Virtual Show and Tell - Wellbeing Wednesday - Connect

Date: 6th May 2020 @ 9:18am

Today's theme is 'Connect.' You and your child can choose to interpret that in whatever way you want. I look forward to seeing your photos either via Twitter @clifford_school or you can email me at nbrown@cliffordallsaints.sheffield.sch.uk.

Here are some Connect ideas:

Connect with other people

Connecting with others can be really challenging in the current circumstances as we are ‘social distancing’ and need to physically stay away from people. However, we are in an age of digital connectedness and we can use the internet and phone to keep in touch with each other. We can even invite family and friends to socialise via video apps, including FaceTime or Whatsapp.

You could write a list of the people to make contact with every day/every few days.

• Ask them how they are
• Share what you have been learning
• Write them letters, or a poem
• Read to them of have them read to you
• Draw them pictures
• Send them photos

(This is a good opportunity for children to practice their handwriting as well as their keyboard skills.)

Special Grown Ups - This is a helpful BBC article about keeping children safe when they are using the internet to 'Connect.' I hope you find it useful.  How kids can stay connected during lockdown

Much love and stay safe,
