Morning everyone
How did it get to being April already? It’s lovely to have lighter nights, hope you are all managing to enjoy them despite social distancing.
Continuing with our Easter theme today, here is another activity which you might enjoy trying over the course of the week.
I have attached a copy of a visual schedule for this activity.
Take care and have a good Wednesday

Good morning
Given that we are on the run up to the Easer break, if we had been in school, our pupils in Lewis Class would be enjoying lots of Easter related activities.
If you have time during this week, I thought it would be nice if our pupils wanted to design their own Easter egg. If you have a printer at home, I have attached an Easter egg template and a couple of Easter cut and paste activities for the pupils to try. No worries if you don’t have access to a printer, we would love to see your own Easter creations.
Have a good day

Good morning,
It looks like we have all survived our first week of home schooling. It has been a pleasure to see your photos of the pupils engaging in their home learning activities, well done. Please do keep the photos coming as it lovely to see all the hard work that is going on despite the challenges we currently all face.
Given it’s a Monday and the suns out, I thought it would be nice to start the week with a little fun and what better way to have fun than singing and signing. In Lewis Class the pupils enjoying listening to Singing Hands, so I have chosen “It’s a Wonderful World” as it seems appropriate at this time. However there are lots of Singing Hands songs available on you tube should you wish to listen to more or to choose a different song.

Hello All
Today I thought it might be helpful to share with you what we have been working on in Home Economics this year. I have attached the visual schedules for these activities and hope that you will enjoy doing this together at home.
Term 1 – we made sandwiches, lots of different fillings and textures were explored. Favourites included tuna mayonnaise, cheese savoury, grated cheese and ham and egg mayonnaise.
Term 2 – We made muffins – basic muffins, cheese muffins, banana muffins and blueberry to name but a few. Below are the links to a few of the recipes we used.

Term 3 – Making jelly – this is another lovely sensory activity, try adding frozen raspberries, tinned mandarins or chop up some strawberries and add to your jelly.
Please remember we would love to see photos of your Home Economics activities from home, so please do share them on the blog, have fun and enjoy. Ensure that your learners help with all aspects from preparation to washing up lol.
These are the visual schedules you will need:

Morning Folk
I hope we all survived our first day of home schooling, not to mention struggling to keep the cupboards stocked and kids exercised. I posted yesterday about grouptime and have attached today some useful resources. These can be used as a cut and paste exercise, to order days of the week or as a matching activity. You may wish to laminte them (if possible) that way you can re-use them throughout this time.

I thought it might be helpful to give you an idea of the types of activities Lewis Class do throughout the week and should you wish to dip in/out of the activities or to follow in a more structures way.
As I work Monday to Wednesday I will be able to give you information and advice on these days and Mrs Coia will be able to advice on the second half of the week.

I will attach some eBooks which you can read at home on the laptop with your child. Please just ask if you want more specific ideas for your child on how you might use the resource.
