Year 2 Daily Challenge - Friday 24th April 2020

Friday 24th April
Good morning everybody,
I hope you all enjoyed learning about Saint George yesterday.  I saw some amazing Coats of Arms Shields.
Today's activity is Design and Technology.  
The Minibeasts need your help!  They need you to design a Minibeast Hotel for them to live in.  Look at the following web site to find out what a Minibeast Hotel actually is.
Imagine you have sticks, leaves, old plant pots, twigs, empty plastic bottles that are clean, string; you might have some of these things in your garden or in your home.  How might you use these resources to create a home for a minibeast?  You can draw and label your Minibeast Hotel in your Homework Book.  I have attached some photographs of examples.  If you have some of these resources at home you might want to actually make one.  If you do make a Minibeast Hotel think very carefully about where you will position it in your garden so that minibeasts can access it easily.  Check your Minibeast Hotel every day and record a tally of how many minibeasts and what tyoe of minibeast is using your Hotel.  You might like to send a photograph of your Minibeast Hotel to Class Dojo.

Have fun designing!
