Have fun exploring these sites and trying out some of the activities! Pick a topic or theme that you are interested in (e.g. a country, an artist, an animal, a time in history, a planet, a famous person, a recipe, how to skip …..) and find out all about it using some of these links. You can even do a project on it if you like! Feel free to email me pictures of your work. These are only suggestions and include lots of creative and enjoyable activities to keep away any boredom
