• Watch this video on symmetry https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/clips/ztpyr82
• Play this symmetry game https://www.topmarks.co.uk/symmetry/symmetry-sorting
• This is very simple to set up, and great for children to just get started with exploring the concept of symmetry.
Firstly If you have one, attach a mirror to the side of a box. Then the children can explore building, making or drawing things next to the box. It is a great way to symmetry taking place spontaneously.
The next step is to create half of something, and let the mirror complete whatever you have done by creating the other half. A simple example would be to create half a face. Look in the mirror, and you’ve got a whole face. Half a butterfly would be a good introduction. You could draw it or use loose parts to create it. Just have an experiment and see what they come up with!

Other:
• We normally do P.E on a Wednesday. So today I’d like you to make an obstacle course outside/inside like on Ninja Warrier. What can you use to travel over, under and through? Time yourself to complete the challenge using a grown ups phone or watch. Can you improve your time? • A weekly science experiment that could be done at home? Freeze a toy in a bowl of ice. Try and help it escape.
• https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p01ftdw0 watch the clip. Can you draw a picture or collage to show what happens next. You could even make up your own version.
