Good morning everyone.
On Thursdays we start the day by doing PE.
How about three of the action songs for warm up?
Hi all,
Here is a fun activity to get you moving.
Ask an adult to help you spell your name and do the exercise for each letter. What other words can you spell.
Good morning song:
The days of the week song:
The weather song
Don’t forget Lorna’s sign of the day! Search for sign of the day.
Time to get outside!
What about a walk?
Walking is a great exercise for your body and mind and it’s not every day we have this good weather in Scotland. To make it more interesting we can agree some challenges with our family like, count the trees we see, count the birds, look for bears and rainbow in windows, we can even make it a competition who can see more birds, trees, red objects etc. Just remember you should always walk close to home (no driving) and keep social distance.
Another great idea would be to Join Vicky community group page we’re going on a bear hunt, just follow the link:
