Home Learning blog - Day 19

Good Morning Year 1 and happy Monday!

​Welcome back to another week of home learning!! Last week, I was so impressed with your Wild Thing creations. Here are the ones that have been sent in, can you spot yours? 

Remember, please send you work to me via this email address: 
Year1@st-agnes.towerhamlets.sch.uk 

Here are your activities for today: 
Reading: 

This is the next book band level. It may be slightly more difficult to read – let me know how you get on!

Looking at the front cover of 'The Strange Beast', most of the characters look shocked or perhaps a little scared, but Biff, Chip, Wilf and Wilma are smiling.
What do you think they are smiling at? Why do you think they have different expressions?
 
Our word of the week this week is ‘eagerly’ You will find it in this book. Do you know what it means?

Here are some other words you will find in this book, can you read them?
more, strange, woman, before, asked, people

​Phonics: 
Today's new sound is 'ue'. We say the rhyme, 'ue, ue, blue glue'.
Can you make up your own action for this to help you remember the sound? I am really looking forward to learning all your actions when we return to school. 

English: To generate ideas for my own story. 
To start our thinking today, watch the video in the learn section on this page:
www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/articles/zmqtnrd
 
Now, begin to generate ideas for your own story. Think about:
What magical thing will start the adventure? What happens in the original story? How else could you start your adventure? 

How will you get to the setting? How does Max get to the Wild Things? How could you get there?

What will happen when you get there? What happens when Max reaches the Wild Things? What will happen in your story? 

Talk about these things with an adult at home. You could draw pictures to help you remember these things or write sentences to answer the questions above. Record your ideas in your own way, how you think is best! 


Maths: To count to 50 by making 10s. 
Find today's maths lesson here: 
whiterosemaths.com/homelearning/year-1/spring-week-5-number-place-value-within-50/

Join in and the have a go at making 5 groups of 10. You could use objects from around your house to help you! Cutlery is great for this, or you could draw pictures to illustrate it too. 
When you count them can you count in 10s up to 50? 


P.E. 
​Have a go at creating your own movement sequence, this comes into gymnastics! 
There is video below to explain this further for you!

Have a wonderful day Year 1!!
