Good morning everyone. The weather wasn’t so good yesterday, hopefully it will be a bit drier today and you can spend some time outside.
Morning prayer and an Our Father today.
Literacy
Revise your phonemes and add anymore words to your list. In class, we normally look at a phoneme story. Can you make up your own using as many of the phonemes as possible? Make sure to highlight the phonemes throughout.
This week is Mental Health Awareness week with a focus on kindness. In class, months before the virus, we wrote “postcards of kindness” do you remember? I would like you to design and write a message on a postcard and give it to someone in your house or (if you are allowed) post it to someone, a friend or family member. Being kind not only brightens up someone else’s day, but it makes you feel good about being that kind person. There are many lonely people out there just now or people who are feeling sad, you can help them just a little by doing that.
Numeracy
Yesterday we revised time – o’clock and half past. Today we will revise quarter to and past.

Yesterday we were looking at the Ten Commandments and Jesus’ message to,
‘Love one another as I have loved you.’
I asked you to think about your families and how much you love them. I also reminded you that Pope Francis has told us all to care for others, ‘No ifs, no buts!’
Today I would like to think about the people living in the same house as you; there might be two of you, there might be six of you! It doesn’t matter. Now I would like you to think of FIVE little things that you could do this week for those in your home. It could be that you set the table, make your bed, clear up after a meal, make someone a cup of tea or even take the vacuum cleaner for a walk!
When you have selected five things, draw some heart shapes and inside each, draw or write your tasks. You can make some extra hearts for decoration. Colour or decorate them carefully. Next make a circle wreath-shape like the picture below or if you have a paper plate, use that. Attach your heart shapes and display your Caring Wreath somewhere you can see it easily. Carry out your tasks this week and show that you care – no ifs, no buts!
Please email your Caring Wreath to gw09grahamannemarie@glow.sch.uk or, with an adult’s permission, upload them on to Twitter @St_BarbarasPS and to Pope Francis’ Twitter @Pontifex
Health & Wellbeing
Yesterday we had a look at making healthy snacks and the skills you need to create something delicious in the kitchen!
Today as we get closer to Sports’ Day next Tuesday, let’s be a little more energetic with a dance and then some yoga!
Have a nice day everyone!
