Year 1: Lesson 3 – Add together and find a part https://whiterosemaths.com/homelearning/year-1/

You (or an adult) can check your answers after you’ve completed the activity

Extra Activity:

DIY Forest School – have a go at making a bug hotel! Here’s a video and a step by step guide to making one https://www.rspb.org.uk/get-involved/activities/give-nature-a-home-in-your-garden/garden-activities/build-a-bug-hotel/

Bug hotels are a great way of recycling things you would normally throw away while also providing all kinds of creepy crawlies with somewhere to live! If you have a go at making one I’d love to see the end result and you’ll have to let me know if any bugs come to visit!

Remember Friday is VE Day and if you’d like to commemorate it in any way have a go at one of the activities on the activity menu.

Keep safe, keep smiling!
