Home learning

Hello everyone,

We're still emerged in our Mr. Men topic at school. Earlier on in the week the children found a mysterious briefcase on the grass. After finding the key for the padlock we have found out that in the briefcase so far are a pair of scissors, an apple, a hammer and a nail! The children have been really intrigued about where the suitcase came from and who it belongs to. We've had some super suggestions so far but are still unsure. We will look at another clue tomorrow to see if it helps us. Below are some ideas for some home learning - as always anything you do at home is great and we would love to see it!

• Write down who you think the briefcase belongs to and why!
• Finish writing this sentence. If I were a Mr. Man/Little Miss I would.....
• Write a caption that goes with the picture below:

• Being Mr. Quick or Mr. Slow, measure how long it takes for you to do things - getting ready for school, putting shoes on, eating dinner, tidying toys away. 
• Look at some of the words used for Mr. Men/Little Miss and discuss their meaning: greedy, trouble, fussy, worry, nonsense, daydream etc. 

Finally, we are in the process of updating out Wow! Moment certificate so you may not be able to get any for a few days. We will let you know when the new look Wow! Moments will be available.
