Message from Miss Cook

Dear Parents/Carers,

We are as keen as you are to get back to normal and I promise to let you know more information as I receive it.

We understand how frustrating it is to have a lack of information about schools from the government and only wish we could be emailing with more solid news.

Our PM is addressing the nation today, which we hope will give us more of an insight, but I suspect it will still be vague and not give us the definite answers we are looking for.

I know the Local Authority are asking individual Headteachers for their thoughts by way of returning to school, but I also know that as yet, there is no set date or clear plan around which year groups will return and how that will be implemented.

In the meantime, I would like to thank you for all of the support you are giving children at home with their online learning, as we know that this will make such a difference to them as we return and catch up.

Kind regards,

Miss Cook

Year 1 Guided Reading

Hello everyone,

Today’s Guided Reading is a little different as it is all about Peter Rabbit! You can read the first part of the story with a grown-up at home and have a go at answering the questions. Then, there is a link so that you can listen to the whole story being read. After this, there are some lovely, art activities that you may like to have a go at over the next few days – we can’t wait to see what you get up to! 🙂🐰 📚

Evidence me

Some of the nursery team are experiencing technical issues currently with the evidence me app.  One possible solution is to ensure that everyone using it at home has agreed to the latest update.  Hopefully, in that way we’ll be able to view and respond to your observations.

Numicon Challenge

Last week I posted support in using Numicon at home and attached paper templates. I hope you enjoyed having a play with them.

So today, I have a little challenge for you. You can of course do this at your leisure.

Can you use bricks (stackable toys work well but you could use any toys) to represent the value of the Numicon?

My suggestion and example today is to use one piece of Numicon. How many ways can you use your bricks to show the same number? Can you touch count the Numicon for support?

I have chosen number 4.

Thursday’s phonics challenge

Morning!  Today I would like you to extend yesterday’s activity (pick a picture on phonics play) by creating your own words to go with real objects.  Please could you start by collecting some objects with very simple names such as hat, cup, pen, bag (you will only need about 4 or 5).  They need to be words in which each sound can easily be heard.  When you have done this ask your child to write each word on a slip of paper, help them to sound out each letter carefully using the pat and stroke the arm technique.  Once they have created a label for each object can you mix them up and see how quickly they can match them to the objects.

Thank you to everyone who has been sending in videos and photo’s of the challenges they bring a smile to my face!

Thursday 30th April – Year 1 Maths

Hi everyone,

You have been working really hard this week to divide by grouping. Today, you are going to practise a different method of dividing – sharing. I’m sure this method will be more familiar to you as we have had a little go at this in school before! There is a White Rose video to help you with today’s lesson – please find the link on the information sheet below.

Year 1 Home Learning Thursday 30th April 2020

Last day for practising those Jumping Orange Words! Today once you have watched your phonics video from Miss Hammond, you could play Quickwrite! All you need is a clock or watch. Ask mum or dad to give you one of your spelling words and your challenge is to see how many times you can write it down in 20 seconds. We have played this in class before – what is the record for the most words you can write in those 20 seconds?

A massive well done for the fantastic story writing at home. We are so proud of the effort you have put in this week.

We are approaching the end of our Enormous Turnip week, and therefore after your hard work writing this week tomorrow’s activity is a reading activity. Attached are some reading comprehension questions to prove how well you know and understand the story. There are three different level sheets so you can choose how easy or hard you think the questions should be for your child (there are also answer sheets for parents as a guide). These can be copied onto paper if you do not have a printer.

The Enormous Turnip Reading Comprehension

Don’t forget the 2do’s on PurpleMash too.

Well done everyone.
