Write a weather report for your class
 
Before writing a weather report, watch or listen to a weather report 
 
Provide an overall view of the weather condition of your area. This will include the wind speed and direction,  temperature and if rain or snow is expected.
 
Find out what time the sun rises and sets to complete your report.
 
Don't forget to use weather symbols to illustrate it too. We can't wait to read it!
Pick blackberries
 
Where to pick Blackberries grow in all manner of hedgerows across the country.
 
How to collect  Use a large container if you want to pick lots of berries. It’s always good to leave plenty for other pickers, too. 
 
How to store Try to keep blackberries dry and they should last for two to three days. Don’t worry if you’ve picked more than you can handle – blackberries are easily frozen too and can be cooked straight from the freeze. Freeze them on a tray in a single layer so they don’t all squish together.
 
What to cook Find a recipe for blackberry crumble or jam, make it and tell us how it tasted.
