Fantastic Home Learning!!

Good morning!

Well done to Rae and Misan for their brilliant home learning over the weekend.

I am very happy to see you are growing your sunflowers. If you have a ruler at home you can measure to see how many cm they have grown. I have planted mine but I don’t think they are growing yet! I will have a look and upload a picture later.

 

 

Keep up the amazing work you are all doing. We are very proud of you all! Missing you lots!

Good morning Reception,

How are you today? I hope you have had a lovely long weekend with your families.

On Friday we celebrated VE day. It has been 75 years since the end of the second world war! This was a very very long time ago. Watch this link below to learn a little bit more.

Can you make your own VE day poster? Here are some examples.

Phonics

Ok so today I want you to revise our ch and ng sounds.

Don’t forget to be able to write our seances carefully we need to be able to form all of our letters the right way. Use this sky writer game to help you.

Can you read, cover, write and then check these sentences? Remember to count your words in your sentences to make sure you don’t miss any out. Also remember your finger spaces between words.

Good Morning Reception!

Hello,  I hope you are well. It has been lovely talking to you and your parents this week on the phone. We are glad that you enjoyed your little treat and are enjoying playing with the balloons (even though some have burst) .

Thank you to Misan for sharing your super work ! You really are a little learning star !

Tomorrow is a bank holiday  (VE day) so we will do our P.E. today.
Let’s get moving.

 Phonics Time

Time to look at the phoneme ee and revise some tricky words.

Challenge:

Can you write a sentence using  both  words ? Say the sentence first then write it down.

  1.  king        feet                          (e.g  The King had smelly feet.)
  2.  see      man
  3.  feel      happy
  4.   to   meet

Home learning pack activities:

You will find these activities in your  home learning packs .

Put the pictures in the right order.

Share the story with somebody you love over the weekend.

 

Hungry Caterpillar Maths

Please continue to follow the White Rose Maths activities .
There is an activity for each day linked to our story, The Hungry Caterpillar.
Click on the image below for Summer Term Week 3 Activity 4.

You can work through the activity together after you have watched the slide show. It is all about sharing.

Challenge:

How many bears can you count ?  If you shared these bears with your mummy, how many bears would you each have ? ( You might like to use your own toys to help you  share equally)

Extra  Tricky Challenge:

Rae and Kulsum  have some bears to share.

Which numbers of bears can they share equally so that there are none left over?

Can they share one bear equally?  Can they share two bears equally?  Three bears?  Four bears…?

What do you notice about the numbers they can share fairly? It might help to look at a number line and mark the numbers that do share fairly onto it. Do you notice a pattern?

Home learning pack activities:

You will find these activities in your packs to complete over the weekend.

Time to relax with a story

 

Have you planted your sunflower seed ? I wonder how tall it will grow?

What do plants need to grow ? How do you feel when you look at a sunflower ?

Who made them ?  How can we look after the trees and flowers around us ?

“God our Father, teach us to love all that you have created and to care for the earth as your gift and our home.”

 

 

Have a lovely long weekend.

Take care.
