Good morning everyone! Today we are looking at making a fruit salad. We will be using peeling and cutting skills to help us complete this task. I wonder, who would like to make a fruit salad today? If you decide to try this, remember to let us see on Facebook or Twitter 🙂 The visual instructions can be accessed below.

Please remember that I am here any time if you need any help or have any questions. Have a lovely weekend when it comes.

Good morning Lewis Class. It is looking a bit cloudy this morning, but hopefully the sun is going to come out for us this afternoon! Today, Mrs Creighton is planting sunflower seeds… would you like to try?

I have included your learning intention and a set of visual instructions down below.

Lewis Class: Mrs Coia is making sensory bottles today

Good morning everyone! This week, our Haysholm sign of the week is ‘calm’. I thought we could try and make a sensory bottle, as that can help us to feel calm.

I have included our learning intention and a set of visual instructions down below.

Friday 15th May: PJ Day!

Hello everyone, it’s Happy Friday! All of the ladies in Lewis Class are wearing their pyjamas today… are you going to wear your pyjamas today?

All the ladies in Lewis Class decided to make a video for you all to watch. This is a song that we sing and listen to in class. I wonder, could you sing and sign along with us?

Take care everyone,

Friday 1st May

Hello Lewis Class, today is happy Friday! I would like you to look at the blogs we have posted this week and see if there is anything that you haven’t tried yet. Or is there anything that you would like to try again? It is good to revise and practise your skills at home. Household jobs such setting the table or putting washing in the washing machine are excellent jobs for doing on a regular basis.

I would like to make you aware of our new Youtube channel. This is where all of our videos are now going to be kept so that they are easy to find. You will be able to find videos from other classes on the channel too, now making it much easier to browse through the school’s content.

We will continue to post here on our blog as this is the best way to include visual learning intentions etc, but you can now use your Smart TV, phone or computer to search our videos without the need of going through the blog. Keep an eye out for extra fun videos put on our channel…

All you have to do now is to search ‘Haysholm School’ on Youtube!

Have a great weekend everybody!

Thursday 30th April

Good morning everybody! Today the weather is looking a bit wet and rainy so let’s do a job inside the house. Today’s special job is to set the table. This is something that we do at school every day before snack and lunch time. Could you try this at home?

You will need to count how many people are going to be eating at the table before you gather your items. I have included a visual set of instructions down below, along with a picture of how our mat should look once it is set. You can print out the mat if you wish, or you can set a place at the table for your child to copy.

Whatever you end up doing today, I hope you have a great day!

Friday 24th April

Good morning Lewis Class. It’s happy Friday! I’ve included a link below which gives you information on playing with bubbles. This is something that you have all enjoyed at school… maybe this is something you would like to try at home? If adding colour to your water or bubbles, a squirt of washable paint is the best thing to use.

Thursday 2nd April

Good morning Lewis Class. Today would have been our last day at school before the holidays. Had we been there, we would have finished off with lots of fun! I’ve included a link below which gives you some nice sensory ideas for Easter.

Today’s special job is… to do something that makes you happy. Mrs Gribben gave us this challenge last week, but I think this is a ‘challenge’ that is so important to revisit. Everyone has done so well over the past couple of weeks in settling into this new routine. All of the ladies are missing you greatly, but we have loved seeing your photos and videos. Thank you so much for keeping in touch with us!

Take care of yourselves and stay safe!
