Today is about self-assessing; how have you got on with your learning this week?

We are using ‘thumbs up’ strategy to assess our learning. Some of the tasks you have completed you will be thinking if you can:

How did you get on with writing the ‘j’ sound? Which ‘thumb’ would you show for writing this sound? Are you remembering to get the tail under the line? If you practised writing this sound in your jotter draw a coloured circle which responds to the thumb on your page to show how you felt you got on with this task.

 

Literacy

We will be using tickled pink and green for growth for self-assessing your work. Let’s begin with your writing task this week.

I made some mistakes on my story which was posted on the daily blog post on Wednesday? Did you spot my mistakes?

A little green alien wif a fluffy tail went on A rocket.

2 mistakes – wif spelt wrong = with. Capital letter in middle of sentence A = a.

the rocket was fast and took the alien to the beach.

1 mistake – Capital letter is missing at beginning of the sentence. the = The

At the beach thi alien went in the sea for a swim

2 mistakes – Sight word spelt wrong. thi = the. Missing full stop swim = swim.

“i love the beach”, said the alien, hee didn’t want to go back to the moon.

2 mistakes – Missing capital letter i = I. Sight word spelt wrong. hee = he.

Did you manage to include all of the success criteria in your writing this week? I have included the success criteria below for you to check.

Leave a finger space between words.	Spells sight words correctly.
Use capital letters and full stops.	Use awareness of sounds to sound out unfamiliar words.

Get a pink pen/crayon/pencil and draw a circle around 1 or 2 examples of each part of the success criteria you achieved in your writing. Using a green pen/crayon/pencil have you missed out any parts of the success criteria? Ask an adult to help you check that you wrote all your sounds correct way (no reversals) and formed letters such as y, g, f, j (letters where the tails comes under the line) correctly. Mark these with a green pen if not and write each 3 times to practise forming these letters correctly.

Numeracy/Maths

I have attached links for you to self-assess your missing numbers worksheets for numbers to 20; numbers beyond 20 and for counting in 10’s.

Health and Wellbeing

Did you draw a picture for one of your friends that you are missing at school? I am missing you all. The St. Ninian’s team made a special picture to show you all how much we are all missing you!

Have a lovely weekend, and remember to check back in on Monday morning to the blog to see your new learning grid that will have a wide range of activities for you to choose from to extend and support your learning at home.

I also completed my book review this week after I read ‘Painting the Loft’ story on Oxford Owl. Please find the link to my book review below to check you included the same amount of information as I did.

Painting the Loft Book Report

This week we are using ‘thumbs up’ strategy to assess our learning. Some of the tasks you have completed you will be thinking if you can:

Thumbs up/green – can do it and can move on.

Thumbs in middle/yellow: almost there, a bit more practise.

Thumbs down/red: need more help.

You can talk about this to someone at home or use the colours which represents each ‘thumb’ at the top of each piece of work you completed. Please let me know if there is something which are feeling ‘red/thumbs down’ for and I can provide you with extra activities to help support you with your learning.

How did you get on with writing the ‘j’ sound? Which ‘thumb’ would you show for writing this sound? Are you remembering to get the tail under the line? If you practised writing this sound in your jotter draw a coloured circle which responds to the thumb on your page to show how you felt you got on with this task.

Missing Numbers Worksheet Week 3 Self Assessment

How did you get on with your number talks this week? I have put down some of my strategies for number talks this week below. Did you use any of the strategies I used?

For the 10 Frame above:

I saw 6 like a dice and then I counted on 7, 8.

I know that this is a 10 frame and I saw that there were 2 spaces missing. 10 – 2 = 8.

For the rekenrek above:

I saw 4 like a dice and then I counted on 5, 6, 7.

I wrote a number story: 5 + 2 = 7

For the dice pattern above:

I saw 5 like a dice and counted on 6, 7.

How have you got on with telling the ‘o’clock’ time? Show an adult in ‘thumbs’ how you found this task. What things did you find in your home that will tell the time? Here is my list:

Clock,

Oven,

Phone,

TV,

Laptop,

Kindle.

Health and Wellbeing

Did you draw a picture for one of your friends that you are missing at school? I am missing you all. The St. Ninian’s team made a special picture to show you all how much we are all missing you!

Have a lovely weekend P1.

 

Good morning everyone.

How are you getting on with your grid so far?

Remember that the sumdog challenge for ‘number words’ finishes at 3pm today. Lots of you have already finished or are close to finishing the challenge – well done!

Learning Grid

In the Health and Wellbeing part of the grid you were asked to try a new food. 

Have you managed to have a go at this? 

Sometimes when we try something new for the first time we can be very unsure if we like it or not, it can take trying a food more than three times to know for sure if you like it.

Two years ago I tried olives for the first time when I was on holiday, they have quite an unusual salty taste and I really was not sure I liked them.  However I then tried them again and I was really surprised that I found that I quite liked them.  Now olives are a real favourite of mine!

Numeracy

Our numeracy learning this week is all about the numbers up to 20 and/or up to 100.

Learning our numbers to 100 is very useful as we use numbers every day in our lives.  Some board games need you to know your numbers.  One example is snakes and ladders.  If you have this game at home challenge someone to play with you.

If you don’t have this game use this link here to download a snakes and ladders board (or you could even try to make your own board – remember it doesn’t need to go all the way to 100 if you cannot fit that in on a page).

Snakes and Ladders Board Game

Literacy

Have you listened to the story “Christopher Nibble” yet?  Try to use the wordboost words today when you are chatting with people.  Ask someone to help you keep a score of how many times you manage to use one of the boost words.  Can you beat 5?

Here is the video link for ‘Christopher Nibble’ if you haven’t managed to listen to it yet. The boost words you are listening for are – deep, imagine, protect, borrow.

Have fun!

Good morning,

Another day of fun and learning lies ahead. What will you do today?  Yesterday early evening I was outside in my garden, even though it was very windy, planting some seeds to grow corn flowers as well as other wild flowers.  Have you ever planted some seeds.  I’ll keep you informed of their progress over the coming weeks.

Here is the link for the grid below that was posted yesterday, this just saves you from having to scroll down to find it.

If you are having any difficulty with any of the home learning activities please remember to ask your question in the comments section below. We will try to answer your question as soon as we are able to.

Home Learning Grid

How are you getting on with the alien story? I finished my story yesterday but I think I made a few mistakes again. Can you spot them?

A little green alien wif a fluffy tail went on A rocket. (2 mistakes)

the rocket was fast and took the alien to the beach. (1 mistake)

At the beach thi alien went in the sea for a swim (2 mistakes)

“i love the beach”, said the alien, hee didn’t want to go back to the moon. (2 mistakes)

Literacy

On a device find the ‘phonics bloom website’. At the top of the page select the button ‘phonics games’.

I would suggest picking phase 2.

When you are playing games you may wish to select phase 1 if some sounds are too tricky or select phase 3 if you need more of a challenge.

There are lots of different free phonics games for you to play – I think that the game ‘match cards’ is a great game too. It will develop your reading skills. The link below will take you straight to the ‘match cards’ game.

Numeracy

Watch the videos below to practise counting in 10’s:

Have a go at counting in 10’s at home. I have attached a counting in 10’s worksheet below for you to have a go at too. Be careful because some of the counting sequences go from smallest to largest and others largest to smallest.

Counting in 10’s

Good luck!
