Re-read the book with the help of an adult. You can then either choose to complete an activity from your home learning guided reading grid or you can complete the activity below.
Find the missing word from the story.
- Dad ____________________ at the water butt.
- Dad mended _______ water butt. He ______ a patch on it.
- The water butt burst. All _______ water _________ out.
- Dad ________ wet.
- Mum put the hose on the _________. The _______ of the _______ came off.
- Mum got _________ wet.
Good luck, remember you can scan through the book to help you find the sentence you need or can you challenge yourself to fill gap without looking?
Finally, I have added another reading game to our home learning section of Educationcity, it’s called – ‘On Cue’ – have fun and remember to listen carefully and read each of the options to complete the sentence.
Phonics
Yesterday we explored new sound th. Just for fun I have added the ‘Alpha blocks – Thing‘ below to remind you of words containing this sound!
How quickly can you say the sound, remember the trick to tell the difference between th and f, don’t get tricked out by this sound! Can you explain the difference between these two sounds to an adult?
Today have a go at writing the sound using the join between the letters t and h. Below is an example to help you. Remember to self assess your work with ‘green for growth’ and ‘tickled pink’.
Finally, have a go at this code breaker activity. Find the numbers which go alongside the letters to build a th word. Don’t forget to draw the picture to go with the word.

Number Talks
Today let’s use a rekenrek to help us think about number.
Have a go at A, B and C. How do you see the beads? Remember we look at only the beads on the left. Can you write a number calculation to show how you see the beads on the top and bottom of the rekenrek?
Follow the link to an online rekenrek. You can play around with the beads to make different numbers.

Finally, here is a fun game to remind you of how to use a rekenrek. You have 3 seconds to shout out how many beads you can see… can you do it without counting. You can write the number down or simply shout it at the screen!
