“DO’S” (try to do these every day) |
1. Reading – choose “read to self” or “listen to reading” 2. Get active (see suggestions below “Get outside/get active”) |
| LITERACY
|
–WRITING A STUFFIE STORY – Lots of wonderful stories are written about best friends. We love Elephant and Piggie stories so we thought it would be fun this week to choose 2 of your stuffies and write an adventure about them. Make a plan for your story: What is the setting? What is the problem? How do they solve their problem? When you are ready to write a story, you can make a little booklet or create a comic strip of your story. Remember that pictures are a very important part of the story too! (We had made a video for this but we are having technical difficulties loading it.) – READ a story to your stuffies –PRINTING PRACTICE-write your first and last name 5 times, then write the first and last name for everyone in your family -EXTRA PROJECT: ANIMAL RESEARCH: Choose your favourite animal. With an adult helper, look online to answer the following questions about your animal. Where does it live (habitat)?, What does it eat?, What does it look like?, What is special about it? If you have time, draw or create an art project about your animal. |
