April 2014 – Happy Easter

The problem with creating resources around St George, in order to celebrate England’s national day on the 23^rd April, is that you can’t easily go out and photograph him.  Most of the old images show the poor dragon being run through with a lance and bleeding badly.  Eventually we did find an image where the poor beast is only being trampled under the revered saint’s horse.  I think Puff the magic one would be a happier image for the younger ones!

Shakespeare, that quintessentially English bard, has to have a mention this month since he was born, and died, in the month of April.  We’ve prepared a Fact File on the man that we hope the children will enjoy.

Over the holiday period we will put up a selection of past resources in This week’s and Next Week’s resources, since we know that the break varies a little from place to place.  Paid members may prefer to make their own selection from the archive.

After the break I hope you will be refreshed.  Hopefully our website will also be refreshed – watch this space.  I look forward to sharing the improvements with you next month.
