Afternoon Activities

Good afternoon Primary 3!

Have you enjoyed some of the sunny weather today?

 

Our big question this afternoon is: Are plants alive?

What do you think? You could take time to discuss this with an adult at home.

Watch this clip and find out:

Can you list the reasons why plants are classed as living things? What makes plants and humans alike?

Use this knowledge to search your home or garden and list living and non living things you find.

Alternatively, use this sheet to help:

Living and Non Living activity

If you cannot print you can use this as an ‘eye-spy’ activity rather than colour coding.

Art

This is a very famous painting by Vincent Van Gogh. Do you have an idea what it might be called? Why not research it and find out.

Can you create your own painting in this style of a plant around your home? This style of art is called ‘still life’. If you are struggling to find something at home to draw, you could recreate Van Gogh’s painting in your own way!

We would love to see your pieces of artwork.

Enjoy the rest of your day,
