Sorting rubbish
- Over the next few days have a look at different items of rubbish. Which can be recycled?
- What material are they made from? e.g. paper, plastic
- What do you do with things that can't be recycled or reused?
- Test your knowledge with this sorting game
Make something from recyclable materials
- There are lots of fantastic ideas on this website.

- Or you could make a poster telling people how they can help take care of our planet.
Maths:Oak Academy - Measuring
- In this lesson you will measure using non-standard units.
- Did you know you can measure the length of something using your hands or feet or even toy cars?

- You can try the measuring activity below. If you don't have a printer you can just draw round a shoe a couple of times on paper and then cut out.
- Using a ruler - at school we are going to look at a small centimetre ruler and have a go at measuring some objects we can find like a glue stick or pencil.
