What a great trip we had to Briarlands Farm last week. The weather held out for most of the day and the children were all exhausted by the end of the day!

School Show Songs

Practise the two songs with all the actions and watch out for tricky parts that get repeated (sometimes 3 times!) or parts that change slightly.

Spelling

very, saw, here.

Write a story using all these words.

Common Words

eye, face, fifteen, family.

Practise them from your sheet each night.

Reading

Read your book to your favourite toy then try to tell the story again by just looking at the pictures. Can you tell the story again from memory without looking at the book?

Maths

We have been working on counting out an even number up to 20 and grouping them into 2’s. Use small objects or coins and count out an even number. How many groups of 2 can you make? Draw and write a number story to match (5 groups of 2 is ?).

We have also been sharing out an even number into 2 groups. Count out an even number and share out one at a time into 2 lots. Do lots of examples using sweets, coins toys etc. Can your child see that sharing into 2 groups is the same as halving the number?

Sounds

This week’s sound is ‘ff’ (stuff, cliff, sniff). Can you find the ‘ff’ sound anywhere?

This year’s summer show has an Abba theme and is called ‘Bjorn This Way’.

It will be performed on the afternoon of Tuesday 18th June at 1.15pm and on the evening of Tuesday 18th and Wednesday 19th June at 7pm. The children should be brought back to school on both evenings at 6.30pm so they can get changed into their costumes.

The school will provide a t-shirt/ outfit and the children should come dressed in either black school trousers, leggings for the girls or jeans if that is not possible. We may use a little face make up so please advise the school if your child may be allergic. If the girls wish to use their own make up then they can come ready made up for the evening shows, or wear accessories  if they have them.

 

Sounds

‘a’ (ball, was, what, water, small etc).

Spelling

make, came, made.

Can you write a short story using all this week’s spelling words?

Common Words

earth, even, does, different.

Can you spot any common words in a book, comic or magazine?

Reading

Please talk to your child about what is happening in the story using the pictures and text. Discuss any difficult vocabulary and what it means. Ask questions like –  What do you think will happen next? Why did the character do/say that? How did they feel? Why? What happened at the beginning/middle/end of the story? Can you tell me the story again yourself?

Sumdog – Remember to do the literacy section of this on-line resource as well as the maths section.

Handwriting – cC, aA, dD, eE.

Practise small and capitals, completing at least one row of each letter in your jotter. Please ensure the letters start at the correct position, are formed correctly and are the correct size in relation to the lines in the jotter.

Draw, write and add sets, groups or lots of numbers to build up the table of 2’s like this –
