Hello boys and girls, I hope everyone has had a good week. I heard there was a brilliant Deans Primary Virtual Sports Day. Well done everyone who took part.
Let’s start with some classical music. If you go to 1 hour 36 minutes there is music from the composer Mozart that I think you would like.

Art Work
I thought you might like to try this fab idea.
Bubble Painting
What you will need –
- paint
- drinking straws
- washing up liquid
- paper
First of all decide which paint colours you are going to use and put about a tablespoon of each colour in a different cup. Then add a squirt of washing up liquid to each cup and fill the cup 3/4 full with water and stir well.
Now use your straws to blow the air into your mixture to create the bubbles. Once they are ready to overflow from your cup, place a piece of paper on top and watch how it prints the bubble pattern onto it.
You can then blow back into your paint to create more bubbles and make as many pictures as you want. If they aren’t dark enough just add more paint as you go along.
If you have any bubbles at home you could even use the blowers to dip into your paint and blow some paint bubbles onto your paper.
Drama
Listen to the story of The Gruffalo

Use your Imagination
Now I would like you to travel around your garden as different animals moving through the forest. As well as the main characters – the mouse, fox, owl and snake – there are others that appear in drawings including a frog, butterfly, beetle, woodpecker, kingfisher, dragonfly, squirrel and snail. Choose an animal and get into role.
You should decide what your animal is doing – looking for food or making a home, for example.
What would you do if you heard the Gruffalo coming. Would you lie down, stand still or hide in different parts of the woods? When the Gruffalo has gone you can check to see if the coast is clear and then carry on with your activities.
Ask someone to try and guess which animal you are.
Literacy
More about adjectives! If you want to remind yourself about adjectives have another look at the following powerpoint which shows how useful adjectives are in descriptions.
Now think about The Gruffulo. Draw the gruffalo and then write lots of appropriate adjectives all around your drawing.

Health & Well Being
Think back to The Gruffalo story and the owl character in particular. Complete the worksheet. You will need to put yourself in the owl’s shoes. Then think how you might have acted.
Have a lovely week-end when it comes.
