Day 8 of Learning at Home

Hi,

We are Theo (aged 9), Henry (aged 9) and Ella (aged 11). Like every other kid in the country we are currently doing all of our learning at home because of Coronavirus.

Our Mum said that we should keep a diary of how we feel and what we get up to as this will be something that makes the history books.

After a blogging friend gave her the idea, we all decided that a blog would be a good way to share what we are up to each day.

This blog will mainly be written by Theo and Ella, and checked by our Mum, Henry will tell someone what he would like them to write.

So here is our first post...


Day 8 of Learning at Home

ELLA: I enjoyed a few things about my day today. Our first lesson was looking round upstairs and doing a tally chart of the materials used. We then created a graph to see which was the most used material. We also did a horrible spring fractions riddle sheet and it was really hard, I didn't enjoy it. 

I enjoyed sitting outside and having a cup of tea and biscuits. I also went on a walk with my Mum, Nana Jill and both the boys, it felt so nice to get outside, I hadn't been outside since Monday.

I am finding home-school both fun and sad at the same time, its sad because I miss my friends, but I enjoy it as its nice to have my Mum as my teacher.



THEO: Today was a good day, my favourite lesson was the first one where we did the tally chart of materials and then made a graph. My least favourite was the stupid spring fractions. 

We also learnt about sign language and finger spelling, I enjoyed this and I learnt to spell my name in sign language.





HENRY (as told to Ella & Theo): I had fun today, I liked the school work and playing at lunch. I liked colouring my school work and maths. We went for a walk and I was Sonic. We opened the door and we clapped for the nurses,

All three of us really liked the activities that Mum had sorted for us.

    This is great! Be super proud of yourselves as I think most adults would be a little confused about spring fractions!

    This is Fantastic! You guys are doing great! I'm sure most adults don't know what spring fractions are.

Pollution in our Oceans

Right now pollution is in our oceans, which is not good if we don’t stop now our oceans will be a waste bin for plastic. So here are 5 things the plastic is doing to our oceans. 1. is making our beaches look like trash The beach is a nice place family and friends can go to. Unforceitly the plastic washes up on the sand making it not as nice as we would wish. 2. marine animals dying These poor creatures are being killed because of pollution. The reason they are dying is because they ever eat the plastic or get stuck in it which is the reason they die. 3. marine wildlife home being taken over by plastic Would you like your home to be covered in old plastic? We certainly wouldn’t but the same goes for the marine wildlife they don’t like their home being destroyed by plastic. 4. there is 5.25 trillion pieces of plastic in our oceans This is a handy thing to know because that is a lot of plastic in our oceans but that ocean doesn’t only belong to marine wildlife it belongs to us as well and

Did you know that the milky way isn't just a bar of chocolate? It is a galaxy in our Universe, here are some cool facts about the Milky Way. There are over 200 billion stars in the Milky Way. The Milky Way is only a medium sized galaxy with an estimated 200 billion stars. The largest galaxy we know of is called IC 1101 and has over 100 trillion stars. The Milky Way is also really dusty and gassy. About 10-15% of the Milky Way’s visible matter is made of dust and gas, with the rest being stars. On a clear night, the dusty ring of the Milky Way can be seen in the night sky. The Milky Way was made of over galaxies  In order for the Milky Way to achieve its current size and shape it has consumed other galaxies throughout its history. Our galaxy is currently consuming the Canis Major Dwarf Galaxy by adding the smaller galaxy’s stars to its own spiral. The Milky Way is almost as old as the universe itself.Scientists estimate that the Universe is about 13.7 billion years old and that the

Day 13 | A day off

Image
Hello, Today we had a day off from home-school. This was because our Mum was having a bad day health wise and needed to be able to rest, and Daddy was really busy. THEO: I have played on the computer ALL DAY!!! It was really cool as I have a sword to level up in Minecraft and so it was nice to be able to just do that. ELLA:  I decided to do some colouring, and have spent some time reading my book. Finishing the book was the monthly goal I set myself, so I'm trying to read a chapter a day. I also watched a bit of Sonic on TV with Henry. HENRY (as told to Ella & Theo): I played with my toys, I like my Incredibles toys and L.O.L boys. I dressed up as Elsa and sang lots. I watched Sonic on TV. I made the Bolognaise for tea with Daddy. It felt nice to have a day off on a Thursday but it was a little weird too! Not doing any work felt strange but Mum said we would have learnt stuff without knowing it. We're not really sure what she means but she seems happy.
