Hello everyone,

Instead of our normal learning activities, this week your home learning is going to be a Health Week.

We have created some fun, healthy activities for you to try at home. Each day we will post some activities, you don’t need to do them all, but we’d like you to try a few each day.
We hope you will all enjoy the health and wellbeing focus this week.

Remember: your brain works better when your mind and body are healthy!

😊Now choose at least one of the activities below:

🌸Using materials of your choice, create a positive/ motivational message. This may be a single word e.g. SMILE using stones. Take a photograph of this and share on Twitter, Email or blog.

🌸Are you feeling a little worried just now? This lovely book might help answer some of your questions. It’s called Everybody Worries by Jon Burgerman: https://en.calameo.com/read/000777721945cfe5bb9cc?authid=Xu9pcOzU3TQx

Can you create your own little book for other children to read similar to this?

🌸Make a list of 5 things that make you happy, 4 things that worry you, 3 things that make you laugh, 2 things that make you sad and 1 thing that makes you angry. Discuss these with someone in your house. It’s important to share our emotions.

🌸We are heading for summer so think about ways to stay safe in the sun and think about a way you can share this information. You could:

-Make a leaflet

-Film a television advert (this could be using real people or using teddies or drawings with stop motion or using just drawings alone, be an illustrator.

-Write an information leaflet

 

🌸Put away all technology and talk to a family member. What is the best part about being at home? What is the worst part? Talk about any worries you might have.

🌸If you can, source natural objects like leaves, twigs & stones, see if you can arrange them to spell the names of family members or recent common words or make a symmetrical design.

🌸Concentrate Colouring. Colouring is a good way to help you relax and give your brain a rest. Choose a picture, colouring book or use Youtube tutorials to create your own drawing. If you have the materials handy, you could try your best to colour within the lines, even add in shading of using your writing pencil. I will attach one I tried to do, using a pencil. Of course, you do not have to use tutorials, you can just use your imagination and practise your skills. Try listening to your favourite music while you draw/ colour.

🌸You can always create your own task which helps you to stay healthy in your mind and body.
