Mrs Parveen wanted to learn a new skill and she thought why not learn British Sign Language (BSL)!

Natasha Lamb has a brilliant YouTube series where adults and children alike can learn BSL. 

It’s perfect for beginners and can be done easily at home!

Check out lesson one below.

We would love you to share some of your new skills with us soon! Learning the alphabet was tricky but you can try spelling your name!

Put your maths skills to the test and get that brain warmed up! If you’re like me, and you love buying things then this game is for you! You can use your mathematical skills to buy toys from the virtual shop using the coins. You can even do this with your own money (make sure you ask your parents’ permission first)!

The Great Fire of London was a great topic to explore in year1 and 2! Mrs Parveen has found an awesome game we can play to test our amazing historical knowledge about the Great Fire of London! Click the link and explore and play the game! It’s great fun.  Mrs Parveen’s favourite part was helping Tom use the fire equipment from 1666 to put out the fire!

Mrs Ablewhite was sent this lovely story and it helps children to understand that we all have problems and it’s always best to talk about them because it makes us all feel better when we do!

Mrs Parveen loves using pobble365 to find an interesting picture to spark ideas for writing super sentences!  There are some weird and wonderful pictures that allow the children to use their imagination to create stories or sentences.

We know some of you have started scrapbooks/ storybooks during lockdown! We cannot wait to read your wonderful creative stories!

The weekend challenge:
 

Try the crossword with a cold ice-lolly in the sunshine this week! You could make the crossword competitive, play it in teams but make sure you just have fun!  

Here’s this week’s recipe: Chocolate cornflake cakes

50 grams of butter/ margarine

100 grams of milk or dark chocolate, broken into chunks

3 tablespoons of golden syrup

100 grams of cornflakes (or you could use Rice Crispies)
 

1. Children: weigh out the butter, chocolate and golden syrup
2. Adults: melt the butter, chocolate and golden syrup in the saucepan over a low heat. Allow to cool a little before pouring in the cornflakes.
3. Children: weigh the cornflakes and stir into the melted chocolate. Mix gently with a spoon making sure all of the cornflakes are covered with the yummy chocolate!
4. Children: spoon the mixture into 12 cupcakes. Put in the fridge to set.
