Lockdown learning!

From normal life to lockdown learning was a very quick jump, so our first couple of weeks were mini lesson looks at life in lockdown. 

First of all we looked at the positives for each of us and for the world with this pandemic,  such as less pollution, and people uniting with things such as sharing ideas, teddy bear hunts, singing together etc.

We looked at how people learn when they are stopped from regular learning - such as Isaac Newton in the Great Plague of 1665, where he was forced to leave University and retreat to his family home. It was during this time that Newton came up with many theories and observations - such as gravity (the famous apple incident), splitting light, and calculus. 



We thought of ideas that we might like to try while at home - a perfect time to do some learning or thinking about something that interest us! 
Stay safe in your bubbles everyone.
