English Put yourself in the mind of a new born chick on a farm. It is Spring and you are exploring the farm with your friend, a newly born lamb. Use your strong adjectives and powerful verbs to write a short story about your adventures on the farm. Think about what time of year it is, what other animals there are, how big everything is to you.

Geography
Does Spring look the same in every country? Have a look for some images of Spring in different countries around the world. You could look at the UK, Japan, South Africa and Australia.
Create a table or a collage to show the differences between Spring in each country you pick.

Science
Plants start to begin their life again in spring. Have a look in your garden or in a park at the new flowers budding. Draw a picture of a flower and label the parts that you can see.
This can include the stem, petals and stamen .
You need to research the parts online or in books to find out the names.

Maths
When you are next out in a shop count how many different types of Easter Eggs there are. Now think about how many people you live with. If you had to share the Easter Eggs among you all, how many would each person get and how many would be left over?

Topic
How is Spring welcomed in the UK? Research different events that take place in Spring. Why do we have the bank holidays? What happens to the clocks and why? What happens in the more rural (countryside) areas? Write a short paragraph about what you have found out.
