Hard at work!

It's great to see the effort you are all making to keep learning while you are at home. 

Well done everyone!

Light and Shadows

Last week's activity for Art was to make Shadow puppets. With all the nice weather we had, there were shadows everywhere but this is a wonderful puppet theatre that could be made at home to entertain all the family!

Nature All Around

I hope you’re all getting out and about, having fun and getting up close with nature! With all the walking everyone is doing these days, it’s a great opportunity for learning more about the world around us. On one of my walks this week, I found this nest on the road, it must have fallen from a nearby tree. It’s small, warm and cosy, made from hay, soft feathers and horse hair! I’m sure the little birds that hatched have learned how to fly and are off exploring the hedges and trees, in search of friends and fun! 

Design an Ice-cream!

One of Room 12's tasks last week was to design an ice-cream, yum! Well, I definitely think I'd be happy with this ice-cream with all the beautiful weather over the Bank Holiday weekend!
