Hello everyone, I hope you are all well and being kind and helpful at home.  Grown-ups please remember that completing all learning is in no way compulsory each and every day but trying to do aspects as often as possible will definitely ensure children’s progress in maintained.

Literacy –

  1. Phonics– Practice all sounds on your simple sound chart.  Take time to practise your speedy blending using the game shown below.
    https://www.phonicsbloom.com/uk/game/fishy-phonics?phase=2#


2. Reading– Play some more of ‘Teach Your Monster To Read’ by logging in using your account details.
3. Also, work on the reading of the speed sounds, green words, red words and the short story on your reading sheet booklet.

Red literacy group- sheet 8

Green literacy group- sheet 17

Pink literacy group- sheet 33

Complete the ‘questions to talk about’ section detailed at the bottom of page

4. Writing– Do the ‘Hold A Sentence’ on the bottom of the reading page detailed above in your blue jotter. Please do this on the lined section and look at your ‘reminder of writing skills’ sheet to help. Steps are 1. Grown up reads sentence. 2. Practise saying the sentence aloud a number of times until child remembers it. 3. Grown up models how to write the sentence (can use back pages of blue jotter or spare paper from home) 4. Child writes sentence independently without a visual. Encourage them to keep saying it as they write. 5. Check the writing. What went well, what do they need to remember for next time?

Mathematics –

On Tuesday we began a recap of our time learning from earlier in the school year.  We will continue this today with the tasks below.  If you didn’t get a chance to complete the tasks on Tuesday, it might be easier to do that first instead.

  1. Play the game linked below.  You must set the clocks to different times and there are different levels to work through to suit how confident you feel.  When you hover over the text it will read the questions aloud for you.

https://www.sheppardsoftware.com/mathgames/earlymath/on_time_game1.htm

2. Complete pg. 21 of your Early Level Maths Record book.

Other task – Science (Day and Night)

Last term we spent time learning about the wonders of the sky.  Use the resources on the BBC Bitesize lesson below (I have also saved it to our class login ‘MyBitesize’ section) to learn more about seasons, day and night and features of the sky.  There are learning videos and linked activities if you wish to do any of them.  There is even a quiz you can do!

Wednesday again so a break from the normal RWI routine.  In school on Wednesday’s we are usually very busy doing our literacy and numeracy along with ICT and PE too!  So I will try to cover all of these in todays activities…

Literacy – Mrs Brankin’s Helicopter story approach and linked task found below after some parent info.  Just scroll down if you want! 😉

The 2 links below are just for parent information if anyone wants to find out more about the ‘Helicopter Story approach’ we at St Ninian’s use as part of our literacy in P1.  You may have seen some of this work at our Bookbug event earlier this year too!  This approach looks to build children’s confidence as storytellers and storywriters and we have seen some great success with it this year so wanted to try aspect of it for home-learning.

This year I am lucky enough to have Mrs Brankin in the class for a time on Wednesdays and to get the  most of this time she takes some children for literacy using a ‘helicopter story approach’ linked to what we are learning across the curriculum.  I then take the others to learn some ICT skills in the computer room and then we switch over!  This means smaller groups, more teaching time and better for the learners success!

https://www.daynurseries.co.uk/news/article.cfm/id/1575572/helicopter-stories-unlock-childrens-voices

So now for the task for the children set by Mrs Brankin…At home listen to the story “I’m not just a Scribble” https://youtu.be/U8go4ZveIcU then act out some of the things that Scribble does.

Create your own scribble adding eyes, a mouth, arms and legs. You can even create a scribble family like my boy Clark did. Give your scribble a name, then tell a grown up a story about scribble and ask them to scribe/ write down your story about scribble.

Send your scribble drawings and stories to Miss Thompson who can share them with me and we can put them all together to create the adventures of scribble. I can’t wait to read them.

Numeracy/ICT –

See if you can log on to the device you are using and access the favourites section in BusyThings using your login details. Take your time when typing in the details.  Can you do this independently?

