Good morning Group 1. How are you today? I can hear the birds singing this morning and I’ve just been watching a wood pigeon sitting on my fence so that has made me feel happy. I will feel even better if the sun starts to shine!
Have you looked at today’s date? It’s the last day of March so tomorrow will be???? That’s right the 1st of April which is also April Fool’s Day. Look out for people playing tricks tomorrow!
We have been talking about personal hygiene in class. Today I’d like you to talk through the sheets (on the link Personal Hygiene above) and see if you can remember all the things that are important to keep clean and smell nice. How many of them can you do on your own?
