellings. I love them and they make me feel happy.

I had maths and spelling also today. I fed my sparrows and rooks in the garden too.

It is nice to see everyone back on the blog after Saturday and Sunday. My cat Ludo is getting very better, he is happy he can leave his cage now. He sleeps with me now and he taps my head in the morning when he wants me to get up for school.

Bye, see you tomorrow. Love Tanith x

Today I learnt about ve  day by watching a film set in the day and reading some books and talking with Mark and Mummy. I can tell you all my notes 

To day its victory in europe day.
London is celebrating.
People are dancing and smiling.
People are throwing ticktape out of their windows.
Happy music is playing while people are walking with their families in the street where no cars are running. There are no cars because there was no petrol during the war.
There is more than one thousand people in the street celebrating.
People are waving at friends.
A lot of people are going in fountains to dance.
People are wearing party hats and roses. 
 There are flags everywhere.     
Seeing everyone so happy, seeing their families for the first time in ages and feeling safe made me have happy tears.

Bye for now, we are going to our front door to clap for the carers now.

Today I learnt about humming birds. They are very interesting. I read a book and watched a film about them. I wrote down ten facts. Here are some.

There are 315 different kinds of humming bird.

Humming birds have very weak feet and can barely walk. They prefer to fly or perch most of their lives.

A humming bird’s is 4.2%. It’s body weight is the largest proportion in the animal kingdom.

I helped make Yorkshire puddings today.

I hope you all like my facts and find out about humming birds too. There is a blackbird nesting in our hedge at the moment so I put some bread out for the babies this morning.

See you soon, love from  Tanith xx 🐦

Today I practiced my spelling , copied them down  then I wrote the words in a sentence for each of them. I did well. I can tell you one of my sentences – I live  on the world called Earth.   Then I did my maths and guess what? I actually got two pages of my maths right!! I still need to practice  sequencing. I did some Spanish. I found five words of things in the home. Do you know, the capital city of Spain is Madrid. Mummy gave me some sentences to  copy so I could practice my handwriting.  I watched a film about dog training so I could learn how to train my dog. I am trying to teach her to walk better and give me her paw. I need to spend a lot of time with her so she obeys me. We had a lovely walk to get some exercise. I helped mummy make tea for us all.

Byeee, see you tomorrow! Love from Tanith xxx

Today I did maths,  I struggled  so  Caspian , Mummy ,  and Mark  helped me  and I did  it in the end.

In  How  we used  To Live episode 4 for history, people, if they had nits, had to cut their hair short. But when I was little, when I had nits, mummy washed my hair with some special shampoo.

I did my yoga exercises when I finished my glass of water and apple this morning.

Hope everyone has a lovely weekend.

Bye, see you again on Monday. xxx

Today I learnt about butterflies,-first an egg, then a caterpillar, third a cocoon and last a beautiful butterfly.

My butterfly facts

1. Butterflies have big eyes.

2. They start out as caterpillars.

3. They are poisonous to birds.

4. Butterflies have makeup on their wings so they blend in with nature and don’t get caught or eaten.

5. Father butterflies are bigger than their wives.

Then I made an exercise video teaching people how to stretch. I will do more of my yoga classes for everyone. I can’t put my video on here because it is too big. 🙁😢

I wrote a song about rainbows. When I get a guitar and a piano, I will play the music to my words.

That’s it for now, see you tomorrow. 💜
