About Me

Hi, I am a mum and a teacher and during this strange and uncertain times, I will be home with a 7, 4 and 2 year old. I teach 2 days a week at a Catholic Primary School. I thought i would start a blog to share some activities I will do with my kids as well as some advice wearing my teacher hat. Will I be going crazy at home with my children? Yes, but this is also a chance to bond with them and reassure them that they are loved and we will all be ok! As a teacher, normally when there is something big going on in the world, we are with our students, helping and guiding them as well as offering routine and stability. I think the fact that we aren't with our students during this time is the reason so many teachers are offering assistance and help to anyone they can. Please feel free to use anything on this Blog. i am by no means an expert or guru and a lot of the ideas and activities are not mine but have been shared with me by excellent, hard working teachers or fantastic, loving and real mothers.

I hate Writing Mum!

Mr I and, in my experience quite a few boys, dislike writing. It can be really scary for children. There is the content, spelling and handwriting and punctuation all to think about at the same time. It would be like us being given a blank sheet of paper and asked to paint a landscape! 
Short sharp activities broken done into steps can help.

We have written a recount, shopping list, card and letter.
