Happy Earth Day 

22nd April 2020

Here are some Earth Day activities that you could have a go at while your at home

• Plant some seeds and watch them grow (sunflowers are great and they attract bumble bees and other insects also once they have flowered the seeds can be used to feed the birds)
• Create an information poster telling people how they can recycle and what can be recycled (Recycling is our science theme for this term)
• Make a picture using items in the garden (sticks, leaves, stones etc). See if you can make a rainbow out of these.
• Create some craft with items from around the house (cardboard boxes, paper plates, toilet roll tube, milk bottles etc). Here are some ideas of what you can make.

Please find above a few home learning activities to do over the next two weeks.

See how many of these activities you can tick off in your garden
