Goldilocks and the Clever Plan

Animal Homes

Have you managed to spot any birds yet?

I have had a lot of Jackdaw birds visit my garden.  At first I thought they were small crows but then I researched some information and found out about what makes them different from a crow.

Literacy

If you want to do a little more practise on ai and oa use the following resources.

Here is a video link for a clip about the sound ai.

What oa words can you make using these beginning sounds, the oa middle sound and then the end sounds.

Maths

To continue to practise your estimation skills try this simple Pasta Game (you do not need to use pasta, you could use lego bricks, sweets, coins, counters etc.)

Pasta Estimation

Resources – 2 players (or more), Bag of pasta

• Using a bag of pasta, put your hand into the bag and take a handful out
• With your eyes closed spread out your handful on the floor and then open your eyes and estimate how many pieces you have (give yourself a short time limit to do this otherwise you will end up counting and we want to estimate first!)
• Once you have estimated, then count to get an accurate answer
• How close were you? However many your estimate was away from the accurate answer then this is your score
• The next player then repeats this process
• Whoever has the lowest score at the end is the winner
• You can decide how many times you repeat these steps in one game
• GOOD LUCK!

Don’t forget you can get in touch using the email address at the top of the weekly grid or use the comment section below.

Have a lovely day
