Hello Rang a Sé,
I hope you all had a lovely bank holiday weekend and enjoyed the sunshine. I have sent home some work for you to complete this week including a new project to work on- World War II. I know some of you already know a lot about this topic so I look forward to reading your projects and learning some interesting facts about the war. If you can, email me your Native American projects. I have already received some and they look amazing! I can't wait to read them properly this week. How did you get on with Active HOME Week? If you completed the challenge chart, either printed or made your own, email it to me at [email protected]. I have certificates for those who completed the challenge. Remember our bodies need to be active for one hour a day, so even though the Active HOME Week challenge is finished, try and keep up the good work and get lots of exercise this week. It should be easier now the sun is shining! This month we have some biodiversity activities we can explore. These include a minibeast hunt, identifying trees, bird watching and art activities. Click on the link above to get some ideas of fun outdoor activities you can try and learn how you can explore the natural environment around you. As always, below their are daily challenges, life skills, websites and some suggested additional activities.
Have a lovely week,
Ms. Maguire
