Good morning Robins and Happy Thursday J
How are you all this morning?
When I spoke to lots of you last week, you all seemed to enjoy the Garden yoga resource that I shared with you. Therefore, today I have uploaded another yoga/breathing resource to our blog called 'Calm down brain breaks'. It has lots of different breathing techniques that you can try at home when you are feeling worried or anxious, or simply want to relax for 5 minutes.
This morning Mrs Southern has read a story for you:

Our timetable is attached below if you would like to carry on with your topic work this morning. For maths and writing we will continue with our Oak National Academy Lessons. Today in English we are looking at different types of punctuation and in maths we are focussing on multiplication using partitioning.

Message from Mrs Powell:
Never judge anyone by the way they look.
Once upon a time, in a desert far away, there was a rose who was so proud of her beautiful looks. Her only complaint was growing next to an ugly cactus.
Every day, the beautiful rose would insult and mock the cactus on his looks, all while the cactus remained quiet. All the other plants nearby tried to make the rose see sense, but she was too swayed by her own looks.
One scorching summer, the desert became dry, and there was no water left for the plants. The rose quickly began to wilt. Her beautiful petals dried up, losing their lush colour.
Looking to the cactus, she saw a sparrow dip his beak into the cactus to drink some water. Though ashamed, the rose asked the cactus if she could have some water. The kind cactus readily agreed, helping them both through the tough summer, as friends.
What have you done for a friend? The cactus and the rose look very different but we are all unique and have special gifts.
“The things that make me different are the things that make me, me.”
