PSED & C&L

Look or listen to the story again.

Display the colours: yellow,, blue, red, green, black and pink.

These can be coloured pens, circles or objects of that colour and the emoji faces from yesterday.

Read a description of the emotion from the book and ask your child to find the matching colour and face. Ask your child to show you the corresponding expression –e.g. show me a happy face/an angry face…

 Maths & PD

You will need:

a large bowl with a thin rim

clothes pegs

The challenge is to pinch the pegs onto the side of the bowl.

Give the children a challenge : Can you get two pegs, can you clip 1 peg, etc

When you have finished count around the bowl taking the pegs off.

We are going to create a delicious rainbow treat for our colour monster.

You will need:

Plain biscuit (rich tea or similar)

Icing sugar and food colouring (you choose)

water

Assorted sweets

Marshmallows

What to do:

Think how your monster is feeling. Choose your food colouring.

In a small bowl, mix 1/4 cup of icing with 3-4 drops of food colouring.

Spread the icing  on top of your biscuit using a spoon .

Using the marshmallows give your monster eyes.

Finally give your monster a face using the different sweets.

Eat and enjoy!

PD - Cotton Ball Crawl

What’s needed: Cotton balls & a spoon

How to play: 

This is tons of fun and involves moving a pile of cotton balls from one room to another using a spoon. The cotton balls will easily fly off if they aren’t balanced just right. See how many balls they can get from one place to the next under a certain amount of time.

Group Activity: Encourage a race or just allow each child to do their own thing and see how many cotton balls they can move from one side of the room to the other.
