Screen-Free Fun

Find a notebook or piece of paper for these activities:
- Write  about your easter weekend (who you saw, what you ate, what you did). Bonus  points for every  adjective   used in your writing.

- Shadow Drawing: On a sunny day, place a toy on a piece of paper (or even the pavement) and trace its shadow at 10:00 AM, 12:00 PM, and 2:00 PM. How did it change?

- Next term we will be learning about ANZAC, do some of your own research on ANZAC to share/report back to the class. Who can get the most interesting facts?
