Saturday 20th June 

After 3 thunderstorms last week I wondered if you knew much about how thunder and lighting happen. 

Check out the links below to find out. 

Once you know could you:

Design a poster?

Write an explanation text?

There are lots of videos and activities for different natural world topics on...

https://www.wild-days.org/

A parent will need to create an account. It is free to join and at the moment lots of the courses are free to support you with learning at home. 

Let me know how you get on if you sign up. I am thinking of trying some at the weekends with my family. 

Tuesday 19th May 

Have a look at the section on teeth. What do you remember?

You could also make a poster about the different types of teeth and what they are for. 

You can write a set of instructions about how to brush your teeth. 

Write about what happens at the dentist - perhaps an explanation to reassure younger children. 

Education City has released some free resources for science learning.
