Good Morning Everyone!
Good Morning Boys and Girls, I hope that you all had a fabulous weekend, are safe, happy and healthy, and of course ready for another week of home learning tasks. Hopefully your new packs will be ready soon, we are having a few technical issues!!
PE
Let’s start off the week by moving our bodies. I have been trying really hard to do more exercise, whether it’s walking my dogs, going on a bike ride with my little boy or even a run. It really is a great way to help lift your mood and help you feel great!
Let’s join in with Joe Wicks for half an hour of movement. Can you convince an adult to join in with you? Follow the link to his Youtube channel.

Music/Singing
Let’s have a Monday Morning assembly with the Fischy Music crew, follow the link to the Youtube channel and join in. It is also known that singing out loud can help put you in a good mood, so let’s go. Maybe you will recognise some of the songs from the one’s which we practise in class.
Reading
Last week we looked at two different types of book, fiction and non-fiction. Today we are going to read another fiction book. Log into Oxford Owls ebooks – https://www.oxfordowl.co.uk/for-home/find-a-book/library-page/ username – deans12 password mrsstevenson
We are going to have a go at reading ‘Painting the Loft’
Before reading, explore the front and back cover, make a prediction about what you think may happen in the story and look through the pictures of the book to discuss what is happening on each page.
With the help of an adult, read through the story remembering to using strategies to help you read any words which you find challenging. Can you remember the strategies we have used in class?
- Use the picture for a clue
- Read around the word
- Look at the individual sounds in the word
- Can you see a word in a word
As you read through the book, copy down any words which you are finding challenging. Why not make your own word wall to practise reading those tricky words?
There are 2 online games to go with this story – game one focuses on making a rhyming pair and game two focuses on labelling a picture. Good luck and have fun!
Finally, have a go at the Educationcity game ‘Match me if you can’ 
Phonics
The new sound for this week is ‘wh’
wh is a red sound, we make this sound using our lips. Have a look in the mirror as you say the sound, look at your lips and what they do.
Here is Geraldine to help us.
Can you name all the wh words in the pictures below?
Have a go at spelling these words. Have an adult read them out to you. Listen carefully to the sounds you hear and draw some pictures to go with your words.
wh -ee -l wh -i -s -k wh-i-s-p-er wh-i-ch wh -e- n
whe-r-e
French
In class we did a little bit of work on learning the colours of the rainbow in French. Have a listen to the following song, some of the colours are pronounced very similar to how we would say them in English.
Now have a go at colouring in the French rainbow colours sheet, I have attached it below also there is a copy in your last home learning packet.
Numeracy and Maths
Here are your daily ten for today. For this week, let’s have another focus on subtraction. Can you remember the strategies we can use to help us?
- Draw a picture
- Use concrete materials (cubes/rubbers/pencils)
- Use a number line
- Use our fingers
Make sure you place the symbols in the correct place if you are writing out the whole calculation. This week we are going to challenge ourselves by working with slightly larger numbers.
- 10 – 4 =
- 13 -1 =
- 7 – 4 =
- 14 -3 =
- 20-10 =
- 15-5 =
- 10 -2=
- 17 -0 =
- 10 -5=
- 14-14 =
Today I thought I would set you some challenge cards to use outside. I would love to see some pictures of your work.
Good luck with all of your home learning tasks for today. I will be back on the blog tomorrow, enjoy the rest of your day.
Mrs Stevenson
