Subject	Activity
Moment of Calm	Start the day off by calming your mind here. (This should have been posted yesterday to coincide with the Feast of the Annunciation, but I didn’t want it to go to waste)
PE	Stay fit and healthy by checking in with The Body Coach each morning at 9.00 at https://www.youtube.com/user/thebodycoach1
Prayer	Visit https://cafod.org.uk/Pray/Lent-Calendar and reflect on today’s Bible verse and message.
Spelling	Play with family members: Word Wager • Put this week’s words into an envelope/wallet. • Share the tokens (could be anything – beads, buttons, stones) equally between the group. • One person in the group will be the caller, and will read a word for you to spell. • If you think you are able to spell it, bet as many tokens as you like. • If you’re not sure, you can sit out of that round but you still have to pay the pot one token. • Betting players write the word down. • Those who spell it correctly divide the pot equally. Reminder of this week’s spellings: accommodate accompany access accuse accost accrue accuracy accomplish accumulate accentuate