In the favourites you will see a range of saved games.  Please take time to play ‘Miner Birds – Addition and Subtraction’.  There are 3 levels to choose from and you play against the computer….I wonder who will be the winner?  You will have to use all of your numeracy skills coupled with your computer skills to win the game.  Play for around 15 minutes.

Other Tasks – Health and Wellbeing (PE)

Wednesday is our normal gym day so I have added a link to a fun dance lesson for age 5-9 from Scottish Youth Dance.  It last 25minutes and is themed to Hogwarts, casting spells, making potions and flying on broomsticks!  All you need is a clear safe space and something to be your wand, have fun!

Just follow this link, read the parent info and scroll down to choose dance class called

YCreate Creative Dance for ages 5 – 9 with Aimee:

Tuesdays learning jobs…

Phonics – Practice all sounds on sound chart again.

We will use the Ruth Miskin (RWI creator) youtube live videos from yesterday to help today.  I like to watch these beforehand to make sure they are suitable for us.

 💗 + 💚Green literacy group –

Focus on speedy reading and spelling using set 2 sounds with these videos.  It does focus on ‘ow’ which we looked at last week but it wont do any harm to revisit and it does follow the routines we use in class.

❤Red literacy group – Focus on speedy reading and spelling using set 1 sounds with these videos. 

Reading- 📚

  1. All learners login to your OxfordOwl account using the details provided on your ‘home learning folder’ and select a book to read or have read to you. 
  2. Re-read your reading sheet from yesterday and see if you can read it a little faster but with a good storyteller voice! (Red- sheet 7, Green- sheet 16 and Pink- sheet 32 
  3. Writing ✍In your blue jotter, above the ‘hold a sentence’ from yesterday, can you draw a picture of something that happens in your reading sheet. Or to challenge yourself, can you draw a sequence of pictures to show what happens in the short story you read?  Try to include as much detail as you can. My advice would be to avoid felt tip pens as they will leak through to the next jotter pages! 😭

Don’t forget to schedule in some brain breaks.  Maybe go for a walk to get some fresh air or use one of the brainbreak resources we have used recently.   Here is one if you need it…

https://www.nhs.uk/10-minute-shake-up/shake-ups/follow-svens-sled

Mathematics – revision of time learning

  1. Sing the days of the week (tune: Adams Family) and Month of the Year songs
  2. Login to Busythings and play ‘The Clock – Demo 1’ that I have saved to your ‘favourites’ section and also do the Seasons interactive worksheet I have saved for you in the ‘My Assignments’ tab. These will remind you of some prior learning and help you to complete the next part of your time task today.

3. Complete pg.20 of your Early Level Maths Record Book.

Other Task – Expressive Arts

The boys in one of the videos in yesterdays lesson about friendship spoke about puppets.  Can you use resources you can find at home to create your own puppet friend?  If you do, give it a name and tell us why it is a good friend to have.  Remember to send some photos of your wonderful work to me or the schools twitter.  Have fun!

Hello Everyone! I hope you all had a lovely weekend.  Here is today’s learning…

First, here is the link to a listening and movement song to get you all awake and ready to learn.

Literacy – normal Monday routine…

  1. Phonics– Practice all sounds on your simple sound chart. Play this word building game by using the sounds or letters in the word ‘friendship’ to see how many of your own words you can make. I will give you one to get you started- f-i-sh= fish 🐟  😅 we will focus more on the theme of friendship later in our learning today. 

2. Reading– Play some more of ‘Teach Your Monster To Read’ by logging in using your account details.
3. Also, work on the reading of the speed sounds, green words, red words and the short story on your reading sheet booklet.

Red literacy group- sheet 7Green literacy group- sheet 16

Pink literacy group- sheet 32Complete the ‘questions to talk about’ section detailed at the bottom of page

4. Writing– Do the ‘Hold A Sentence’ on the bottom of the reading page detailed above in your blue jotter. Please do this on the lined section and look at your ‘reminder of writing skills’ sheet to help. Steps are 1. Grown up reads sentence. 2. Practise saying the sentence aloud a number of times until child remembers it. 3. Grown up models how to write the sentence (can use back pages of blue jotter or spare paper from home) 4. Child writes sentence independently without a visual. Encourage them to keep saying it as they write. 5. Check the writing. What went well, what do they need to remember for next time?

