Hi 5.3 and 5.4.  We hope you are really well and looking after yourselves.

Our theme this week is Nature/Our World.  Please take some photos of you having a go at one of these activities and send them to us.  We’d love to see what you have been up to!

Mindfulness: a mindfulness walk.  What can you see and hear on the video?:

This is another lovely video of nature for you to watch. We hope you enjoy it:

https://www.topmarks.co.uk/learning-to-count/ladybird-spots

Maths 5.3 – Order the numbers at the coconut shy!:

https://www.topmarks.co.uk/ordering-and-sequencing/coconut-ordering

Looking at nature- Nature is the living world around us … cats, birds, squirrels, bugs, trees, plants are all living things.

Task- Take a look outside.  Name six living things you can see.  If you can take a photo of them and send it to us that would be wonderful.  If you like using the computer, you could find pictures of six different living things and make a nature page. We would love to see it!

Quiet Time. Why does quiet time have to be inside?  If the weather is ok, you can create a little quiet space outside in the shade.  Grab a blanket, pillows, and whatever else you need to get comfy.  Bring and read some books.  You can also colour or do (almost) any other quiet activity you would normally enjoy inside.

If you can get out this week  take a nature walk. Nature walks can provide great fun. Have you ever collected rocks leaves, and flowers during a walk? Look and listen to the birds, watch and the squirrels. You can even pull your child in a wagon or stroller if that makes the walk easier. Just enjoy the scenery to get the full effect.

Go on a minibeast hunt outside or at the park. Can you see?…

  • a worm after a shower
  • a bumblebee looking for nectar
  • a spotty ladybird exploring the grass
  • a slimy snail in a dark damp spot
  • a butterfly basking in the sunshine?

Here is a wonderful activity when the weather is ok.
