Wednesday’s phonics post

Good morning everyone!

Your phonic challenge today is again to help children blend the letters in a simple word in order to read them.  It’s another great phonics play game, please select the game “pick a picture” at phase 2.  This gives the children a word on the screen and three possible objects.  Please can you help your child blend their sounds by tapping on their arm for each sound and then stroking it to blend them together.  I call this patting and stroking the dog!   It may seem strange but it seems to work.  If there are any unfamiliar letters please go back to Mrs Giodano’s post which shows the children the letter cards.

Have fun!

Year 1 Home Learning Wednesday 29th April 2020

Hello Year 1

Can you practise your Jumping Orange words today as a 4-in-a-row game? Use the game attached or create your own grid for fun.

Well done for working hard on your stories so far. We are looking forward to seeing the completed versions.

Today you may choose to finish these as it was quite a lot to write all in one day! Please continue and complete your stories today either on paper or on your 2create a story.

If however, you did complete the story then head on to PurpleMash for your Literacy tasks for today. There is a spelling game, a friendship task and also a favourite fruit task. Keep up the hard work everyone.

Year 1 Maths – Wednesday 29th April

Hello everyone,

In Wednesday’s maths lesson we will continue to think about dividing by splitting objects into groups. Today, I have given you three suggested activities – you do not have to complete them all. They are there so that you can choose one or two activities that are most relevant to you – depending on how your child got on with yesterday’s learning.

Year 2 Home Learning Wednesday 29th April 2020

Hello Year 2!

The home learning we have set you for today is as follows:

Spellings – Today use this week’s spellings (a before l and ll) to play the dice game.  If you don’t have a dice at home then you could pick the numbers from a hat instead.

Literacy – It is time to read Chapter 3 of Sky Scraping Sunflowers.  Then complete the activities linked to this chapter which are set in your 2do section on Purple Mash.

Maths – Today’s Maths is about using the four operations (add, subtract, divide and multiply) with measures.  You can find the video you need here:

https://whiterosemaths.com/homelearning/year-2/

And the worksheet to be completed here:

Four operations with length

Also don’t forget to continue practising your times tables on Times Tables Rock Stars.  Miss Rouse and Miss Horler are waiting to see which class will get the most points this week.  Your class need you!

Afternoon activities – This week’s theme is Music, please see ideas below 🎸🥁 🎹

When you complete a music activity please upload them to the Year 2 homework blog for us to see.

Assembly 🎤 – We are sure that you are all missing Mr Wilcox’s music assembly.  He has made some music videos for you to join in with at home.  The next vocal activity is called ‘It is fun to sing! Part 3.  Knee knee, clap clap’.  Enjoy! 🎵

Thank you for working hard Year 2 and for sharing your work with us – we are very proud of you all!

From Miss Newport and Miss Jones. 😊 😊

Tuesday’s phonics challenge

Today’s challenge will help support your child’s reading by helping them to blend letters together.  Please find phonics play on the web and then input the username march20 and the password home.  Then select the game “dragons den” at phase 2 level.  In this challenge the children find out that the dragons eggs are mixed up and are unable to breathe fire.  In order to help them they must read the eggs and give them to the correct dragon.  They need to give the green dragon the real words and the red dragon made up words.  Good luck in helping the dragons!

Year 1 Maths – Tuesday 28th April

Following on from yesterday’s Maths lesson, today’s activity is based around another White Rose video. Today’s lesson introduces the topic of ‘Division’. In Year 1, one of the methods we use to teach is division is called ‘grouping’. This simply means putting objects into ‘groups of’ a particular number, to see how many equal groups you can make. The video will introduce this idea and talk the children through a number of examples, which they may like to have a go at practically too, alongside watching the video! 🙂

You will find details of which video to watch in the picture below. The link to the website is:

Year 1 Home Learning Tuesday 28th April 2020

For phonics today, please continue to practise your jumping orange year 1 words. Can you put these words into a sentence? Also watch Miss Hammond’s fantastic video’s, along with the DFE videos.

We hope you enjoyed planning your own story yesterday. There are some great innovations being sent in. We are looking forward to reading ‘The Ginormous Onion’ and ‘The Enormous Beetroot’ to name but a few of the super ideas.

Today’s Literacy is to begin to use your story plan to write your story. Children write at different paces, so it might be a good idea to break their story plan up for them into a beginning, middle and end section. Then write each section one a time. Breaking it up into chunks will make it more achievable. You can then choose whether you want to write the whole story today or you may find it better to spread it out over a couple of days. Much work has been on the computer, so this is a great opportunity to keep up the handwriting practise.

However, if you did prefer to record electronically a new 2do has been set called 2create a story. You can make a real book with words and pictures.

 

Please share you super stories via the homework blog, or you could email us at newdale.year1@taw.org.uk  We cannot wait to read them.
