Tuesday – Task 2 (Science)

How does sound travel?

and a beater. Put rice on the drum and beat it, what happens to the rice? Why do you think

it happens?

Wednesday – Task 3 (PE)

Yoga and mindfulness

Yoga poses are a great way to strengthen our body and make us feel calm.

After a quick warm up, can you try some of these?

Challenge: Can you create your own

yoga pose? Which parts of your body

does it strengthen?

Thursday – Task 4 (Music)

This is a traditional French nursery

rhyme called Frere Jacques. Can

you learn it in both French and

English?

Once you have learnt the song see

if you can clap the beat. How can

you change the song? Maybe you

could add actions or clapping.

Challenge: Can you turn the song

into rap using a different beat?

Friday – Task 5 (Music/Art)

Today, you are going to listen to a piece of music and create some art at the

same time! Listen to the following piece of music, whilst listening make lines

on paper (they do not have to look like something) that feel like the music.

Once you have finished add some colour. Does this piece remind you of the

music?
