Something to practice!
The boys in Year 1 are learning to log onto the computers at school independently using their own username and a password. School usernames are typically your first initial with your surname – remember, no capital letters or spaces.
For example:
username: gthomas
password: year1
Miss Thomas says, “Try practising this on a computer at home to get nice and fast at typing!”
How to Make a Paper Model of the Titanic
On April 14, 1912, on her maiden voyage, the mighty Titanic sank in the cold Atlantic waters off the coast of Canada. In the many years since, the Titanic has been remembered in song, cinema and numerous books. You can build a model of this famous White Star ocean liner using simple materials. Making a paper model of the Titanic is a great project for personal enjoyment. This model takes advantage of shoeboxes to create a three-dimensional base.Some models are extremely detailed and museum quality.
