Man of the match

General

Elliott was mostly good today. He did get a bit upset about doing his homework after promising he would do it today but after we had a chat he calmed down and got on with it.

Activities

Football was really good today and he seemed to really enjoy it and was proud of being man of the match and how he'd played. He was very proud to have played for the whole game and even though they lost I think it might be the best Panthers game yet in terms of teamwork and football played. After we got home he watched some of the Arsenal verses Chelsea game while we had ham sandwiches for lunch.

Yesterday he'd said he would do his homework after lunch and football today so after lunch I asked him to do his homework. He didn't want to and spent quite a while getting slowly more upset about his homework but after we'd had a chat he did the English part (writing instructions for how to make a Lego model) and we agreed he could do the Maths part after your birthday lunch tomorrow. Then we watched some rugby and tennis while he played with Lego Star Wars toys and then we went outside to play rugby. While we were outside Amelia from the flat below us (who is in Year 5) came and started playing with him and it wasn't long before he was showing her his Match Attax and Star Wars toys and they were getting on really well. Then it was time for sausages and mash for tea and he had some broccoli as well. After tea it was bath time and then he read some of his new "Horrid Henry's Revenge" school book and recorded it in his reading record himself. Then it was time for a bit of iPad watching before bedtime.