Numeracy- adding and taking away game.
Use the photo and example shown below to help.

Get ready to play- Set up your cards face down and get a grown up to help you section off a double page in your jotter just like the photo. To make the game easier if needed, only put out cards 1-5. Next, get your counters all ready in a pile and place your 10s frame laminate beside everything else. We will play the game 8 times until all boxes are full and each should have an adding and a take away sum in the end.  you will also need a pencil.

Playing the game – turn over 2 cards and look at the numbers. Which is larger and which is smaller. Can you add these numbers together?  Use your counters to help show and prove your thinking! Practise representing your calculation as a number sentence (sum). Next subtract one number from the other, remembering that the biggest must go first! Again, you can show this with your counters, just like I have in the photo and show it as a sum in your jotter. With larger numbers you may not be able to show both calculations in counters in the 10s frames at the same time like I have. Mix up your cards and get ready to play again. Keep playing until all boxes are filled.

Other task – Health and Wellbeing

We will use the below link to a BBC Bitesize lesson focussed on friendship.

We all have lots of great friends in P1 and even though we can’t see our school friends everyday at the moment, they are still our good friends and can’t wait to play together again soon. Watch the videos in the lesson to help you to think about friendship and do some of the below activities- Who do you play with or talk to regularly in school? Draw pictures of them and write their names. What makes them a good friend to have?

Think about what Bill and Owen  in the video said about things they share. Draw or write down the things you share with your friends and the games you like playing together.

The end of another week at home but still hopefully happy, healthy and learning!  Here are your learning jobs for today…

Phonics- 🎲

Practice all sounds on sound chart again.

💗Pink literacy group – revise the second ‘oo’ (short – look at a book) by getting your grown up to say each word on the ‘oo’ page of your ‘speed sounds’ booklet and without looking, can you count the sounds using your ‘Fred fingers’ and try to write a few of these in your blue jotter. Next play your ‘race to the pond’ game using the ‘set 2’ side. Use the counters and dice provided.

💚Green literacy group – learn ‘oo – look at a book’ sound as above.  It is a long vowel sound which has 2 letters that make just 1 sound! Can you find it on your sound chart? Can you remember which letters combine to make the sound ‘’ow”? Can you remember the helpful rhyme – “blow the snow” and talk about the picture on the card at the top left of the page? Can you read and say some “ow” sound words? Next, play the ‘set 1’ side of ‘race to the pond’. 

❤Red literacy group – Focus in any sounds you are finding tricky to remember and then play ‘race to the pond’ on set 1 side only.

Reading- 📚

  1. All learners login to your OxfordOwl account using the details provided on your ‘home learning folder’ and select a book to read or have read to you. There are some RWI ones on here that you may recognise from school!  Or alternatively read a story from home.
  2. Re-read your reading sheet from yesterday and see if you can read it a little faster but with a good storyteller voice! (Red- sheet 6, Green- sheet 15 and Pink- sheet 31Writing ✍In your blue jotter, above the ‘hold a sentence’ from yesterday, can you draw a picture of something that happens in your reading sheet. Or to challenge yourself, can you draw a sequence of pictures to show what happens in the short story you read?  Try to include as much detail as you can. My advice would be to avoid felt tip pens as they will leak through to the next jotter pages! 😭

Don’t forget to schedule in some brain breaks.  Maybe you can try some of the ’10 minute shake-up’ activities on the NHS site below.  Some of them require another person to play but this one you can do all by yourself…

https://www.nhs.uk/10-minute-shake-up/shake-ups/crush-and-squirts-turtle-travel

Numeracy – Solving a Word Problem

Use a copy of the worksheet below to solve the following word problem using all of your number skills.  You will find a booklet of these in your home-learning pack.  Please choose the word challenge for your group, again this is printed on the front of your pack.

