This week, we might all feel the need for some more variety and creativity. If that is the case, I hope that there are some choices for you below.

Life Skills

Cooking - The Dough Challenge - come to school to collect some strong bread flour (approximately 500g)  and yeast. Using these ingredients, warm water and a bit of sugar, you will be able to create some delicious dough, which can then be made into bread, pizza bases, buns, naans, pittas and all sorts of fabulous bakes. Mmmmm, I can just imagine the smell as they are baking. Remember to share your pictures.

Try some of these below :

Doing laundry - yes, it's never too soon ! Can you learn to fold, sort and put away each person's clean clothes ? You may need to match up socks, learn to fold t-shirts and jumpers, and find out how to hang clothes properly on hangers, or make up a bed. Have you learned the art of putting on a duvet cover ?
