Additional Activities

If you have time at home and would like to do some additional activities, then here are some suggestions for you! Please note that these tasks do not need to be handed in.


- Complete a word work activity of your choice with some of the words you are working on this week. 

- Write a recount about something you have done. Make sure you include the orientation, sequence of events and your opinion. 

- When you are reading a good fit book, write down some of the interesting words you read and look them up in a dictionary. If you don't have a dictionary at home, use an online dictionary



- Find an interesting way to practice your times tables - maybe create a dance, rap, or short video! Look at mathletics.com 'Times Table Toons' for a fun way to sing along!

- Login into Mathletics using your Mathletics username and password and play Mathletics Live. See if you can challenge yourself to a higher level! 



- Choose a large word, such as 'Refridgerator' and see how many small words you can find inside that word - for example fridge, rate, reef. Try again a week later and see if you can find even more!

- Curl up with a good book - remember  voracious readers become great readers!



- Cooking is actually science! Help Mum or Dad cook a meal and notice what happens to the shape, taste and texture of the food you are cooking. Does the colour change? Why do you think this happens?
