Group 5 – Circle Time Monday 30th March
Hello Everyone,
Today I am feeling like Mr Happy because the sun was shining this weekend and because it is supposed to be sunny today too. Check outside, is it sunny yet?
How are you feeling today? Remember to ask people at home how they feel too.
Today’s suggested timetable is PSD, Maths and PE, break, story, sign of the day and Art, lunch and then Outdoor Learning and Health and Wellbeing.
During PSD time have a think about what you did over the weekend. This weekend I did lots of work in my garden and my husband planted some seeds. I will post a photo later and we can follow them as they grow.
Please share your weekend news with us by replying to this blog. I can then let everyone know what you have been up to.
For Maths, PE, Art and Outdoor Learning please visit those sections of the Blog to find your activities.
In preparation for Music on Thursday, Connie would really like to know how you got on with the first task – John William and his film music. Please could you let Connie know how you got on by replying to her post?
I will post today’s story just after break. The choice for today is
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!’
or
In this story Mrs Thomas looks after a baby for a day and finds that it is not as easy as she thought!
Remember to let me know which you would prefer.
Also remember our photo challenge, you still have time to think about this photo before I post the answer later on today.
What is this? Reply to this post to let me know what you think it is.
Have great days everyone. I’ll be back soon.
