Happy Half Term! This week is half term and for that reason there will be no

set home learning until Monday 1st June.

We hope that you enjoy the half term as a family. Play games together, read together, eat lunch together and

enjoy your exercise outside safely.

We’d still love to see photos of what you have been up to so keep emailing them in.

the beach, etc.

Circuits - Draw pictures of different exercises (such as star jumps, hopping, squats) Put the pictures around the room or garden and get everyone in your family to visit each picture and do the exercise on the picture.

Dance Routine - Choose your favourite song and then think of a fun dance routine to the song. Can you teach the grown-ups in your house the routine?

Make a Bird Feeder

Making this bird feeder is lots of messy fun!

1. Smother a cardboard tube in peanut butter (no added salt and sugar versions are suitable for birds).

2. Roll it in bird seed and thread some string through the hole. You may want to put some sticks at the bottom for the birds to perch on.

3. Tie it up in your garden where birds will feel safe eating.

How many garden birds will you spot?
