This Science lesson is for young people who enjoy using the internet to watch videos, learn facts and do online tasks. If your young person does not enjoy using the internet just do the hands-on activities. You may also like to check out the Science activities for groups 8 and 10 which are more hands-on.

Claude Monet – Art
Have you ever wanted to capture a moment? To make a picture that shows not just how something looks, but also how it makes you feel? Meet the man who did just that!
Claude Monet was a famous French Artist who was fascinated with colour and how the light changes throughout the day and at different times of the year. He loved to paint outside and enjoyed spending time in his garden. Can you have a go at creating one of his famous paintings? The painting is called ‘ A bridge over a pond of waterlilies.’
For this craft, you’ll need some masking tape to make your bridge shape. You can cut your tape in half to get thinner strips. You want to form the shape of the bridge using your masking tape.
Continue building your bridge using small sections of tape for the slats. Try to add five or six of them across the bridge at equal intervals.
Time to finger paint! If possible use a rainbow of colours to dip your fingers in, then dab your finger multiple times to start filling in the page.
Try to overlap your fingerprints to blend the different colours together.
Continue to fill in your canvas with finger print until the whole page is covered. Don’t worry about painting over the tape. As long as it’s securely fixed to your paper the paint will not seep through. Once you have covered the whole sheet of paper, leave it dry. As tempting as it is to peel off the masking tape, allow it to dry first.
Once dry, carefully remove the masking tape to reveal your masterpiece!
Singing with Connie
This is what to do today.
Sing along to the Happy song. You can clap your hands in time with the music or use some wooden spoons or shakers like we have done in previous songs.
Do you still have your shakers from last week? Have fun again singing and shaking along.
Our new Health and well being character this week is Healthy Harry and the song is My body, Your body. Try and sing along to the chorus and see if you can follow the signing as well. We will be singing this song at singlong on Thursday and Assembly with Tracey on Friday.
And relax – we’ll finish with Somewhere over the Rainbow.

Feelings! We all have them! Sometimes it is hard to make sense of them!
Talking, writing or drawing a picture of how you feel can help you feel better.
Try to draw a picture or write down how you are feeling.
Draw your own picture of the Colour Monster or you can print out the picture below with your parent or carer and, even put it up in your room. Find the link below.
How many different ways can you colour them?
Have a lovely day.
