Cats sleep, anywhere, Any table, any chair Top of piano, window-ledge, In the middle, on the edge, Open drawer, empty shoe, Anybody’s lap will do, Fitted in a cardboard box, In the cupboard, with your frocks- Anywhere! They don’t care! Cats sleep anywhere. Eleanor Farjeon |

Hello, Wilsford Class
Hello everyone,
It is so sad not to be in school together at the moment. Thank you for being so motivated and doing your learning at home. You are SUPERSTARS! Thank you as well, to your mums and dads for helping you to do your school work at home. This is such an unusual school year but we need to remember that we are doing this to stay safe and healthy. I am looking forward to seeing all of you back at school in September.
Next week I will set you a special project for the last week of term, the Key-worker children in school will do the same project then we will display all of the work together.
Mrs Woodley

Try Flynn’s amazing idea! Flynn has invented a Spelling Spinner. When he gets a spelling right he gets a sweet – but if he gets one wrong the spinner eats it! If you make a Spelling Spinner you could reward yourself with a treat, or a minute of television for every spelling you get right. Decide what would be a good reward with your mum or dad before you start. Maybe you could agree to have more than one go at each spelling to improve your chance of winning your prize! |

On Friday 8th May we celebrated the anniversary of VE Day. People all around the country remembered when World War 2 ended.
 |
 |
 |
Even though we couldn’t celebrate this in the way that we planned to it is very important not to forget something so important.
This is how some of us are celebrated VE Day:
| My husband put a Union Jack on our church flagpole and we are had a cream tea in our garden. |  |
||
| Mrs Sims celebrated VE Day dressed in 1940s costume. She looks very glamourous! Her dog is called Merlin. He is named after the engines that are in Spitfire aeroplanes. |  |
||
| Mrs Jenkin’s family is dressed in red, white and blue and they had a special lunch. |  |
||
| Mrs Fay had a cream tea in her garden. |
|
||
| Mrs Muir had a special street party. |
|
||
| Mrs Glover had a socially distanced tea party.
Mrs Higham had a special tea party in her village. Everyone sat in their front gardens at the same time in the afternoon. They ate sandwiches, scones with clotted cream and cakes. There was lots of bunting up everywhere. |
 |
||
| Mrs Carson decorated her garden. |  |
||
| Miss Naish made a red, white and blue pavlova.
Lily the dog loves having her photo taken! |
|
 |
|
|
Here are the photos of our church after we put the Union Jack up and hung bunting in the hedges.

