Mental Health Week – Long Mynd and Hawkstone

Morning and welcome to ‘Mental Health Week’, this week is a little different with less screen time and more creativity. We are having a more relaxed week where we will be posting a time table  (see below) for you to work through as you wish and what best suit you as a family. 

  • The focus for English is the book,  ‘A huge bag off worries’.
  • The Maths theme is shop and supermarket
  • The afternoons are based around five areas: Arts and Crafts, Music and Performance, Science and Discovery, Sports and Fitness, Design and Food Technology. 

This year’s theme is Express Yourself.

In the message, The Duchess of Cambridge said:

 

“This year’s Children’s Mental Health Week is all about expressing yourself – about finding creative ways in which to share your thoughts, ideas and feelings. So whether that’s through photography, through art, through drama, through music or poetry – it’s finding those things that makes you feel good about yourself.

For Children’s Mental Health Week 2021, we will be encouraging children (and adults) to explore the different ways we can express ourselves, and the creative ways that we can share our feelings, our thoughts and our ideas.

Mr Dickson will be holding a zoom introduction at 9:30- link  on Dojo.

Please listen to Chapter 5 above, if you would like to read the Chapter please see the document below.

THE IRON MAN Chapter 5

We are now on the last chapter of the book. In todays lesson I would like you to write a diary entry as if you were Hogarth, you will need to reflect on the story to recall the events that have taken place so far. Remember to use Full stops, Capital letters and past tense.

Based on the day that he first set eyes on The Iron Man. Think about how he would be feeling that night….excited? Worried? Anxious? What happened  the next morning?

E.G.

Monday 25th January 2021

On Monday I was out fishing when I came across a huge iron beast, I was so scared, I had never seen anything so big before. The first thing I did was run back to our farm to tell my dad; I was so nervous he was not going to believe me…
