Group 5 Circle Time Thursday 30th April

Hello everyone,

Today I am feeling like Little Miss Brainy because I have got lots of writing to do about school today so I am going to need to use my brain.

Who are you feeling like today?

Today is the last day of April. Can you remember what month comes next? This video will give you a clue.

Can you do the sign for the month? I think it is M and Y? I wonder if any of you can reply to this post to let me know if I’m right?

For movement today why don’t you dance along to this song to celebrate the end of April (and the rain!).

For life-skills today could you help someone write a shopping list? That’s what I have to do today. I need to remember bread, milk, cheese, apples … lots of things! I definitely need a list!

For Maths check out Steve’s posts or you could practise your money skills. Collect change from people in your house (remember to ask them first) and count how much each of them gave you. Then find out how much you have got altogether. Then try sharing it out equally. Then remember to give it back!

For Fiddly Fingers why not practise some finger exercises like these. If you haven’t got play-dough you could use blue-tack, a sponge or even a small piece of fabric like a sock or washcloth.

At 10.30 it is story time and today’s story is Mog the Forgetful Cat.

After that it is time to check out Sign of the Day. Maybe Lorna will do the months for us.

Then it is time for Music. I wonder what Gordon and Connie have been up to?

After lunch it is Sensory time so why not make a den? Collect up blankets and cushions and use them to make a den, perhaps on your bed or behind the sofa. What is it like in your den? Is it dark and cosy? Could you take a torch and a book in there and have 5 minutes peace?

Finally check out Rachel’s posts for some dance moves.

Have great days. See you soon for story time.

Hi Everyone

Today I am feeling like Mr Clumsy because last night I knocked my drink onto my laptop! Today I think I am going to have to find someone who can fix it for me!

Who do you feel like today?

Today’s weather is going to be a bit cloudy and a bit sunny but quite chilly so perhaps have movement time inside today. How about some sofa stretches

Once you have warmed up how about helping in the house for life-skills?

What will you help with today?

Hello Everyone,

How are you today? Today, I feel like Mr Forgetful because I keep forgetting to do things and forgetting what I have in my kitchen cupboards to make for dinner!

Who do you feel like today? Remember to ask someone in your house too?

The weather today looks like it is going to be sunny and cloudy but it rained last night so for movement why don’t you go outside and see if the rain has woken up any snails. Let me know if you find any.

What are you going to do for life-skills today? Maybe you could make a sandwich. I wonder what you will put in it? I like banana and peanut butter!

Group 5 Circle time Monday 27th April

Hello everyone,

I hope you all had lovely weekends.

Here is someone you might recognise doing the sign for ‘how are you?’

Some friends of ours ask ‘How are you?’

So, how are you today?

Today I feel like Mr Bump because I worked hard in the garden this weekend and now I am a bit sore!

Today looks like a another sunny day. How about doing your movement outside again today?

How about some yoga disco? Hot air-ballooning sounds good.

For lifeskills today how about making a picnic snack to take outside? You could cut up some fruit for a fruit salad and pop into a plastic cup so that it is safe to eat outside.

For PE check in with Pedro.

Have you healthy snack and then check back here at 10.30 for today’s story which is

Then check out Sign of the Day with Lorna and Art with Steve.

At 12 o’clock I will announce the winners of the cake competition, so make sure you check back then.

After lunch it is time for outdoor learning with Gerry. I wonder what he has got planned for you?

At the end of the day it is Health and Well-being, so why not go back outside and do some cloud watching. Find somewhere comfortable to sit or lie down and watch the clouds. I can see an elephant in these clouds. I wonder what shapes you will see.

Have lovely days.
