Man of the match

General

Elliott was really good today and did his homework without any fuss.

Activities

Before football this morning Elliott did his English homework (writing 9 sentences based on some cartoon action scenes) and we agreed he could wait to do his Maths homework with Granny in the afternoon. Then it was off to football where he did brilliantly in both halves both in defence and right midfield and I thought deserved his man of the math award. Afterwards he told me that he'd told Sally he was a better midfielder than defender but we also talked about how he was good at playing defence as well so it was good that he got to play both. I'm also really happy that Sally has now seem him play well as I suspect she didn't realise how good he was before.

When we got home Granny and Grandpa were waiting for us and we went to The Three Frogs for lunch where Elliott had chicken nuggest, beans and rice and eat all his meal. he also had chocolate popcorn for desert. He was really good during the meal and showed off his Match Attax binder and played Granny at Match Attax. After lunch we walked back home and he did his maths homework with Granny (plotting some bar graphs) before it was time for Granny and Grandpa to go. After they'd left we went to Sainsburys to do food shopping and again he was really well behaved. When we got home from shopping we had crumpets for tea before bath time, 10 minutes with the iPad and then bed time.
