Good morning P4B, I hope you are all doing well. Here are today’s tasks, only do as much as you can. The weather is looking a bit better today so hopefully we can get outside for a while. Have a super day!

Family game – You can play this with anybody in your house who is free or you can do it on your own.
Word Race: Each family member will need paper and a pencil for this game. Family members take turns to choose a word for play by randomly choosing a page of the dictionary and then finding the longest word on the page. The chooser writes the word on a piece of paper and places it in centre of table. Each family member then writes as many words as they can, using only the letters of the chosen word, in a two-minute time limit. The winner of each round is the person who finds the most words. You can increase the difficulty of the game by making a rule that words must have at least four letters.
