Colouring is a versatile activity that can be used in a few different settings. If you don't want to use it as part of a lesson, why not allow children that finish their tasks early to have a go at a colouring sheet?
This will keep them occupied while the rest of the class catch up. We've mentioned rainy play already - why not print out these back to school colouring sheets and stash them with your board game collection to give the children a choice of activities if they can't get outside?
These PDF colouring sheets can also be used at home - they would be ideal to get the children used to the idea of going back to school and could also act as a conversation starter with their grown-ups. This will allow them to voice any concerns they might have.
