Good morning Reception, 
Today is the last day of the first half of Spring term.  That means next week is half term when you can have a break from your learning and have a well deserved rest.  You have worked so hard these past few weeks.  I am so proud of everything you have done.  Well done! 

Well done Aimee on your writing.  You are doing so well!  Thank you for sharing your learning with me.  

Here is your learning for today:
  • Reading:  Did you know that today is Chinese New Year?  Have a look on Myon for a book about Chinese New Year.  www.myon.co.uk/index.html      Here are two that I found:

  • Counting:  Can you find all the numbers from 0 to 20 when you are out for a walk?  Try to find them in order.  You could take a photo of each number as you find it.  
  • Writing: Use your sounds to write these simple words (cot, rat, man, fish).  Look at the pictures below to see which words you are going to write.  Each time, look at the picture, say the word e.g fish, say each sound in the word f - i - sh  then write each of the sounds and say them as you write them f - i - sh, finally say the word again - fish.  Remember there will be no finger spaces between each letter because you are writing one word.  There should be no capital letters. 
Picture
Picture
Picture
Picture
  • You can write a sentence about a picture after you have written the word.  e.g A cot is a bed.  Use your high frequency words and sounds like you have been doing over the last few weeks.  Don't forget a capital letter to start the sentence, finger spaces and a full stop to finish.
  • Do some exercise: Start by running on the spot. A grown-up will shout out different commands e.g. ‘faster’ or ‘slower’. Listen to the command and change your speed. Next try shouting ‘up’, and when you hear it, jump up high. When you hear the word ‘down’, bend down and try to touch the floor. 
  • Keep talking: Do you think being a kid or an adult is most fun?  Why?  I think being a ... is most fun because.....
Phonics: Watch the phonics video below.  You will need paper and something to write with. 
​Writing: This is our last 'pen disco'.  I hope you have enjoyed it.  Practise writing the patterns while listening to music that you like. You need paper or card and something to write with.  See the video for today's pattern.  There is also a picture of the finished patterns to help you.   
Picture
​Literacy:  Practise your reading.  Today's activity is the same as yesterdays.  Choose which picture matches the sentence underneath.  First look at both pictures.  Talk about what is in each one.  Look at the sentence.  Are there any words you know (high frequency words)? 
Point to each word and say the word as you read it.  Say each sound in the word for the words you don't know. Decide which picture matches the sentence you have read.  
Maths:  Today is.... Tomorrow will be..... Yesterday was.......

​Look at the picture below.  Think carefully about the questions.  We count the objects to find how many there are altogether. Can you find objects in your house to count how many altogether?  e.g There are 2 boys and 3 girls.  There are 5 people altogether.  There are 4 forks and 4 knives.  There are 8 altogether. 
​Well done for working so hard this half term.  You have done really well.    Do something you enjoy on your own or with your family -  draw a picture, go outside for a walk, do a puzzle, play with your toys, do some cooking, dance to some music, read a book.

  • Reading: Enjoy sharing a book of your own or listen to a story on Myon.  www.myon.co.uk/index.html

  • Writing: Use your sounds to write these simple words (dog, map, leg, pen).  Look at the pictures below to see which words you are going to write.  Each time, look at the picture, say the word e.g dog, say each sound in the word d - o - g  then write each of the sounds and say them as you write them d - o - g, finally say the word again - dog.  Remember there will be no finger spaces between each letter because you are writing one word.  There should be no capital letters.

Picture
  • You can write a sentence about a picture after you have written the words.  e.g It is a long leg.  Use your high frequency words and sounds.  Don't forget a capital letter to start the sentence, finger spaces and a full stop to finish.
  • Keep active:  Play a game of hide and seek with your family. This is a great game to play, whatever the weather, because you can play it inside or out. Can you think of a great place to hide? 
  • Keep talking:  Play a describing game with someone at home. Choose an object that you can see and describe it to the other player using three clues.  Use full sentences e.g. The object I can see has ....  It is near the.....
Phonics: Watch the phonics video below.  You will need paper and something to write with.  ​
Writing: We are going to do 'pen disco' again today.  Practise writing the patterns while listening to music that you like. You need paper or card and something to write with.  See the video for today's pattern.  There is also a picture of the finished patterns to remind you.  Enjoy!  
Picture
Literacy:  Practise your reading.  Look at the sheet below.  Don't worry if you can't print it.  
Today is a slightly different activity.  Today you have to choose which picture matches the sentence underneath.  First look at both pictures.  Talk about what is in each one.  Look at the sentence.  Are there any words you know (high frequency words)? 
Point to each word and say the word as you read it.  Say each sound in the word for the words you don't know. Decide which picture matches the sentence you have read.  ​
Maths:  What day is it today?  What day was it yesterday? What day will it be tomorrow?  

Watch the White Rose Maths video by clicking on the link below.  Today's session is Growing 6, 7, 8  WEEK 2  Making Pairs

whiterosemaths.com/homelearning/early-years/growing-6-7-8-week-2/
Picture
Have a go at making pairs.  You could collect some natural objects if you go out for a walk or you could use a group of your favourite toys or any objects you can find around your house. You could sort pairs of socks on washing day.  Use different numbers of objects and make pairs of the objects.  Remember pairs mean 2 of something.  How many pairs have you made?  Do you have any objects left over?  
R.E. Next Wednesday is a special day in the Church's calendar.  It is Ash Wednesday.  When we go to church on Ash Wednesday, a Cross is made on our foreheads with ashes to show that we want to grow more like Jesus. 
Ash Wednesday marks the beginning of Lent. Lent is a special time when we think about Jesus, how he grew in love and how we will try to grow in love, goodness, kindness and helpfulness like him.
Talk to someone in your family about what you could try to do during Lent to be more like Jesus.  We try to care more, share more and help each other. What could you do during Lent? Maybe you could help by keeping your room tidy.  You could be kind to your brother or sister and share your toys.

