   Look out of the window and observe what you can see (focus on the colours that you can see in nature, the leaves on the trees/ground, the growth of flowers).  Draw a picture of what you can see and label it, e.g. the flowers are growing, there are leaves on the ground, ect.
5. RE
   Jews believe that God made the world in a week, making special things on each day.  There are 7 days in a week (count to 6) and on each day he made amazing things like light, sea, animals and people. But what about the 7^th day? On the 7^th day, God did something very, very important. Do you know what it was? He had a rest. He did nothing! God wasn’t tired – his work was complete. Because God rested, Jews rest too. They believe God was showing them an important part of living – to rest and relax. So, on this day, Jews celebrate, and they also rest. It’s a very special day called Shabbat.
