Art
Today you are going to be making 3D art sculptures - let your imagination run wild! We will pick a few examples to share in on our Wall of Fame Gallery of Super Learning.
Here is a link to the activity: https://www.tate.org.uk/kids/make/sculpture/make-paper-sculpture
Take a few minutes to explore the Tate Kids website - it's like a virtual school trip to an art gallery!
Maths Game
As we are learning about money, Today's maths game comes from Natwest Bank. How good are you at getting the cheapest prices? Try this Space Trader game where you need to see which is the best deal for the space supplies.
