Well we made it to Friday and completed our first week back to school! I’m so sorry that I didn’t manage to get my calls to you all done this week but will hope to do these next week instead when I am working from the Hub. Here are your learning tasks for today…
Phonics- 🎲
Practice all sounds on sound chart again. It is important that we repeat this everyday!💗Pink literacy group – revise ‘ow’ by getting your grown up to say each word on the ‘ow’ 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 ‘ow’ 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- 📚
- 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!
- 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 3, Green- sheet 13 and Pink- sheet 29)
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 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!

Mathematics and ICT
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)
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
