Well done to everyone for another great day. Take a look back over the week and be proud of yourselves. I certainly am proud of all you are achieving at home.
Below there are lots of ideas and activities to keep you busy for the next few days.
VE Day Celebrations ??
Our Time in History –
Tomorrow, VE Day represents 75 years since the end of World War Two in Europe, a very important part of History. Just like 75 years ago, we are making History right now and maybe in the future Lockdown 2020 and the Coronavirus will be studied in schools across the world.
In school we have created a display board ready to display some of the fantastic things you have been doing during home learning. We would also like to add an area devoted to diary entries to document this time in history.
Please have a go together completing this together.
Just like The Hungry Caterpillar diary, can you write a diary entry or draw a picture to document this time in History. How do you feel? What have you been doing? What has life been like? You could pick today or a day you’ve had this week to draw and write about.
FS1 you could draw and tell your grown up – they could write what you say. FS2 you could draw and write words or a sentence or two over a few days.
This will be a special snap shot in history for years to come! I have attached some templates below if you can print and wish to use them, alternatively this would look great on paper.
Please email me your finished pictures and diaries but keep these for when we are back at school for the school display.
VE Day ??
Tomorrow is VE Day which stands for Victory in Europe. This is when World War II ended in Europe after nearly six years at war and it was a time of great celebration. Today I am posting lots of activity ideas that you might like to complete today, tomorrow and over the weekend to help you get ready for the celebrations.
To celebrate, there were many street parties across the country. Why not have your own ‘street party’ at home with your family. Tomorrow it would be great if we all dress in red, white and blue or you could put some army colours or clothes on ready for the party. You could do lots of things to make it special:
Why not start by making bunting to hang in your house or garden. Templates below or use plain paper to make your own.
Colour some flags or design your own ?? There is a Union Jack flag 2Do on Purple Mash you could have a go at too.
Design your own VE Day poster or have a go colouring one in.
Make a party hat – template below or use the template as a guide.
Have a go at making your own Spitfire glider.
World War II colouring
Make your own war heroes medal
Wartime recipes
Why not learn a new VE Day dance – take a peek at Class 3’s blog – Mrs Altoft has posted a special VE Day dance done by Clare from Dancestars (do you remember Clare that came into school?) Have a go joining in. I’m sure you’ll love this.
The Hungry Caterpillar ?
Please also have a go at finishing your hungry caterpillar diary and completing what he ate on Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday and any other activities you would like to. I would love to see your finished diaries and any more activities you do.
Purple Mash 2Do’s
I have set some 2Do’s that you might like to have a go at linked to VE Day. The Hungry Caterpillar 2Do challenges are still there if you want them too if you haven’t yet completed any.
I hope you enjoy completing some of these activities. Please remember they are there if you want them, you could do 1 of them or pick a few. Have a fab long weekend and enjoy making, creating and joining in with the celebrations. Don’t forget to send me pictures of your celebrations and what you’ve been making or upload them to Evidence Me. I would love to see a picture of you tomorrow on VE Day in your red, white and blue or army colours.
Have fun. Miss Mc