Tip: Remember to listen to the problem carefully, find things to model your thinking (maybe socks!) and what does ‘pair’ mean?  What type of calculation will we need to do to find the answer?

Triangles –  Ben has a pair of socks and his sister has another pair.  How many socks do they have altogether?

Circles –  Ben has 4 pairs of socks but his sister only has 1 pair. How many socks do they have altogether?

Squares – Ben had 4 pairs of socks but his sister has one more pair than him.  How many socks do they have altogether?

Other task – As we normally do some music on a Friday afternoon, use BBC Bitesize resources to complete this voice lesson.  Remember I have set up an account if you prefer to use that and this lesson is saved in ‘My Bitesize’ (username: P1StNinsDundee, password: St-Nins1)

Hi all! Here is your learning for today and it is a little bit different to normal as it is all based around the podcast series ‘JoJo Gnome’ that we have used a few times in school already this year.  It will give us a range of learning opportunities for today…

Watch the following podcast, ‘JoJo Gnome and Home School’.  It is the latest episode in the JoJo Gnome series.  You can click the link here or use the website below.

www.jojognome.com

Listen to the podcast and then do the following cross curricular learning activities based upon the story today..

1 – Writing

Use your imagination to complete the ‘story starter’ task given at the end of the podcast.

2  – Expressive Art and Literacy

Make a sign for your home-school just like in JoJo Gnome.  Remember to make it clear and colourful.  Can you draw or write some of the things you like about going to school in your own home just like JoJo did?

3 – Talking and Listening challenge

We all have to stay home at the moment to keep ourselves and others safe.  We are all doing our best but of course we miss our normal school!  Think about what you miss about going to real school and talk about it with someone at home.   What does your grown-up miss?  Remember that things will all get back to ‘normal’ one day soon so keep positive and be kind to each other!

4 – ICT

JoJo was given the challenge to find a leaf, flower, bug, water and something interesting, he found them all! Can you find any of these things and try taking a photo on a device you have at home?  How do you then view the images you have taken? See if you can get a grown up to help you to send me one!

5 – Number

Jojo spends time focusing on the number 5 so here are a few 5 themed number jobs for you to chose from.  The first is less tricky than the second so pick which suits.

See how many ways you can think of to show 5.  Maybe you can make some collections of 5, show 5 as a numeral but also as dots on a dice, as tallies, as numicon shape, on a 5 or 10s frame.  See what different ways you can think of.

or

Let see if we can learn to count in groups of 5, just like we practised when doing our tally marks last week. Use the video below and your 100 square and counters to find all of the numbers we say when we count from 0-50 in 5s.

6 – Celebrating success and wider achievement

We all have some special skills or talents and in the story we learn that JoJo was good at hulahooping.  He even taught Grandpa and Aunty Molly to hulahoop with mixed success!  What are you especially good at and can you teach a grown up how to do it?

7 – Dance – Take time to dance and be happy like JoJo using the link below

8- Health and Wellbeing

Just like JoJo, can you help to make lunch for your family at home today?

Tuesday’s jobs…

Phonics- 

Practice all sounds on sound chart again.  Remember, it is important that we repeat this everyday!

💗Pink literacy group – revise ‘oo’ by getting your grown up to say each word on the ‘oo’ page of your ‘speed sounds’ booklet and without looking, can you count the sounds using your ‘Fred fingers’ and try to write a few of these in your blue jotter.  Can you pick one to create a funny sentence for?

💚Green literacy group – learn ‘oo’ sound as above.  It is a long vowel sound which has 2 letters that make just 1 sound! Can you find it on your sound chart? Can you remember which letters combine to make the sound ‘’oo”? Can you remember the helpful rhyme – “poo at the zoo” and talk about the picture on the card at the top left of the page? Can you read and say some “oo” sound words? 

❤Red literacy group – Focus in any sounds you are finding tricky to remember.  

