We are going to perform Shakespeare's play Twelfth Night as a class.

♦ WEDNESDAY

Watch the Twelfth Night video from yesterday, choose a character to look into... 

Think about them, how do they feel about them-self and their lives and compare it to what others may feel about them. 
 

(You can even draw a character like mine to show what they think of them self inside and what others think on the outside) 

Electricity can be dangerous! 
 

What did Dexter Duck do wrong in the video below? 

I’ve written a list of ‘rules’ that we must be careful of when being near/using electricity.

Top 10 rules for electric safety

To play it safe around your home, remember the rules for using electricity the right way.

1. DON'T plug a bunch of stuff into one outlet or extension cord. It could damage the electrical system in your house or even cause a fire.
2. DO make sure all electric cords are tucked out of the way. Pets might chew on electrical cords, and people might trip and fall.
3. DON'T ever play near or on a green transformer box or climb the fence around an electrical substation. If a ball or pet gets inside the fence, ask an adult to call Alliant Energy or your electric company - they'll come and get it out for you.
4. DON'T yank an electrical cord from the wall. Instead, pull from the plug. Pulling on a cord can damage the appliance, the plug or the outlet.
5. DON'T fly anything like drones or kites near power lines or substations. A kite and its string may conduct electricity - sending it right through you to the ground.
6. DO ask an adult for help when you need to use something that uses electricity.
7. DO look up and look out for power lines before you climb a tree. The electricity can go right through the tree branch - and right through you.
8. DO have an adult put safety caps on all unused electrical outlets. Covering outlets will also help save energy by stopping cold drafts.
9. DO watch out for power lines when using a ladder, chainsaw or other outdoor equipment.
10. DO keep electrical stuff away from water. Most electrical accidents around the house happen when people use electricity near water.

Make a poster showing the top 3 things that you need to be aware of when using electricity.
