Homeworking week 1 and 2

Nursery Home Learning
Hello children! 

I hope you all managed to enjoy the Easter holidays and spent lots of time in the sunshine with your families. My little dog has been keeping me very busy!! We have been in the garden, I have been painting, baking, taking my dog for a walk and have found time to eat lots of Easter eggs too! I am soooooo tired at bedtime!  

I miss you all so much and I know that Mrs Pugh and Miss Lester do too. We hope that we’ll see you all again soon. I have set some activities for you to try to complete for the next 2 weeks while you’re at home. There are 2 activities each day and also the DAILY FIVE. These can just be something quick and easy (see ideas sheet below) If you have time to do them all that would be fantastic! But if you are busy helping at home, playing, baking, walking and making memories with your families that is fantastic too!     

The activities that you complete can be recorded in your exercise books or on paper or you can just take a photo.   

If your parents/carers need my help with anything or you would like some more work please get in touch - maesycoedprimary82@gmail.com
I’ll be adding more activities in 2 weeks. 

Stay safe and keep smiling! 

Much Love,
Mrs Jones. 😃
