Good Morning and Happy Wednesday!

Wacky Race – Mr Beswick
Can you create your own Wacky race? Add obstacles, find different ways to move and compete against the clock? Can you beat your time?
School Jobs:
Reading: Read all about the amazing Mo Farrah and have a go at the comprehension attached. I mentioned JK Rowling's new book 'The Ickabog' yesterday to some of you. Have a look here https://www.theickabog.com/read-the-story/
Times Tables: How are you getting on with TT Rock stars? I know some of you are really improving. Remember there are lots of different games if you need a change from Rockstars. I have attached some loop cards if you like them. You could use the blank cards to make your own loop game.

Message from Mrs Powell
Honesty
My Mum used to tell me and my brothers and sister this story. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gKWktweAZb0 What would you have said to the boy to help him?
Jesus told his disciples a story to teach them about honesty. He told them about a rich man who had a manager, and the manager was using the man's money for himself. When the rich man discovered that the manager was wasting his money, he called him in and fired him. After telling this story, Jesus said to his disciples, "Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted with much, and whoever is dishonest with very little will also be dishonest with much."
If you and I make sure that we are honest in the small things, then we can be sure that we will be honest in the big things. If people know that they can trust us in small things, they will know that they can trust us in the big things too.
Dear God
Please help us to remember what Jesus taught about honesty and help us to be honest in every situation big or small.
Amen.
