Good morning Mauchline PS & ECC

I have been out a walk every evening with my two children and we have set ourselves a challenge – to identify some of the bird song we hear.

I have attached a link to the Woodland Trust website to help.

Mrs Kilday will love this challenge as she is a true bird-lover!!

Happy Easter to all of the boys and girls of Mauchline PS & ECC. The whole  staff wish parents, carers, extended family members and friends a happy, safe and chocolate-filled Easter Sunday!!

I have created an Easter bunny version of the classic beetle drive game.

There are different versions of this game but I have tried to keep the rules as simple as possible.

I love a Beetle Drive and the children love playing them too – have a go and let me know how it went.

I’m aiming to post something ‘topical’ every week to keep the family discussions going over the period of school closures.

Here is this week’s. Get chatting!!

31 World’s Oldest Man

To link with this morning’s Tweet here is a link to an animated version of the story.  The children have seen this before at assembly and it’s one of my personal favourites!!

Download this colourful set of small images for the younger children to cut out and use as stick puppets based on The Very Hungry Caterpillar.

You can print the images out, let the children cut them out then stick them onto lollipop sticks or pieces of card.

Now let your child retell the story in their own words – even let them add their own favourite food/snacks. Enjoy
