It’s the Monday before half term, it’s the Monday before half term, it’s the Monday before half term. Did I mention: it’s the Monday before half term? You’re nearly there. One final push and you can take it easy for a week. Woohoo!

(Work hard today and everyday until Friday though, you rascals.)

Now, if already watched the video, you might be thinking that in English you are writing a screen play for Romeo and Juliet, but actually that’s tomorrow. Today is guided reading. Maybe all those hat changes had thrown Mr Windle forward in time, like Dr Who. But with more hats!

Your first challenge today is to ignore the screaming child in the background of the daily message. Think of it as a snippet of real life, straight from the Windle family album. (Ten points to anyone who can spot the tiny pink unicorn grazing on the meadow in the background.) Once you’ve had your ears repaired, please embark upon your maths, English, grammar, art and time capsule work.