Good morning Reception,
I hope you are having a good week. You are doing really well with your learning at home.  Not long to go now until half term.  
Here is your learning for today: 
  •  Reading: Enjoy a book of your own or listen to one on Myon.   www.myon.co.uk/index.html
  • Counting:  Play 'Don't say 20'.  This is a game for 2 or more players.  Take turns counting to 20.  The aim of the game is NOT to say 20.  On your turn, choose to continue the count with one, two or three numbers.  Then the next player has a turn.  e.g The first player counts 1,2.  The next player could count 3 or 3, 4 or 3, 4, 5.  Keep taking turns to count until someone says 20.  The winner is the person who doesn't say 20.  
  • Writing: Use your sounds to write these simple words (net, hat, pin, bed).  Look at the pictures below to see which words you are going to write.  Each time, look at the picture, say the word e.g net, say each sound in the word n - e - t  then write each of the sounds and say them as you write them n - e - t, finally say the word again - net.  Remember there will be no finger spaces between each letter because you are writing one word.  There should be no capital letters. 
Picture
Picture
Picture
Picture
  • You can write a sentence or more about a picture after you have written the words.  e.g The hat is red.  Use your high frequency words and sounds like you have been doing over the last few weeks.  Don't forget a capital letter to start the sentence, finger spaces and a full stop to finish.
  • Do some exercise: Try playing Top Ten - see instructions below
Keep talking:  Which one does not belong?  See image below.
Use full sentences to say which one you think does not belong.  I think number .... does not belong because.....  Ask someone you live with what they think.  You could even try saying I agree/disagree with you because ....
Picture
Phonics: Watch the phonics video below.  You will need paper and something to write with.  ​
Writing: It's time for 'pen disco'.  Practise writing the patterns while listening to music that you like. You need paper or card and something to write with.  See the video for today's pattern.  There are also a picture of the finished patterns to help you.  Enjoy!  
Picture
Literacy:   Practise your reading using the sentences below.  Look at the picture, talk about what you can see.  Are there any high frequency words you know?  Point to each word in the sentence and use your sounds to robot any words you don't know.  
Maths:  What day is it today?  What day was it yesterday? What day will it be tomorrow?

Picture
Make another set of memory cards to play with.  Draw different representations of 6, 7 or 8 dots on paper (see the ladybirds below).  Just draw dots today, not pictures.  Cut the cards out.  Turn them over.  Turn two over at a time.  Look really carefully at the dots that you can see.  Are they the same?  Can you say why they are the same?  e.g They are both 8. Are they different?  Can you say why they are different?  e.g This one has 6 but the other one has 8.   
Make Your Own Small World
Set up an imaginative small world with mini figures (people and/or animals), building blocks, cars and your own trees and buildings made from paper and card.

    If you click on the purple cog in the top right hand corner you can change to a 0-9 dice.  
    Keep a tally of how many times you have bounced the ball altogether.  
  • Writing: We are going to use our sounds to write some more simple words (pig, cat, ten, mud).  Look at the pictures below to see which words you are going to write today.  
  • Each time, look at the picture (the last picture is mud). Say the word e.g mud, say each sound in the word  m - u - d  then write each of the sounds and say them as you write them m - u - d, finally say the word again - mud.  Remember there will be no finger spaces between each letter because you are writing one word.  There should be no capital letters.

  • If you want, you can write one or more sentences about the pictures after you have written the words.  e.g The pig is pink.  Use your high frequency words and sounds to help you.  Don't forget a capital letter to start the sentence, finger spaces and a full stop to finish.
  • Keep active - Balloon ball      You can have endless fun playing with balloons; catch, tennis and seeing how long you can keep it off the ground. 
  • Don't forget to keep talking - Would you rather?  Think of two things that are related e.g Would you rather have a pet panda or a pet zebra?  Then discuss the options with someone in your family.  Remember to use full sentences to give your opinion.  I would rather have a pet zebra because ....     Here are some more ideas - Would you rather read minds or be invisible?  Would you rather live in the sky or under the sea?  Would you rather have 3 arms or 3 legs?  
Phonics:  Join in with today's lesson.  You will need paper and something to write with.
​Writing: Today we are going to do another 'pen disco'.  Practise writing the patterns while listening to some music that you like.  You need paper or card and something to write with.  See the video for today's pattern.  There is also a photo of the patterns to remind you.  Enjoy!

Literacy:  Here are some more sentences for you to practise reading.  Look at the picture, talk about what you can see.  Are there any high frequency words you know?  Point to each word in the sentence and use your sounds to robot any words you don't know.  
Maths:  Today is ....  Tomorrow will be..... Yesterday was......

Get a selection of toys (up to 10) and put them in a basket or box.  How many toys do you have?  Close your eyes and ask someone to take a toy out.  Can you say which toy is missing?  After you have taken one out, how many toys do you have now?  Is it more or less toys?  Try again with different toys.  What happens if you put one more toy in?  Can you spot which is the extra toy? Are there more or less toys now?
I hope you enjoyed YolanDa's Band Jam yesterday.  Today you can join in again by making your own instruments.
  
Create some home made instruments.  Make a guitar using an empty tissue box and rubber bands. Make shakers using toilet rolls (cover both ends with paper), empty milk bottles, cracker or cereal boxes filled with rice, lentils, beans or pasta.  Make a water xylophone - fill glass jars with different amounts of water, use a spoon to tap each jar - what sounds can you hear? Decorate your instruments once you've made them.
Use the Cbeebies link below for ideas on how to make any of these instruments -

Choose your favourite song.  Sing and play along using your instruments.
