Good morning my gorgeous Robins J
I have recorded a little good morning message for you all which you can watch by clicking the link below:
It looks like another lovely day to be outside! What are you going to get up to? Remember to get outside as much as possible. I have been out for a big walk with Teddy this morning… my favourite way to start the day.
I have attached a document called ‘Walking Maths’ with some ideas of maths activities you can do while out on your daily walk.
Our timetable is linked below if you would like some activity suggestions. There are also some fabulous money maths lessons on White Rose (week 3) if you would like to have a look at those: https://whiterosemaths.com/homelearning/year-3/
I know that lots of you enjoyed the Chester Zoo livestreams so I thought I would share this amazing website I have found. It shows livestreams from across the world!! It is so fascinating and you can see lots of animals that we don’t have in the UK. Have a look here: https://explore.org/livecams
Have a lovely day and I will speak to you again tomorrow.
Keep laughing and smiling,
Miss Beattie and Mrs Esling xxx
Message from Mrs Powell:
In 1984, Chris Baines actually sent out an invitation to his friends asking them to meet him at 4 am. His birthday plan was to have all his guests listen to the dawn chorus together. The dawn chorus is the singing of many birds before dawn each day.
This all happens about an hour before sunrise. At this time of day, it is too dark for the birds to search for food, but also too dark for them to be spotted by predators. There is less background noise, too, so the air is still and sound carries for a greater distance. There is a sequence to the dawn chorus. Robins, blackbirds and thrushes start first, which may be because they have biggish eyes to see in the dark and because they like to look for worms. After a while, all the other birds join in. Have you noticed the birds singing? I think it is lovely to think that we are all listening to the birds and enjoying their bird song even though we are apart.