Next login and play the game below to practise your speedy blending.
https://www.phonicsbloom.com/uk/game/fishy-phonics?phase=2#

Reading- 📚

  1. All learners login to your OxfordOwl account using the details provided on your ‘home learning folder’ and select a book to read or have read to you. There are some RWI ones on here that you may recognise from school! 
  2. Re-read your reading sheet from yesterday and see if you can read it a little faster but with a good storyteller voice! (Red- sheet 5, Green- sheet 14 and Pink- sheet 30)

Or to challenge yourself, can you draw a sequence of pictures to show what happens in the short story you read?  Try to include as much detail as you can. My advice would be to avoid felt tip pens as they will leak through to the next jotter pages! 😭

Don’t forget to schedule in some brain breaks.  Maybe you can try some of the ’10 minute shake-up’ activities on the NHS site below.  Some of them require another person to play.  But this is one you can do all by yourself!

https://www.nhs.uk/10-minute-shake-up/shake-ups/jungle-jig-with-nala-and-simba

Numeracy –

Mental – Subitising is the ability to tell the number of objects in a set, quickly, without counting.  We have practiced this lots and lots in school to help us become confident with counting.  Use the song below to help you further develop your subitising.  It will help you get ready for our next job.

Activity – please complete pages 5 and 9 in you ‘Early Level Maths Record Book’.  They are revision of noticing patterns and using these to help you count.

Other tasks –

Play is very important in our learning!  Why don’t you play a game of hide and seek at home.  See if you can come up with the best hiding place!  Next, can you create an obstacle course using things around the house for your family to do?  How long does it take to complete and who is the fastest?  Don’t forget you can send in some photos if you want to share your creations!

Numeracy – Finding the difference

Watch these videos to help you prepare for the game below…

https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p017l51x

https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p017vmqp

Today we are going to practise finding the difference between 2 numbers using 10 of our double sided counters (in your pack). You will also need a cup and your number line. 

Using 10 of your double sided counters, shake them all up in a cup and then tip them out onto a surface. Which colour is there more of? Which colour has less? How many do you have of each colour?  Let’s try to find the difference between these totals…

1. Try counting on from the smaller number and stop when you reach the bigger number. For example if I have 9 red and only 1 blue counter, to find the difference I could start at 1  and count up to 9, this would be a difference of 8.
2. Or I can find the difference by taking away. Remember the biggest number must go first before subtracting the smaller number. For example if 9 of my counters landed on red and only 1 was blue, then the difference is 9-1=8 😀

Both strategies give the same answer and can be used to find the difference between two numbers.
Try it yourself by playing this game with your counters and use your number line to help!

Other task- Music/French

We love to sing the ‘I can sing a rainbow’ song both in English and French too! Can you remember how to do this? See if you can sing both versions at home to your grown up(s). Can you find and gather something at home to represent each of the colours and point to them as you sing the song. Get a grown up to point to an object and see if you can remember the french colour word.
Here are the words incase you have forgotten…

To finish off our look at data, please login to BusyThings using your account details and look for the tab called ‘My Assignments’.
Once you click here, you will see the graphing activity I have set you to complete.  Give it a go! I have included a photo below to help but the best way to figure it out is to just try it out.

I have created a picture graph or pictograph (pictogram) to show you the vehicles that passed my house the other day when we collected this information using our tally marks.  Can you make your own for the data you collected?  If not, you can try and copy mine.  I will be able to see the wonderful graphs you make! To get the vehicle symbols, if you click on the coloured dots, then the elephant, you will be taken to a large choice of pictures to use and we want the vehicles for this job (see photo above)

http://www.busythings.co.uk

Other learning task – Art and Craft

Use resources at home to make a kind, happy and positive sign to put on one of your windows.  Try to make it as bright and inspiring as you can.  People will see it when they are out and it will help make them smile i’m sure!

Have a great weekend everyone!  I am working in the Hub next week but will continue to post as and when I can!  Sending love x
