P1 Monday 20th April – Numeracy

Hello again, hope you managed to answer some of Joe Wick’s quiz questions during your work out and I am sure you came up with some really good ee words for your Literacy tasks earlier.

Let’s join in with today’s Fischy Music Assembly:

You could maybe listen to the Elevenses story of “Stacey Superstar” from David Walliams later on if you have time.

http://www.worldofdavidwalliams.com/elevenses/

Now let’s refresh our memories about how to take away with our subtraction song:

Next, you will find today’s SUBTRACTION tasks on Study Ladder.

There are 2 activities and one of them is the Tutorial so don’t forget to watch that first.

Your username and password are on the inside cover of your jotter in your pack in case you have forgotten it!

When you have completed the Study Ladder tasks try to write 10 subtraction calculations of your own in your jotter and remember to keep them within 10  e.g.  9 – 3 = 6  etc.

If you need to, use a number line or some concrete materials you have at home to help e.g. beads, counters, straws, paper clips etc.

You could even draw some pictures of fruit or animals and cross them out to show you have taken them away – whichever works best for you.

Thank you, Mrs Topping

 

P1 Monday 20th April – Welcome back and Literacy

Good morning everyone and welcome back!!

Hope you are all safe and well and have managed to have a lovely Easter break!

Let’s kick start the new term with our daily PE session with Joe Wicks.

Remember to have a wee rest and drink some water before you begin todays Literacy tasks.

Today  we will revise the ee sound

  • Can you remember the action for the ee sound ?- remember the donkey has a sore throat so he doesn’t say the or sound YET!!
  • Now watch and listen to this clip explaining the ee sound
  • Find the ee pages in your Jolly Phonics workbook from your pack
  • Draw and colour 4 ee pictures and then practise writing the ee sound underneath
  • On the other side of the page, think of 6 words using the ee sound and write each ee word 3 times in your very best handwriting

Thank you, Mrs Topping.

  • Now try making some 2D shapes of your own with some materials you might have at home e.g. beads, sticks, straws, pegs, lego etc. Try to make some really BIG shapes and some really small shapes
  • Next complete pages 4 and 5 from your TeeJay Shape Workbook (A9)

Good afternoon everyone,

Here are some ideas
