Art. Tate kids and BBC Bitesize

 

Hi everyone, have look at the Tate Modern website and choose a project in the Tatekids section. https://www.tate.org.uk/kids

Another great site to find new projects is BBC Bite-size. There are several categories including painting, drawing and collage. https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/subjects/zyg4d2p

If you make an image, be it a painting, a drawing or a sculpture take a photo. Send it in to school via email and we can show everyone on the Blog.

Orange Class Monday 27th April

Good morning everyone!

Lets get started with our Morning Circle Time!

 

How about some maths?  Try some of Clare’s Maths Challenges this week.  Can you do two every day?

 

 

 

Time for Jobs

Which one will you do?

 

Now for some Reading:  Today we are looking at Fox’s socks

 

Can you answer the questions?

Time to get outside!

Lets get going.  Do you feel artistic? Lets get the  chalk or paint out!

Paint pebbles

If you don’t have paint you can use chalk to colour in your pebbles

You may have already seen the gorgeous pictures on social media of pebbles painted in bright rainbow colours.

It’s such an easy activity to do and because you can do it the garden you can keep all the mess contained.

All you need are some different coloured poster paints and some rocks – it couldn’t be simpler.

Failing that you could also use chalk to create some colourful designs.  Take some photos and send them in.

 

Colour a rainbow on your garden slabs or on the pavement

You can chalk a rainbow on the slabs in the garden

While you’ve got the chalk out, why not draw a rainbow on your garden path.

The patio can provide a huge canvas for the kids to colour on and the great thing about using chalk is that it will easily wash off.  You could even play noughts and crosses or draw a giant chalk hopscotch.

 

On Mondays we have P.E.  Today we will have P.E. with Gerry

Excellent work today, now that you are all sweaty having worked hard and had some exercise you can now relax and give your body and mind some rest for a few minutes.

To do so your next challenge is to listen to your favourite relaxing song in a comfortable position and close your eyes until the song is finished.

Not to worry if you can think of any there are a whole list of warm up activities and links to children’s music on the “Alternative to Movement” post.

Thanks for your hard work and stay safe.

 

Now it’s time for some Yoga
