PE Lesson 6th May 2020

Hi everyone,

Today we are going to have an Orienteering adventure. Orienteering is the science of making and read maps.

Follow the link bellow with an adult or same one that can help and after watching video one try to draw a map of your bedroom or garden or somewhere you know well. If you really confident, why not go to for the house or maybe your street?

Let’s Get Started Orienteering

Once you have your map try to hide a “treasure” mark it on your map and see if someone can find it. Then swap places, ask someone else to make a map or use your map and to hide a “treasure” so you can find it.

Why not make it a game? Hide your treasure and time each other to see who is fastest to find them.

Once you tried that watch video 2 and try to draw a course on your map. Ask for someone to follow your course and see if they can, then change places again.

Again, let’s make it a game. Let’s see who can follow the course the quickest, if you make a mistake you add 5 seconds to your time.

You can draw a course in your garden, your house or if you’re really brave go for a course around your street / neighbourhood.

Hope you have fun with Orienteering and next week we will have some orienteering games.

 

Make music using the Real Percussion app

This is a free app for iPad and is one I have picked out from quite a choice. The main screen shows a percussion kit of different drums and symbols that can be played just by tapping on them.

Like a drum kit from GarageBand, but taking up much less space on the phone or tablet, you can play as it is to make rhythms on your own or with someone else sharing the screen. As you get better, you can play along with some of the free sound loops, purchase more in-app or play along to something on the TV, radio, YouTube or wherever.

science – have a go at making bubble snakes

DIY Sock Bubble Blower!

You’ll need one of each of the following materials to make a bubble snake:

  • 1 empty plastic bottle
  • 1 clean sock
  • 1 rubber band
  • 1 pair of sharp scissors

How to Make Your Sock Bubble Blower

  1. Wash your plastic bottle so it’s safe to put your mouth on it.
  2. Use your sharp scissors to carefully cut the bottom end off of the bottle. Discard the piece you cut off.
  3. Slide the sock over the end of the bottle so it’s stretched tight across the hole. It shouldn’t cover the drinking end of the bottle.
  4. Secure the sock to the bottle with a rubber band.

How to Make Bubble Snakes

This is the fun part! The bubble snakes are simple to make once you have your sock bubble blower assembled.

  1. Dip the sock end of the sock bubble blower into your bubble mix.
  2. Make sure the sock is saturated with the bubble solution.
  3. Point the bottle downwards and gently blow into the drinking end.
  4. Play with your homemade bubble blower!

remember to take photos please

Health and wellbeing – play in the garden or outside, on your balcony

let’s finish with relaxation, 

I hope you have a really good day!  Sophie
