It’s Friday! I hope you have enjoyed your week. Please remember to send us in some photographs of the activities you are doing at home. We love seeing and them and seeing you!
Below are some learning activity ideas for today. Remember we do not expect you to do all of them, pick and choose some you like and feel free to adapt and change them to suit you, your circumstances and your preferences.

Foundation subjects
| Subject | PSHE | |
| Learning Objective/Focus: | To explore daily routines | |
| Main input (explanation) | Talk about your day. What happens in your day that you do every day and what changes? | |
| Activities MUST | Draw pictures of things you do every day, i.e. every day routines. | |
| SHOULD | Put your every day routines in order, thinking carefully about whether you do them in the same order every day. i.e. get up, have breakfast, get dressed. | |
| COULD | Take one of the activities you do every day, i.e. cleaning your teeth. What do you need to do to complete this activity? Write a set of instructions for completing your chosen activity. | |
| Extension Activity Ideas | Most activities you do will be repeated every day of the week such as getting up, eating, cleaning your teeth. If you were to create a sequence for Monday to Friday, you would write the same list of activities five times! Can you create instructions to save repeating the full sequence five times for a day to cover the whole week? |
I hope you have a great day and enjoy your weekend.
