Weekend Tasks

27/3/2020

 
How has your day been?

I hope you have been able to finish your story and your maths.

Here are a few optional activities you might like to try over the weekend.

Create a piece of art showing the view from your bedroom window.
You can do this using pencil and shading, pens, colouring pencils, paint or even collage from old magazines/newspaper.

Follow the instructions below to make a car out of a plastic bottle.
You will need the help of an adult for part of this task.
You will need:
  • A plastic bottle with its top
  • 4 other bottle tops of the same size (for example milk bottle lids)
  • String
  • 2 straws
  • Tape
  • Something sharp to pierce the bottle top, such as a pin. (When using this make sure you have an adult with you.)
Where possible see if you can use some recycled materials.

Instructions:
  • Pierce a hole through the centre of each bottle top. You might need help from an adult to do this.
  • Using tape, attach a straw to the underside of the bottle (one at the front and one at the back).
  • Thread a piece of string through the hole in one bottle top. Tie a knot in the end on the inside of the lid, then screw it in place on the bottle.
  • Place a bottle top onto the end of each straw.
  • Pull the string to move the car.
Here is a video of a boy called Dennis making the car, https://vimeo.com/34563622.
​
Help to make a meal.
Offer to help prepare and clear up from one of your family meals over the weekend.

Make a training circuit
Create a training circuit in your house and encourage everyone to take part. At each station complete a different exercise for 30 seconds. Here are some examples of activities you could do: star jumps, running on the spot, bunny hops, lunges, stepping on and off a step.

Photos
For all of the above, it would be great if you could send in some photos that I can share with everyone else next week. We would all love to see your artwork, your bottle cars, the meals you have helped with and your training circuits.

I hope you all have an enjoyable weekend despite the changes. I am hoping to make a cake and will be going to the allotment to look after my mum and dad’s vegetables. I’ll try and take photos of both so I can share them with you next week.

Take care, stay safe and don’t forget to keep washing your hands!!
