Must get a grip.
The day is evaporating, and I’m procrastinating. Right, some targets: Excavate kitchen so that I can make lunch but the children won’t eat it as it’s wholemeal bread Clear away washing in bathroom so that I can hang more washing … Continue reading
Brain hurts
Writing questions is nearly as difficult as answering them! Been a short day today – after a truly horrid night with the younger offspring, Tim let me sleep in til I woke independently – at 10 to 12! Told you … Continue reading
Interview me!
questions by Joanna 1. If you were an animal, what would you be, and why? Um, ah. Something in the cat family, but not too big. Wildcat maybe? Strong, independent, not too many natural predators, and not that much of … Continue reading
Perfect.
I’ve just rounded off the perfect day by breaking the mug that Big made for her daddy. Started the day by discovering that one of the three hosting servers I use was having difficulties (hence the appearing and reappearing blogring) … Continue reading
Web Ransom Letter
Nearly qualified as Daft Invention number 2. Fun Anyway Try it with “Pay up or I will return your kids”
BBC NEWS | Education | Parental choice ‘is an illusion’
BBC NEWS | Education | Parental choice ‘is an illusion’ Mr Sinnott referred to the way in which the Education Secretary, Ruth Kelly, has repeatedly stressed the importance of parents, since she took over the job in December. “Schools and … Continue reading
DfES Refuses Woodcraft Folk Grant
DfES Refuses Woodcraft Folk Grant There’s a page with campaign materials, if you feel that you’d like to get involved in supporting a group that only needed a grant of £52,000 to continue working for peace and friendship across the … Continue reading
It’s Dora day
And boy don’t I know it! very jangly stuff, isn’t it? So Big is concentrating on her language studies today, although we did read another couple of stories in the red nose reader when we turned Dora off for lunch. … Continue reading
Been a long day
Sounds like it ought to be a song. Anyway. Hauled myself out of bed before nine this morning, with some determination that I would spend quality time with the children. And I did – it was variable, but there were … Continue reading
Finished
Second reading book: Goldilocks These Read it yourself books seem to be just about the right level. The inane guesses without actually looking at the letters in the word are still rather irritating though
Shoe-string Publishing
Shoe-string Publishing I’m gonna try some of this stuff with Big. I specially like the Feeling poems. Wishing I hadn’t chucked out that ancient desk diary now…but I’ve a feeling last years is still about somewhere
“What has happened to parental responsibility?”
Well you’ve got to laugh really, haven’t you. Contrast this with the last few months announcements about more and more “childcare” (the important thing is for mothers to get back to work, isn’t it?). Cheeky sods!
Kath’s pizza recipe
Putting it here so I can find it again 300g strong white flour (bread flour) 1 sachet of dried yeast Dessertspoonish of sugar Dessertspoonish of salt Mix into a dough with warm water, about half a pint possibly. I do … Continue reading
Poetry and sneaky maths…oh, and a ramble.
today Big read another page of her book (we’re onto Goldilocks now) and I teased her into listening to some poetry. She really enjoyed it – after we’d done the first poem, with her sitting, eyes closed, to listen, she … Continue reading
The best laid plans
of mine never work out. We did some maths (Exeter of course ), we did some reading, we did more Studydog. You’re right Merry, that’s starting to look like a blogring curriculum! We didn’t do a whole lot else. I … Continue reading
