Activities for 5 days!

Hola. ¡Feliz miércoles! Happy Wednesday!

Hoy vamos a presentar la tarea de cada día hasta el domingo=Today we will present the task of each day until Sunday.

WEDNESDAY 8TH APRIL 

Beluga whales or The Great Wall of China?

WEDNESDAY	a) Watch the beluga whales at the Georgia Aquarium There’s a beluga whale webcam set up at the Georgia Aquarium, so you can see what your whale friends are up to at anytime.
	b) Virtually tour the Great Wall of China You don’t need to leave your home to explore some of the most historic monuments out there—the Great Wall of China included.

A) The beluga whale is an Arctic and sub-Arctic cetacean. It is also known as the white whale, as it is the only cetacean of this colour. The beluga's body size is between that of a dolphin and a true whale, with males growing up to 5.5 metres long and weighing up to 1,600 kg. They haven´t got a dorsal fin which allows them to swim under ice with ease.

B)The Great Wall of China is an ancient wall in China. ... It was built to protect the north of the empire of China from enemy attacks. It is the longest structure humans have ever built. It is about 21,196 kilometres long, 9.1 metres wide and 15 metres high.

Bake cookies or Make a pizza?

THURSDAY	a) Bake together Cookies, cakes, brownies. Anything! Baking is a great lesson in measuring, ingredients, and of course, making delicious goodies.
	b) Make a pizza It’s miscalleneous toppings night. Whatever you have laying around the house, that’s what’s going on your homemade pizza!

A) 

Flour, butter and sugar. It's like red, yellow and blue. Mix them together and you get all kinds of things!

B) 

Start with the dough shaped in a circle. Then roll out and sprinkle with flour. (Comienza con la masa en forma de círculo. Luego extiéndela y espolvoréala con harina). And time to build your pizza. Add the pizza sauce. Add the cheese. Add the veggies.

Play dress-up or Play hide and seek?

SATURDAY

a)Play dress-up It never gets old.Fancy dress parties are great funkids who love to dress up! Wearing the right clothes, whether it’s a crown, swirling ballet skirt or builders hard hat, seems to complete their pretend play. The secret to the very best dress up costumes lies in the child’s imagination. If they feel the costume is right, then it’s perfect! Get inspired with this link: https://kidsactivitiesblog.com/14169/simple-dress-up-ideas/

b) Play Hide and seek The rules are that one person (the "seeker" or "it") closes their eyes and counts while all the others hide. Take it in turns to be "it".

SUNDAY 12TH APRIL 

Have an indoor picnic or play cards?

SUNDAY	a) Have an indoor picnic Grab a sheet, whatever food you have, and enjoy a living room picnic (without the ants). You can even play that memory game at the same time: “I’m going to a picnic and I’m bringing…” Each person takes turns remembering (in order) what everyone is bringing and then adds one thing each turn.
	b)Play cards Rummy, War, Go Fish, Solitatire, Uno, Old Maid… Any game you can think of!

A) Have an indoor picnic:

Picnics  are synonymous with the outdoors, and it’s certainly a pleasure to eat at the beach, in the forest, or in a park, but it’s not always possible.

B) Play cards: there’s one type of game that can be fun for all ages: cards! Have you ever stopped to think about how many different games you can play with the same set of cards? It’s amazing!

Esas fotos luego, después de Semana Santa, las publicaremos en el padlet. Les prometemos diversión, y aprendizaje, porque las instrucciones están en inglés y tendrán que apañárselas para entenderlas (dictionary, translator...).
