Hello!

Hi everyone,

Hope you’re doing well. I’ve attached a few photos of my lockdown which has involved lots of den building, walking in Gledhow Valley Woods (spot the ducklings), taking my cat for a walk (long story), buying crocs (a clear sign of my middle age),  and my greatest accomplishment: learning to do plaits!

What great expressive reading of the recent fluency text!

Using Oxford Owl online is a great way to read a variety of texts.

Another creative design of the Eiffel Tower and a visit to see the real thing!

Wow – this model must taken some time and patience.

I also managed to find a photo from visiting Paris 15 years ago!

We loved this junk modelling – combining design technology, science and money education!

Great money education and homophone spelling learning.
