Good Morning Boys and Girls!
Happy Wednesday everyone, I hope you are ready for another day of home learning fun!
Let’s jump right in with some……
Reading/writing
Have another go at reading ‘Mix, Mix, Mix’ on the Oxford Owls ebooks page. I want you to have a think today about what you would put in your potion to mix, mix, mix! Share this with an adult and you could even make it! I have attached below a template for writing out your very own magic potion. Use page 1 if you have a printer or you can make up your own in your purple jotters.
If you are having a go at this activity remember to use those ordering words that we used for writing instructions previously.
Success criteria
I can first, next and last to order my ideas.
I can use a capital letter, full stop and finger spaces.
I can sound out words I am unsure of.
Phonics/handwriting
This week we have been working on learning all about the ‘w’ sound. (a big thanks to those who sent me some ‘w’ pictures yesterday – great work!)
Today I would like you to have a go at practising writing the letter. In your packs is a picture of 3 witches. The idea is to follow the pattern of the 3 witches hats to make the shape of the letter. There are a few worksheets within the pack to help you practise. In case you haven’t got your pack yet I have attached a practise sheet below.
Don’t forget to tinkle pink and green for growth your work, use a sharp pencil and ensure your letters sit on the line.
This is a great website to explore if you are having some difficulty remember the correct formation of each letter.

Numeracy and Maths
I thought we could have a go at subitising again today. Get your shouty voices (or pencils) ready to say how many dots are in the ten frame, remember you only have 3 seconds and the aim is to recognise how many without counting!
Daily 10.
Instead of me giving you your daily 10 today, visit this website…
https://www.topmarks.co.uk/maths-games/daily10
Choose level one, addition, numbers up to 10.
Look at the example below. The starting number is 3, so how many more do you add on to make 5?
Using a number line is an easy way to find the solution, put your finger on 3 and count on until you reach 5, how many jumps did you make with your finger? Or you could use counters (or anything around your house) start with 3 then make 5, how many did you have to add? Have a go, there are 10 questions, I suggest putting the timer on manual until you have got the hang of it. Then you can challenge yourself.
Money
How did everyone get on with making their own shops yesterday. I’d love to see some pictures if you have them?
Today why not practise making totals in your shop? Invite someone to visit your shop and you can add up what they spend.
Below is a link to a great game to help you add up coins.
Start by choosing ‘one coin’ and begin to practise using 1p’s to add up totals.

Health and Wellbeing
Did you manage to figure out the 3 key messages from the road safety clip yesterday. STOP, LOOK and LISTEN. Well done if you got them right.
Why not design a poster displaying those key messages. Here are some pictures for inspiration.
Good luck with all of your learning tasks for today. I look forward to seeing all of your super work. I will be back tomorrow with some more ideas for home learning. Enjoy the rest of your day and if you are out for a walk don’t forget to stop, look and listen!
