Reading Challenges

Using one of the books from Bug Club have a

go at the first task, focus on the quality of your presentation as well as the content of

what you create:

Based on the title of the story and front cover only, make as many predictions about what you think will happen in the story as you can. Record them in the crystal ball and then share your learning with us on Seesaw. Choose a topic that interests you – anything at all! Using a non-fiction text find and record key facts about your chosen topic. Find an online text if you don’t have a book on your topic. Fill in the padlock with your topic title and then write key facts that you find out about them on the keys. Share what you have found out with us on Seesaw!

Creative Task 1: Art – Graffiti Have a look at the profile of graffiti artist Keith Haring below. Then have a go at one, two or all of the tasks (don’t worry if you don’t have all of the resources to have a go at all of them): 1. Using chalk outside,

or large paper and pens/paint, and a willing member of your family have a go at creating some life sized Keith Haring style pictures. Draw around one of you in an “active” pose and then add some movement lines and doodles around it.

2. Colour in some of the people in the Keith Haring artwork below. Remember to use bold, bright colours and stay within the lines.

3. Have a go at sketching a page of your own

Keith Haring style movement people. You could add some colour too.

We cannot wait to see your creations on Seesaw!

FRI Friday Challenge Explore outside and collect various natural materials such as sticks, leaves, pine cones, etc. Measure your own body parts in centimetres (cm) and compare your findings with the items. For example, how many pebbles does it take to measure your arms? How many leaves does it take to measure your leg? Discuss why results may vary.

Have a careful think about the following questions and maybe discuss them with your family:

Why is it important to keep learning from our ancestors?

What does an archaeologist do? How did people survive in the Stone Age? Were animals important to Stone Age tribes?

Science: Your task is to create a game of Snakes and Ladders to incorporate everything that you have learned about healthy eating and digestion. Below you can find my example. Use it as a base to create your very own one. You might want to choose some fun facts to add to your game. For example- How long does an average person spend brushing their teeth? I had to research that myself. Apparently it takes around 38.5 days. We cannot wait to see your games and how successful you were in playing them on Seesaw!
