Summer Days
I’m looking for a hot spot.
A what spot?
A hot spot.
I’m looking for a hot spot.
To lie out in the sun.
I’m looking for a hot spot
To play and have some fun.
I’m looking for a hot spot
To hit a ball and run.
Oh, I’m looking for a hot spot.
A what spot?
A hot spot.
I’m looking for a hot spot
Now summer has begun.

Summer Song
By the sand between my toes,
By the waves behind my ears,
By the sunburn on my nose,
By the little salty tears
That make rainbows in the sun
When I squeeze my eyes and run,
By the way the seagulls screech,
Guess where I am? At the ……!
By the way the children shout
Guess what happened? School is ……!
By the way I sing this song
Guess if summer lasts too long:
You must answer Right or ……!
John Ciardi
Good luck!

Life skills – tidy up your rooom. Remember to put toys and games away after playing with it
Maths – Puddle Jump
Take a small stack of paper and cut a puddle shape out of several at once to save time. Write numbers on it. Depending on your child you can write 0-5, 0-10, 10-20, , 0-100 by tens, 50-60….
The idea is jump on puddles following the right order. Once on the puddle kids can jump on it as many times as the number shown.
