Primary 1 – Term 4 Day 7 Tuesday 21st April

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.

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)

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!

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!
