Hello
Year 4!
I
hope you are all safe and well and have settled into the routine of working
from home. I am missing you all lots, but it has been great to receive emails
from many of you showing me all the great work you have been producing.
Remember you can email me any questions you have during this time. Below I have
listed a few optional activities for the children to complete over
Easter as I appreciate that this is a different sort of ‘holiday’ and it may be
helpful to have a few things to keep you all busy. You do not have to do all of
them, choose which ones you would like to do. It may be a nice thing for you to
do with your family. Try and stay positive and enjoy this very rare opportunity
to be with your family at home, and enjoy each others company. Stay safe and
keep in touch!
Activity
ideas:
- -Keep a diary (if you haven’t already). This can include pictures of you
and your family and all the activities you have got up to in this time. This
will be great for you to reflect on when you are older.
- Clear out your old toys and consider donating ones you don’t play with
anymore to charity. (You may have to hold onto them until after this all finishes, but this is a great time to get organised).
- Bake some hot cross buns. You can find lots of recipes online, but this is one I have used https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/easy-hot-cross-buns. Research why we have hot cross buns at Easter.
- Create some Easter acrostic poems. Use different words associated with Easter as a starting point.
- Learn to tie your laces!
- Learn to tell the time.
- Create and design some Easter cards.
- Complete some Easter inspired Zentangles! Instead of drawing a square draw an Easter egg shape and complete your zentangle design in there.
- Follow Joe Wick’s workouts on YouTube. Try and design your own workouts, and include some dance moves too.
- Do some research on the Rainforest. Think about the questions we generated as a class, and all of the things you wanted to find out about.
- Go on scavenger hunt on your nature walks, or in your garden. There are a few ideas of different scavenger hunts below but you can make up your own ones. Please email me if you would like copies of these.
Remember to keep reading, keep up with Mathletics, and practising your timetables using the games at the top of the blog.
Stay safe!
Miss Bradford
