Good morning!
At the end of our first week following the holidays it is Mrs Mills who inspires today’s post. Today is her last day at work for a while as she begins maternity leave in anticipation of welcoming her new baby. We are sure you will join us in sending our best wishes to her family.
Mrs Mills has been moved by the hopeful message of the rainbows many of you have created so that is today’s theme!
- Begin by looking at these rainbows. What do you think of them? Can you describe them, using some of your five senses?
2. Make a rainbow picture by drawing, painting, sticking or using chalk outdoors.
3. Find items around the house and sort them by colour. How many do you have of each? Which group is the largest/smallest? Can you lay them out on a table or the floor to make a rainbow? Can you use a phone or tablet to take a photo of your rainbow? Maybe your adult could share it with the other children on Teams.
4. You can make fun but simple rainbow food. Why don’t you make a fruit/vegetable kebab or plate using as many different coloured foods as you can? Did you know that the different colours mean that there are different kinds of vitamins and minerals to keep you healthy? That is why some people say we should ‘eat a rainbow’. Can you try to eat at least three colours of the rainbow every day? Maybe you could make a picture or chart to record the healthy things you are eating.

You can make easy rainbow toast by mixing a little food colouring in some milk. ‘Paint’ the coloured milk onto a slice of bread in any way you like then gently toast. Bon appetit!
5. Find a book about rainbows or different colours and read it. Suggestions include… The Rainbow Fish, The Day the Crayons Quit, Elmer…
6. Watch/listen/read below to some of these :
