How were these experiences different? Compare them and discuss it. What would you need if you were blind in a seeing world? Your first diary entry could be about someone you are missing who is significant (or special) to youand what you'd like to do when you see them. It might be your best friend and you might like to play footie or you might be missing your Grandma. David Litchfield decided to draw a picture and post it online every day for one year. The following video was used to promote an exhibition that shared the pictures. Could you try to complete a drawing every day to improve your own skills?

David first started to draw when he was very young, creating Star Wars and Indiana Jones ‘mash up’ comics for his older brother and sister. Since then David’s work has appeared in magazines, newspapers, books and on T-shirts. He has also exhibited his illustrations in both solo and group shows in the U.K, Europe and America. Mathletics measuring work is still on line and LOADS of you have logged in to have a go! Well done all of you! I will be adding more to have a go at but whilst the others log in you could try some of the mathletics games.From your list written on Monday choose another animal and compare it to your fact file animal.Try to choose something very different for example if you chose a lion first now choose a Ladybird. Choose letters that make words that can be read phonetically. Write the letters in chalk on the ground outside. Give your child a word and they must spell it by jumping from letter to letter. This could also be done on paper inside the house. First how fabulous it's been to talk to lots and lots of you over the last few days. I am so pleased that you are all getting on ok and that you are all so excited to share what you have been doing at home. It has really made me smile and I think that you, your parents and guardians are all super-duper stars! Does the book contain anything that teachers would wish to know about before recommending in class (strong language, sensitive topics etc.)?
