Please find below a couple of activities to keep your minds active (during the 'Big Freeze')and prepare for our new dinosaur topic.

1) Find dinosaur books to bring into share at school. These can be non-fiction or fiction.

2)Make some big dinosaur footprints or a 'snow dinosaur' in the snow and take a picture to use in a digital collage.

3)Tell me about your favourite christmas and snow experiences. Either write down your ideas yourself or get an adult to help you.

4) Can you solve this dinosaur problem? (Adult assisted) Please use props (real dinosaurs if possible!) to help solve this problem together.

-There were 8 dinosaur footprints in the snow.

a) If these tracks were made by some Tyrannosaurus Rex dinosaurs (2 legged,)how many dinosaurs were there altogether?

b) If these tracks were made by some Stegosaurus dinosaurs (4 legged,)how many

dinosaurs were there altogether?

5) New words to learn:

Reception-I, no, the, go, he, she

Year 1-wanted, said, was, called

Depending on how long the snow lasts I will continue to put up little activities for you to work on at home.

Thank you and enjoy the snow
