Good morning everyone, I hope you are all safe and well. I was in school yesterday and took a picture of the Three Little Pigs display (it’s a work in progress, hopefully we will get to finish it at some point). Last week the children worked with primary 7 buddies to create the 3 pigs houses. The children worked well together displaying good communication and problem solving skills.
I hope you have began some of the week one activities from your pack and are enjoying this new temporary way of learning. Just a few extra activities for your to try.
Teach your family the Days of the week song.
You could ask your child questions such as what day was it yesterday, what day will it be tomorrow? Also learn the months of the year song.
You could make a yearly calendar detailing family birthdays and special occasions. It would also be helpful to look at one month of the year and be able to identify e.g. the first Monday in March is the 2nd, what date is the third Friday? etc.
In the class we have been working on double numbers e.g. 3+3 etc. to extend our learning children have been trying to use this knowledge to answer near double questions e.g. we know 3+3 =6 so the answer to 3+4 must be one more. Have a go, challenge yourself with double and near double numbers to 10.
