Reading

Please share the story of The Rainbow Fish. If you have this story at home then please use the book. If not, please watch this video of the story https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BzZuS3ze-Ho. Once you have read the story or watched the video, please discuss the vocabulary on the word mat below, and complete the two activities below.  

 Activity 1

Complete the Rainbow Fish book review. Discuss with a grown up what you like about the story, and how you think it could be even better. Can you work out the hidden message behind the story?

 Activity 2

Can you fix the Rainbow Fish sentences? Words are spelt incorrectly, and they are missing capital letters and full stops. Use the story to help you.

 

Maths

Can you complete the capacity activity using the document below? Your grown up's at home will use the questions to challenge you. I have also included a vocabulary mat to discuss the key vocabulary. If you think you are ready for it, try the challenge cards too (they are trickier!)

 

Songs

Here are some of the songs that we enjoyed together when we were in school. Please revisit and recap our previous learning. They are very helpful, and I bet you could show your grown up's what you know. 

 

 

 

History

Florence Nightingale - The Lady with the Lamp

Use the powerpoint below to learn about Florence Nightingale. 

Here is a video about her life too https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jONlz7vaMnU.

Listen to this song, I know you will enjoy it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HH6F20CojK4

Discuss with a grown up who she was, why she was famous, and what you think about her. Please complete the 3 activities below.

 Activity 1

Use the sorting cards to discuss with a grown up whether the pictures were 'before' Florence Nightingale arrived, or 'after'. If you do not have a printer, discuss them on the screen.

 Activity 2

Complete the hospital improvement activity. Match the problem that Florence Nightingale was faced with, to the solution she found. What do you think about her as a nurse?

 Activity 3

Florence Nightingale used a lamp when nursing as there was no access to electricity back then. Create a lamp of your own, and test it out in the dark. Try to be creative, and send me a photograph of your finished piece.

Once you have finished the above 3 activities, you can choose some of these below if you wish.

 

Art
