Group 5 Circle Time Thursday 23rd April

Hello everyone,

Today I am feeling like Little Miss Chatterbox. I had a quiet day yesterday so today I feel like having a good natter so I am going to phone my dad and wish him a happy birthday.

Who could you call on the phone for a chat?

Today’s weather is going to be sunny and dry again. Our gardens haven’t had any rain for a long time now. For Lifeskills today perhaps you could water the plants in your garden or hang the washing on the line.

For movement today choose a favourite song to dance to. I am going to dance to one of my all time favourites for dancing too ‘Cotton Eye Joe’.

Once you have warmed up it is time for Maths so check out Steve’s Maths posts for your activities for today.

After that it is Fiddly Fingers and your challenge for the day is to make a jigsaw. How about using an old cereal box to make one like this. Perhaps someone else in your family could make one too and then you could try doing theirs and they could do yours. To make it more difficult you could cut the picture into more pieces.

After a break it is story time. Today’s story is Alfie and the Birthday Surprise so check out the blog at 10.30 to see and hear it.

Check out Sign of the day with Lorna and then it is time for Music with Connie and Gordon.

After lunch it is time for Dance with Rachel so check out her moves in the dance section.

To finish the day why not give someone a hand massage in sensory time? It is nice if you have hand-cream or baby lotion but it is fine without too. Perhaps you could have a massage too!

Have lovely days, Sarah

Hello Everyone,

Today I am feeling like Mr. Slow. I am on a go slow today, I think I must be a bit tired!

Who do you feel like today?

Today is going to be nice and sunny again. Did you manage to do any jobs outside yesterday? I know that Leah spent sometime outside practising darts in her garden and Derek has been outside walking the dog. I washed my car. It was very dirty!

For movement today you could go outside and do some exercises. How about trying some of these …

Make Fitness More Fun with a Spelling Workout – Lesson Plans

I am going to try it. To spell out Sarah I will have to bend down and touch my toes 20 times (S), jump up and down 10 times (a), walk like a bear (r), jump up and down 10 times (a) and hop like a frog 8 times (h). I think I can manage that. Let me know how you get on with your exercises.

For Literacy check out Laura’s posts in the Literacy and Language sections and then for PE find out what Pedro is up to in the PE section.

After break it is time for a story. Today’s story is going to be My Naughty Little Sister goes Fishing. Check the blog at 10.30 to access that story.

My Naughty Little Sister Goes Fishing by Dorothy Edwards ...

After that check out Sign of the day with Lorna.

Steve has some great Art activities for you to do. I think I am going to try drawing Mike Wazowski. Maybe I will post my attempts later!

After lunch it is time for Science so catch up on my posts from before Easter or check out the new posts at 1.15pm.

Finally for Health and Wellbeing I think we all deserve a chill time. Find somewhere comfortable to relax and listen to some calming music. I will be listening to this …

Have a great day and remember to let me know what you have been up to.

Sarah

Group 5 Circle Time Tuesday 21st April

Hello everyone,

Today I am feeling like Little Miss Sunshine because it is going to be another beautiful sunny day.

Who are you feeling like today? Remember to ask the people in your family how they are feeling too.

As it is so sunny you could do some water art outside. You just need a bowl of water and a sponge or brush and you can ‘paint’ with the water. On a sunny day like today it will dry very quickly and then you can paint something else. Perhaps you could time how long it takes to dry.

For Movement today why don’t you check out these stretches. You can do as many of them as you like.

For life-skills today could you do some outside jobs?  Like washing the car, weeding the garden or cleaning the windows?

At Dance time check out Rachel’s posts for some new moves.

For ICT have a look at the activities suggested by Steve and Kirsty or you could visit the BBC games site a choose a couple of games to play

https://www.bbc.co.uk/cbbc/games

After break it is time for a story. Today’s story will be posted at 10.30 and it is Hairy Maclary’s bone.

Meet Hairy Maclary and his friends as Hairy Maclary does his best to keep his bone away from his hungry friends.

After the story, visit the Sign of the day page for some more signs with Lorna.

For fiddly fingers today could you do some threading? Let me know what you found to thread and I will post some pictures of my attempts!

This afternoon check out Scot’s posts for Gardening / CDT and for Health and Wellbeing why don’t you do a cake design for the Pinewood Cake competition. Make a design for a cake anyway you like and then send me a photo.

Whatever you do, have a great day. Sarah

For PSD today it is time to think of things that make us happy. Try to think of 10 things that make you feel happy. Tell someone about them.

My 10 things are my family, my dog, sunshine, being in the garden, a nice hot cup of tea, having a shower, a nice piece of cake, Fridays!, seeing the moon and singing.

Check out Gerry’s posts for Movement ideas and remember to be helpful at home. Today what about helping to sort the washing?

For your Maths activities check out Steve’s posts in the Secondary Maths section.

For Fiddly Fingers can you make a rainbow from things you find in your house? I would love to see a photo of it if you can.

Remember to take a break and have a healthy snack. Then it is time to check out today’s story. Today it is going to be What a Mess. I love this book, I hope you will too. It will be on the Blog at 10.30.

In this book we meet What-a-Mess, a small Afghan hound. He does have a proper name but he has forgotten it because everyone who sees him always says ‘What a Mess!’

Then it will be time for Sign of the Day, thank you Lorna, and Music with Connie.

Have a nice lunch. Did you spot my April Fool yesterday – I didn’t really have ice cream for my lunch. That would be silly!

After lunch it is time for Sensory and Dance. Have a look in the sensory section for some activities and then check out Rachel’s latest moves in the dance section.

Have lovely days, I’ll be back soon.

Group 1 Good Morning 31-3-20

Personal hygiene

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?

Enjoy your day!
