School’s up?

We’re two weeks into the new term of Home Academy Primary…

I have to admit I was a bit dark for a couple of days when the return to home schooling was announced. I had got my head around a fortnight as we’re in the local London lockdown, but to have it increase to six weeks with the prospect of the whole term took a bit longer.

Obviously, logically I know we are lucky with our set up, and we’re in a much better position than many others, but it is hard not to think wistfully of NZ, and the prospect of roaming free, without thinking about masks, (un)social distancing, hand sanitiser, and English lessons.

However, we seem to be getting into a routine. The idiom lesson was quite fun. Rattle your dags anyone?

Although once noticed, it’s hard to unnotice just how many idioms I use…

We’re also part way through a science experiment. My hypothesis is the fizzy drinks were necessary so that the kids could drink the half not needed, and that the length of the experiment will be a factor of how quickly the milk will take to go bad.

Eggs anyone?