7.5.2020 – Five reasons that I am thankful today
 |
Ta Da. These are the potatoes! |
 |
Let me introduce you tour guinea pig. She is called Daffodil and she has very long hair. We have to bath her in the sink and trim her hair if it gets too long. In the winter we dry her with a hair dryer. |
 |
I am sewing up my crochet, although I need to wait until the shops are open so that I can add an edging. I have run out of wool, now. |
 |
If you are bored, or you need some space to yourself you could make yourself a cosy box den. It is full of blankets and a bean bag so it is really cosy. Daisy has decided that she likes sleeping in the box! |
 |
If you have been looking for rainbows in peoples windows you could try and make your own from your pens and pencils. |
1.5.2020 – Five reasons that I am thankful today (and other things that I am learning)
 |
This is confession time! On the week starting 9th April I added this picture of my first potato plant growing. I have now learnt that this is only a weed and not a potato plant. I expect you all knew that already. I now have a nice row of plants growing happily in the sunshine and rain. |
 |
I have learnt that simple things make you happy. Spending time together, lighting a firepit and eating marshmallows is really good fun. |
 |
We are all always learning – even grown ups. This is my shower curtain, I try and learn a new element from the Periodic table everyday! |
 |
I learnt what the inside of the bee hive looks like. You can see lots of bees today. I also learnt that if you take photos of bees when you have taken their house apart they get very cross. A bee followed me into the house and stung me on the cheek! |
 |
I now have a really big pile of crochet! |
19.4.2020 – Five reasons that I am thankful today
 |
Daisy is very happy that most of her human family are at home with her all of the time. She thinks that she is in charge! This week she has mainly been sleeping and drinking from the watering can. |
 |
Look at my pile of crochet – it is growing really high!
Remember to send me photos of the things that you have been making, baking and growing! |
 |
The supermarket doesn’t always have everything that I need, so I was really happy to find that the mill in our village is making flour. I am going to make some soda bread with this.
You could invent a recipe and try to make it if you have the ingredients. |
 |
Look at the apple blossom, now! I was given an apple press, so later this year we can try to make apple juice in Wilsford. |
 |
When we put our paddling pool away it left this imprint in the grass. I think that this is really interesting, by the morning it will probably have disappeared.
Can you find any 2D shapes in your house or garden? If you leave something heavy on the grass all night can you make your own grass print? |
19.4.2020 – Five reasons that I am thankful today
 |
These were made by my son who was inspired by watching The Great British Bake Off. Can you help your mum or dad make a meal this week? |
 |
Easter – we decorated our table and celebrated Easter week with lots of Zoom church services.
Did you make an Easter garden? We made one using Russian dolls instead of disciples and a cat basket for the tomb! |
 |
I have a new crochet project – it’s hard to see from the picture but the yarn I pale blue with silver sparkles in it. |
 |
I have played a lot of games with my family. I love games – our favourites are Bananagrams and Rummikub. |
| I don’t have a picture of my last thing to be thankful for, but it is laughter. I laughed a lot today when I gave my husband a haircut. I only used scissors, I didn’t use clippers and the result was OK. We did it I the garden and it was very windy and we laughed a lot! Have you had your hair cut by a member of your family? Maybe you have had to do a haircut. (The good news is that it grows back!) |
9.4.2020 – Five reasons that I am thankful today
|
This is my first potato plant growing in my garden. We water them every evening – I can’t wait to dig up enough potatoes to eat for tea!
Are you growing anything I your garden? |
 |
Sunshine!
Find somewhere sunny and see if you can make some shadow puppets on a wall. You could put on a play using your hands as the characters. |
 |
This is the apple blossom starting to form on the trees. It is a beautiful pink colour.
Have you seen any blossom when you have been walking with your family? |
 |
I have had lots of fun making things. I know that you all like making things too. In the place where I live, we have decorated our windows using tissue paper to make people smile. I made this with my son, we really enjoyed doing a project together. It took us a whole day and it is about 2 meters long. When it’s dark it looks like a giant stained glass window. |
 |
This is the blue sky that I saw when I went for a walk in my garden. We learnt about clouds earlier this year but I couldn’t see any, today.
Can you spot a cloud and remember its name? |
2.4.2020 – Five reasons that I am thankful today
 |
This is my cat, she is called Daisy. She always wants to be stroked unless she is watching the birds under the bird feeder!
If you have a pet and you like sewing, you could make a pet toy. |
 |
There are beautiful sprig flowers in my garden.
What can you see out of your window? |
 |
There is apple blossom on the apple tree.
I will show you how much it has grown after the holidays. |
 |
Last year I was inspired by the school garden. Here is our vegetable patch that is ready to have courgettes, beans, potatoes and carrots planted in it.
You could plant your own seeds. Even if you don’t have a garden you can grow cress and other herbs on your windowsill. |
 |
This is our bee hive. The bees found us last year and made a home in the wall of our house but now we have them in a bee hive. When it is sunny they venture out of the hive to look for flowers.
Look carefully and you can see some bees. |

- If you see something online that makes you uncomfortable you should tell and adult and turn the device that you are using off.
- If you are at school, click on the dolphin and tell a grown up.
- Only play games on the internet with people you know.
- If an older brother or sister asks you to play a game you’re not sure about, ask a grown up.
- Let a grown up know when you are playing online.
Even if you are working at home, you can still carry out our classroom rules. Remember to smile, to have a go and do your best and be thankful and helpful. Can you think of 5 things that you are thankful of today?
