SLC 2 and Mrs Blaney’s groups 4th May
Hi, 👋
Here are some more activities you could try this week. Remember you can go back to the previous weeks and try those activities again. It’s good to go over work we have completed in the past!
Literacy 📝
*Please keep practising writing your lower and capital letters in any way you can. Working outside can be lots of fun and you might have things in your garden to help. Use stones to lay out the shape of each letter before you try to write it.
*You have been doing a lot of work on the middle sound of simple 3 letter words such as; cat, tap, tin, net, cop, nut. This week I would like you to add the sound ‘sh’ to the beginning of these middle sounds and see what new words you can make. You could draw a picture of some of the words you make. Here are a few examples to get you started; shop, ship, shed.
Listen to this song on Youtube

*We have all been learning our green and yellow keywords that Mrs Blaney has on the wall in the class. Can you continue to practise reading and writing these words when you can. Keep a note of these words as I will add 1 or 2 new ones each week. Everyone has been learning the green words and I will start adding yellow words each week.
Green words

*Click on the link below and write a few sentences about the monster. You do not need to print off the sheet, just write your sentences on to paper. Draw a picture of the monster when you have finished or can you draw a new monster that could be his friend.
*Remember to log in to Bug Club a few times each week 📖
Numeracy 🧮
Group 1
*Number story of 10
Can you write all the addition sums where the answer is 10?
0+10 1+9 2+8 and so on.
Remember you can use small objects as counters if that helps and try to remember as many of the sums as you can by practising this work.
*This is one of our favourite games to play in class. Give it a go!!!

This week you could try writing the number that comes between 2 numbers.
34 _ 36 52 _ 54 67 _ 69 29 _ 31

*Write out the 3 and 6 times table
*Play these times table games

*Roll a dice and write down the number, do this another twice and you have made a 3 digit number! Can you repeat this then add both of your 3 digit numbers together? Have a go at making your own 3 digit addition sums.
Maths for all
Time ⏰
*Can you make your own analogue clock? Below are some examples to show you how.
*Discuss the following:
How many minutes in an hour?
How many minutes in half an hour?
*Group 1 – Set the time to show o’clock and half past
Ask an adult to set the time and you read it
*Group 2 – Set and read the time using 5 minute increments
Can you set the time 30 mins after a time that an adult tells you?
Fun for all 🧱
*If you have lego or any other type of construction toy then build your own house. Can you make extra buildings that you could add to make your own street or town?
*We had fun in our house this week making mazes with lego. You could try to make your own and get someone in your house to complete it. Here is a picture of my wee boy Jack and the maze he made for me to try 😁
Take care of yourself and I hope you are having fun with the people in your house.

Literacy
- This week I would like you to revise the sh, ch, and th sounds that we have been learning recently. Can you find objects in your house that have these sounds in them e.g shirt, shoe, chain, thread etc. Ask an adult to help you sort them into groups of the same sounds.
- Use the objects you have found and play ‘Kims game’. 1.Lay out the objects and remember what they are 2. Get a cover and place over the objects 3. Ask an adult to remove one of the objects 4. Can you guess what one is missing and say the sound for that object

- Keep practising the green words in the list below. Can you continue to practise reading and writing these words when you can? You can use lots of different materials to help you spell (you don’t always need paper and a pencil!!). Try chalk, paint, playdough, stones, beads etc. You could ask someone to write the ones you know onto one of the game boards, play the game and read the words. I have added another 2 yellow words but please do not feel you have to read and write all of these, just do what you can!
Green words Yellow

- Have you been helping more in your house since lockdown? This is a good time to practise lifeskills. This week I would like you to help make lunch one day. This could be making a sandwich, heating up soup or making toast. Once you have finished discuss what you did, what equipment you used and the ingredients. Ask an adult to help you with the writing task in the link below where you will write the instructions. Please do not feel you have to print this off as it can be copied on to paper.
- If you make or bake anything else then please feel free to write it up for extra practice

Fun for all
- Collect sticks when you are next on your walk and try to make a stick house with them. You might also need some string or wool to help hold your model together.
- Use the blank board game to design your own game for everyone to play. Maybe you could set challenges as they land on each square e.g. 10 jumping jacks, say a compliment to someone, do a handstand, say the alphabet backwards?
- I hope you enjoyed practising your drawing skills last week! Here is another link you could try again this week.
Miss Lee’s Groups
Hello to everyone that is in my literacy, numeracy and wellbeing groups. I have really enjoyed finding out how you are all doing over the last few days and what sort of things you have been up to. I thought it would be helpful to set a few wee tasks that you could try at home if you are needing something else to do. Parents and carers, please note these are just suggestions for your children. Please don’t feel under pressure to do them the most important thing is that you are all well and happy.
Literacy
Bug Club – All of the pupils have had new books added so that they have some new books to read.
Name 5 Things Challenge – This is a game that you can play in the house to practice using nouns. We had been doing some work on this in school last term. Can you name 5 things that …….
- Smell nice
- Feel soft
- That sound nice
- That are shaped like circles
- That taste sweet
You could write your answers down on the whiteboards that came home with you or collect the items together and organise them into groups.
Writing – Pupils could practice writing out the alphabet in small and capital letters pairing the letters with one another as they are writing it out i.e. Aa, Bb, Cc….. This could be done on their whiteboards or their alphabet sheets in their packs, on post it notes or big sheets of paper. Have fun doing it using pens, crayons, pencils try to make it as colourful as you can.
Numeracy
Outdoor Maths Challenge – If you go for a walk this week see if you can find the following things on your walk.
- Find 8 leaves
- Find 5 stones
- Use twigs to make a triangle.
- Look for different objects that have a circle in them i.e. the wheels on a bike
- Find 3 different kinds of minibeast.
Days of the Week Challenge – Can you write out the seven days of the week and then try to do the following tasks.
- What day is after Thursday?
- What day is before Wednesday?
- What day comes before Saturday?
- Which day comes after Monday?
- What day is it 2 days after Tuesday?
- What day is it 3 days before Monday?
- Which day comes before Thursday?
- What day is it 2 days after Friday?
Don’t forget you have Sumdog that you can log into to use for maths and also there is Topmarks. There are lots of other websites suggested on the sheets that we sent home in March as well.
Something Else To Try
The Wellbeing group that spend time with me when assemblies are taking place have enjoyed doing some cooking and baking with me. I thought you might like to try some of the recipes that we have tried. First up are pancakes, this is particular favourite in our house.
| Ingredients |
| 8oz flour |
| 3oz caster sugar |
| 1tspn Bicarbonate Soda |
| 2tspns Cream of Tartar |
| Pinch of salt |
| 1desertspoon vegetable oil |
| 2 large eggs |
| Half pint of milk |
Put all of the ingredients into a bowl and mix together until you have a smooth mixture. Gently heat up a frying pan. Carefully put a spoonful of the batter in the frying pan and let it cook until there are bubbles popping in the batter. This is the point at which it is ready to turn. Flip the pancake over and cook for another minute or so. Once you are happy they are cooked lift them out of the pan and let them cool on a cooling rack.
I hope you are doing well this week. Take care and stay safe.
Love Miss Lee
