Hi Year 1,

Year 1 Home Learning Thursday 23rd April 2020

Hello,

Your learning today is to watch Miss Hammond’s video and practise the flashcards along with her. Then can you practise your final ‘ing’ game for this week before the test tomorrow! This is a slightly different game to the game I posted the other day. It states it is for 3 players but will work just fine for 2 as long as an adult is helping.

-Adding-ing-Board-Game

For Literacy today I would like you to pretend to be the Farmer who planted the Enormous turnip! Yesterday you wrote questions to the farmer, so you know what a shock it was for him to discover that his vegetable had grown so huge. Perhaps your family could interview you pretending to be the farmer to get you into character. Then could you write a diary entry as if you are the farmer? (We looked at how to write diaries when we learnt about the Great Fire of London back in school.) Can you include what you felt like as you describe the events of your day?

You can do this straight onto paper and post to the blog, or you could type it if you would prefer using our blank diary template posted in your 2do’s on PurpleMash. I can’t wait to read your writing.

 

 

Year 1 Maths – Wednesday 22nd April

Hello Year 1,

We hope you are enjoying learning how to tell the time and that you are beginning to understand how to read o’clock times. Today, we are setting you a challenge to begin to understand half past times too. As a special treat today, you are going to do your Maths learning with a little boy called Dougie – who is learning to tell the time at home, just like you! Dougie and his parents made a video that you can watch, and practise completing the challenges with a clock (this could be a real clock, toy clock or even the clock that you made in yesterday’s lesson)! 🕑🕦

We hope you enjoy becoming a time expert – just like Dougie! 🙂

Year 1 Home Learning Wednesday 22nd April 2020

For phonics today, can you continue to use Miss Hammond’s videos to practise your flashcards. Practise your spellings and then as a little challenge, can you put these words into a sentence?

By now you will be more familiar with our story this week ‘The Enormous Turnip’. Your Literacy work for today is to interview the farmer who planted the turnip seeds. His day turned out very extraordinary, when he discovered his vegetable had grown so large and he needed all that help to pull it out the ground!

Can you think of questions you would like to ask the Farmer? For example, I would love to know ‘How many bowls of soup did your wife make out of such an enormous turnip?’

We learnt about questions in school a few weeks ago, so don’t forget to finish your question with a question mark and keep practising your neatest cursive handwriting. We would love to see your questions to the farmer on the blog.

Year 1 Guided Reading – Tuesday 21st and Wednesday 22nd April

Just like before the Easter break, we will set some Guided Reading work for you to have a go at, at home. Sometimes these activities may take a little bit of time, so please don’t feel like you have to rush or complete them all – the most important thing is that you enjoy listening to and sharing some lovely stories at home! We will send out Guided Reading work twice a week, so you will always have a couple of days to listen to the story, talk about it and maybe have a go at some of the questions and activities. 🙂 📚

For today’s activity, you have two dinosaur stories to listen to! The first one is an e-book, which can be listening to on Youtube, or here:

The Dinosaur That Pooped a Princess – I Spy and Read

Year 1 Maths – Tuesday 21st April

Hello Year 1,

We hope that you all enjoyed starting to tell the time yesterday. Today, your job is to recap on yesterday’s learning then build your very own clock! You can practise making o’clock times with your clock and use it to play a game of What’s the time Mr Wolf? You may also like to print or create your own clock cards to play a game of O’clock Snap!

Keep the clocks that you make so that we can use them again later this week!

Enjoy! ⭐🕑

Year 1 Home Learning Tuesday 21st April 2020

I hope you enjoyed your learning on Monday. I noticed lots of fantastic art creations. Also some great puppet performances of our new story this week.

We are continuing with our ‘The Enormous Turnip’ work this week, with a focus on remembering familiar and repetitive stories.

Can you read it again today  – this time encourage your child to recite as much of it as possible by themselves. Then can you order the story in the correct sequence? You can do this by cutting out and sticking the sequencing pictures attached. Or you make your own by simply drawing a grid on a piece of paper and your child could draw their own lovely pictures in order themselves. You could try to label what is happening in each picture.

Also, look out for an Enormous Turnip themed jigsaw on your PurpleMash 2do.

 

Finally, for phonics today please continue to practise this week’s spellings. Here is a game you could use or copy for fun too.

Keep an eye out for Miss Hammond’s great phonics video’s too. Well done everyone.

Year 1 Afternoon Project Ideas

Hi everyone,

I hope you have had a lovely first morning back at home school! Lots of you have already sent back some brilliant work on PurpleMash.

As Miss Hailey has already explained, each week will now have a theme and a teacher from Newdale will be setting afternoon work for the whole school, based on that subject. This week is Art week and I know lots of you will be excited to get started on some super art projects.

We have also put together some additional project ideas for Year 1, that you may like to have a go at in the afternoons, alongside the themed work for that week. Remember, these are just ideas – they do not all need to be completed, they are there for you to pick and choose the ones that take your fancy and are feasible for you and your family. In school, our topics in the Summer term would be the ‘Seaside’ and ‘Growing/ Planting’, so we have tried to create some projects based on these areas.

Afternoon Project Ideas Summer 1

We would love to see any of the afternoon projects get up to, on the homework blog. Remember, you can also contact us via the Year 1 email address if you would like to share any work or have any questions for us!
