Snow day activities  ❄️⛄️

Create a snowman without a head then take turns hiding behind the snowman as if your head belongs to the snowman. Take photos of each other!

Make the biggest snowball possible whilst creating a maze or interesting pattern of grass to follow afterwards. Does the size of the snowball relate to the length of the path created?

Look at different things covered with snow and guess what they are. Go back once/if the snow has melted and see if you recognise the feature.

Animal and birds leave trails and tracks. Find some tracks and follow them. What animals do you think they are? Do this quietly to avoid frightening any thing or anyone.

Is it possible to create an icicle? What do you think? What conditions are necessary? See if you can find examples of icicles to help you out with this task.

Write an imaginative story about snow. Who are the characters? Where is it set? What is the drama in your story? How does it end?

Whatever you decide to do keep safe and warm!🧣🧤❄️

Good morning.

Today for Maths and Numeracy you can continue to work through the sumdog and Heinemann Active Math games allocated on both sites. Also you can make up word problems using addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, all centered around the snow.

In Literacy, as it is World Book Day, read your favourite book. Also design a front book cover and back blurb cover for a book about Ancient Egypt. It can be a factual book or fiction. Remember the features to include on the cover: tile, author and picture. Also, on the back there has to be a brief summary of what the book is about. Continue to work on your spelling words, doing the spelling activities we do in class.

If you can get out of your door today, I have another snow challenge which I hope you will take up. Your challenge is to make a 3D snow structure of the sphinx and if possible send the pictures to me the same way as some of you did yesterday. They were really impressive!!

Enjoy the snow day. Keep safe and warm!!!!

Thursday 1st March snow day learning:

Use sumdog or education city to practise maths.

Sumdog can also be used to practise spelling – click where it says maths on left hand side and change to spelling.

Today is World Book Day so find a cosy space to read your favourite book.

Create your own Mr Men/Little Miss character about you and illustrate them. For example, I would be Little Miss Hockey. You could even write a story about your character.

Find all the clocks you can in your house and look at the different types. Where are they? Can you draw/make a clock in the snow?

Can you use a ruler or measuring tape to find out how deep the snow day?

Make a list of all the different jobs you can think of. We will use your lists as a starting point for our new health topic.

Look back at yesterday’s post for some other snow activities you could do.

Please send any photos via message to me – I would love to see what you have been up to and will share any photos I received with the rest of the class later today. We will also discuss any of the tasks you have completed when we get back to school.

Again, be safe but have fun! ❄️☃️
