Carer’s Week is an annual campaign to raise awareness of caring, highlight the challenges that carers face and recognise the contribution they make to families and communities throughout the UK.
This comes at a time when we have all been thinking about people who care and look after us and our pets a lot of the time, especially when we are unwell. Can you think of any? You can find out on this word mat:

Have you heard about this event over these last few weeks? – “Clap for Carers”
Every week for the last 10 weeks on a Thursday evening at 8.00pm, the country has clapped in their gardens, on their doorsteps and through their open or closed windows to show it’s appreciation to all those carers who are working so hard for us all just now.
Here is a story about one special carer – a Scottish nurse, whose name you might have heard recently in the news:

Here is a poem written by some children who want to say “Thank you!”

It is always nice to say “Thank you” to people who look after us. Here are some activities which you could try to help you do this:

Thank you cards:
Write “thank you” with a wax crayon first, before painting over it. And above, turn paper hand-prints into colourful flowers in a pot.
Press this link for a “thank you” rainbow to colour in for the NHS:

Or, try to make this hand-print/heart card.
And finally, – a Thank You song!
Thank you!
Linda.

Windy weather.
Have you ever wondered where the wind comes from? Take a look at this short video:
What are some good things about windy weather?
The wind dries your clothes for free!
You need to have some wind to be able to fly a kite!
A yacht needs wind to be able to sail on water.
A wind farm provides a clean, renewable source of energy.
What are some not so good things about wind?
It usually makes you feel colder! Brrrrr!
It can cause damage to trees.
A high wind makes conditions very unpleasant.
Natural disasters like hurricanes can occur and have dangerous winds.
Here are some wind related crafts you might like to try:
Start with a square piece of paper which can be decorated first.
Fold it in half diagonally, open out and fold over the other diagonal. Open out and you should have a creased “X” on the page.
Cut along the creases about halfway to the middle of the paper. Be sure not to cut all the way.
Bend each corner into the middle. Make sure to bend and not fold.
Once all 4 corners are in the middle, push the push pin/paper fastener through them all as well as the straw or eraser. Be careful not to hurt yourself with the pin!
You can also create your own wind by making a paper fan:
How to make a paper fan:
An anemometer is used by meteorologists to measure the speed of the wind.

Have fun!
