From the start line run to marker one and back, then run to marker two and back, run to 3 and back then 4 and back, then first to finish line is the winner. If only one child doing it you could time them to get quicker each day. You can adapt this activity. Eg a) Run to marker 1 and back repeat b) Hop to marker 1 and back repeat c) Use a football and dribble to marker one and back d) Football kick ball to marker 1 and back repeat e) Bounce ball to marker 1 and back f) throw tennis ball at marker 1 and back g) throw tennis ball in air repeatedly as running to marker 1 and back h) if you have a hockey stick dribble hockey ball to marker 1 and back I) shoot hockey ball to marker 1 and back.

An acrostic poem has the word you are writing about down the page so the letter for each sentence spells out the word. We decided to do ours about football, but you could do it about any topic your child is interested in. One day we wrote down lots of words associated with football. Second day we wrote the poem. It was a joint effort. Third day we typed up the poem. We would love to see your poems so please share any you do.
We went for a walk in our garden and farm lane with clipboard, ruler and tape measure. We measured small objects in nature, but you could measure objects in the home. We measured in cm and converted to mm as well. 1cm = 10mm so good for practising 10x table. We are going to draw a barchart of the lengths.
