Do you know all the words?

Mrs McConalogue certainly didn’t. 🙈

A couple of weeks ago we worked on developing our throwing and catching skills and today we are going to work on our football skills! Time to grab a ball and head outside.

Activities

Placing the ball between your feet pass it from foot to foot, how quickly can you do it?

Use the inside part of your foot  to kick your ball to another person

When someone kicks the ball to you see if you can stop it with the inside part of your foot

Use jumpers to set up a goal and see if you can kick the ball into it

Set out a row of cones/stones/jumpers and use your foot to weave the ball in between them

Challenge!

Have a go at Keepy Uppies!

WOW! Looks like Cillian has been busy creating the perfect picnic for his toys and brother. Well done!

You’d better go in disguise!

For ev’ry bear that ever there was
Will gather there for certain,
Because today’s the day the
Teddy Bears have their picnic.

 

Today we are going to plan our very own teddy bears picnic!

Activities

Write invitations to invite your teddies to the picnic

Plan and make a selection of healthy foods for them (and you!) to share

Look out a picnic blanket or towel to sit on

Think of games that you could play at the picnic

Read We’re Going on a Bear Hunt

Count how many teddies you have

Choose your favourite songs to sing at the picnic

Challenge

Remember to tidy everything away when you have finished!

 

 

Lots of communities around the world are going on bear hunts.

Simply place a cuddly bear, or a drawing of one (just like Miss Prior’s little boy), in a window of your home so when families go for their daily walk, they can hunt for bears.

How many bears can you find? 🐻
