P1 Home Learning Thursday 4th June

Good morning everyone. Here is what we would like you to work on today. Please also see plan for more details.

Literacy

Writing a set of instructions

· We would like you to write your own set of instructions for planting seeds You should use words like first, then, next and finally at the start of your sentence for each instruction.

· For example – First put some soil in a pot.

· Miss Mackay will post some photos of her planting seeds for you to follow. Photos to come today.

Numeracy

· Esti-mysteries

Use your knowledge of numbers to solve the problem, use the first recording sheet to record your estimates-it might be easier to cross off the numbers as you read each clue (this very quickly helps to reduce the range of possible numbers). If you would rather not print the recording sheet the numbers could be written into the home learning jotter instead.

Perhaps you could create your own game of estimation bullseye

(all you need is a glass or cup, some small objects e.g. buttons, lego, marbles, etc and a partner)

Literacy – listening to, and reading, rhyming words

You’re all working very hard and I’m sure you’re looking forward to making some Samba music this evening.

Listening/reading:

L.I: To recognise rhyming words

Listen to the traditional song, Katie Bairdie. I’m sure you’ve heard it before. Listen specifically for the rhyming words. Can you discuss the rhyming words with someone at home?

Now read the lyrics for the song. Can you read the rhyming words? If you can, print out the example and circle the rhyming words. If, like me, you don’t have a printer at home, just write the matching rhyming words on paper or in your jotter. Katie Bairdie lyrics

Remember, rhyming words usually appear at the end of a line. They aren’t always spelled the same but they sound the same. Here is an example:

Who wants a friend like Snorty Bull

Who kicks and stamps and thinks he’s cool.

Who wants a friend like Snorty Bull

We don’t!

The Daily Draw: Samba

Maths:

L.I: To show understanding of fractions.

In maths today, we are going to use our knowledge and understanding of ½ and ¼ to clap out musical notes. Please also challenge yourself with a Fractions Challenge. These are all called ‘Chilli Challenge’ and instead of Mild, Spicy, Hot they are called ‘Nice and Spicy’, ‘It’s getting hot’ and ‘Burning up’.

Musical Maths!
