Good morning!
Did you enjoy yesterday’s story? Today we recommend you try some of the related activities if you haven’t done so already.
Please look below to see today’s other suggestions.
As it’s Friday and the end of our first week apart why don’t you think about the days of the week?
You could sing our song to get started
(to the tune of The Addams Family)
Days of the week (clap clap)
Days of the week (clap clap)
Days of the week, Days of the week, Days of the week (clap clap)
There’s Monday and there’s Tuesday,
There’s Wednesday and there’s Thursday,
There’s Friday and there’s Saturday,
And Sunday ends the week.
Days of the week (clap clap)
Days of the week (clap clap)
Days of the week, Days of the week, Days of the week (clap clap)
or join in with one of these songs online:
or Miss Paterson’s favourite:
Your adults could ask you what day is today/tomorrow/yesterday to challenge you.
For those of you who are beginning to recognise letters and sounds, maybe your adult could write the days of the week on separate pieces of paper. Then you could try to use the starting letter/sound to identify each word before putting them in order.
Why don’t you make a simple list or timetable with ideas for next week? Maybe you could choose one activity each day and your adult chooses another.
Reading
Collect all your books from your bedroom and around the house. Can you be like a librarian and sort them out? Maybe you will put all the bear stories in one pile and all the dinosaur books in another. Or perhaps you will put all the stories together (fiction) and all the information books (non-fiction) in a different pile.
As you sort remember you favourite stories from when you were little. Do you like all of the books now? Which ones do you like/dislike? Why? Could you make a pile of books to give to your sibling or to pass onto other children at another time?
Where else can you find stories or information? If you haven’t already done so, consider downloading the BBC Sounds app for audiobooks, listening activities and music.
