Sunday and Monday

March 26th, 2007 by Sarah

On Sunday afternoon we went to visit a couple of the kids’ favourite places, the House of Marbles and Cardews Teapottery, at their request. Took a number of photos which are all pretty much the same as the last lot I took there – kids painting pots, and kids in the play area – all pretty boring if they’re not your own kids really. Thankfully no-one fell off any swings this time though ;)

Came home and played marbles, and the children had a crazy idea to play with cornflour gloop as well, so they did that, and successfully covered the kitchen and downstairs loo in it as well :roll:

Monday was a non-event of a day really, although Joe and I did defeat one big bad boss in Sonic at teatime so that was good (only one more to go now!). We did some maths and music workbook pages, and also played with pattern blocks and talked a bit about symmetry, reflections, rotations and translations. Reading and comprehension activities over the past couple of days have taken the form of hint guides and walkthroughs for Lego Star Wars and Sonic!

    Those top 5 photos make it look like the girls have jaundice – really odd colour or is it my monitor?

    Really odd light in the pottery and I couldn’t be bothered to edit them, I think.

    I think I left the white balance set on the wrong thing.

    Maybe not though… it says it was on auto! I blame the camerawoman.

    Yeah me too. Mind you those F30 ones at the bottom look pretty good ;-) apart from the subject in the second one.

    Yeah, I should stick to the f30!
