‘Nurturing Individual Excellence’

Wednesday 13th May

Hi everyone,

Today, is actually another special day...

Below, I have attached some National Numeracy Activities if you want to complete them.  Some of you will be ready for the Year 2 challenges but have a look and see what you think. 

It was so lovely to speak to many of you yesterday.  I also had some lovely messages if I'd missed you.  I will try again this afternoon if you haven't yet had a chance to chat. 

Keep shining everyone!

Handa's Surprise- Tomorrow, I would like you to do some writing based on the story of 'Handa's Surprise'.  It would be a good idea to recap the story.  I have attached the video at the bottom of this page. 

You will need a pencil and some paper.

While you watch the video... 

  • List the animals that you see (taking the fruit from Handa). 

  • Make a note of the fruit that they steal.

Remember to say the word slowly to help you record the sounds you can hear.  (You can always look up a word later if you want to correct a spelling.)

Phonics Play- A special request, for the link to 'Tricky Trunks', came in yesterday.  Remember, it is still free to use with the login details below.   

When you visit the website you should click on Resources and then the phases (which are the different levels).  A 15 minute play is probably long enough.

Tricky Trucks

Today, have a go at reading your tricky words.  We have used this game before at school so you know what to do.  Start with Phase 3 first and move onto Phase 4 if that is too easy.  Move to Phase 5 if they are still too easy.  How many can you read?

Phase 3

Read, Write Inc- The sixteen set 3 sounds and the twelve set 2 sounds have all been covered so will start to replay.  There has also been a spelling lesson for each sound.  Today, there might be something new?  It's worth checking, even if you know all the sounds securely. Click the link to watch YouTube 

 

It is time for another White Rose lesson.  Below you can watch the learning video and then complete the activity.  Remember to write the date 13.5.20.  You can check your own answers after.

You can also complete the National Numeracy Challenges if you like.
