How are you getting on with your Global Goals work this week? It is all about listening and talking so remember to pay close attention to the video.

Literacy

Butterflies need warmth to be active and fly. I have seen a few in my garden when it has been really sunny. Watch this short video about caterpillars changing into butterflies. There is no talking in the video so pay attention to what you can see.

Numeracy

Try to work out this problem:

Have a lovely day everyone

Plant and flower hunt.

Can you work out what flower is in the good morning picture above using your hunt guide.

Now try these pictures

   

Literacy

Here is some handwriting practise.  Look at how to start both the capital and lower case letters.  Can you see that that lower case q bumps its chin on the line.  Remember capital Q should be the size of the whole space between the bottom and top line on your page.

Can you help me please?

I bought a packet of biscuits which has 12 biscuits in it.

Good morning!

It’s Friday so that means self-assessment time.

As it is a short week, there is less work for you to assess. Here is an extra challenge for you. There are six differences between these pictures. Can you find them all?

Health and Wellbeing

This week we focused on Les Mills for PE. Pick your favourite routine and think of a reason why it is your favourite e.g. I think  ‘Wanna Go Crazy’ is the best because I love the air guitar dance move. This is sharing your opinion.

Enjoy the weekend!

Good Morning P1,

I hope you have had a successful short week of learning. Today we are going to be talking about how you got on with your learning activities this week.

I have put the jolly jingles below for you to listen to with over 40 sounds on it! There will be some sounds you might not  know yet but the songs will help you learn some of them. We will be learning a new sound next week, the qu sound, did you spot it in the songs?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U2HYM9VXz9k

How did you get on with your numeracy tasks this week of making equal groups? I had a go at this task too. For the 2 ice cream cones I put 2 cherries on each cone. How could you equally share 10 cherries between 2 cones?

For the 3 ice cream cones I put 4 cherries on each cone, that is 12 cherries altogether. How could you equally share 9 cherries between 3 cones?

RE

How did you get on with your RE task this week? Did you say the ‘Hail Mary’? During the month of May we would say the Hail Mary every day in class so this is something you could try at home too. I have put a copy of the prayer below to help you.

Have a lovely weekend.

Good morning, for easy access I have included all the attachments for this week again below.

In our Health and Wellbeing part of the grid we are looking at the journey some foods make to get onto our plate to eat.

You have been asked to draw the process that carrots take to get to our dinner plate.

Here is a video link to help you.  It explains the journey the carrot makes.

Literacy

As part of our IDL work we have been looking at differences and similarities between ourselves and our friends/family.  Here is a table of Mrs Currie and Mrs Davenport’s similarities and differences.

Numeracy

You have been making equal groups.  Have a look at the following discussion cards, which cards show equal groups?  Why?

Good morning, P2! How are you getting on with your grid.

A couple of weeks ago I planted some seeds in a pot in my garden and they have started to grow, have a look!

It was a mixed packet of seeds so I have no idea what colour the flower will be. When it does flower I will post another picture.

Have you planted any seeds or plants?

Literacy

Let’s develop our science and literacy. Here is a link to a short video to learn all about the rhinoceros beetle.

https://www.reachoutreporter.com/video/rhinoceros-beetle/

Would you like a rhinoceros beetle as a pet? Why or why not? Can you write down or tell someone else at home two facts about the rhinoceros beetle?

Count how many dots are below. How did you count them?

Have a lovely day.

Look out for something new coming soon!

Next week we are going to be trialling using a new online reading resource called The Bug Club on the site Pearson Active Learn Primary.  At some point this week you will receive a group call email giving you details on your child’s log in details.  Next Monday (11.05.20) alongside the grid I will post a “How To Login Guide” and how to use it.  This resource will allow your child to have a book set for them by myself.  You and your child can then read the book aloud to each other and as you progress through (some of) the books there are quizzes to be completed.

Have a lovely day today.

I hope you’ve had a relaxing weekend.

Please find below the grid for this short week.
