Home Learning blog - Day 2 (06.01.21)

Good morning Year 1!

I hope you all managed to access the necessary learning yesterday and enjoyed completing your work in a different format at home. I am so blown away with the work that some of you sent in, you have dived straight back into your learning and I could not be more proud! 

Here is the email address to send your work to and to use to contact me if you have any questions or queries. 
​info@st-agnes.towerhamlets.sch.uk
​
Here are your lessons for today:
Reading:
Just like in school, it would be great if you could spend about 15 minutes in the morning reading to someone at home. Read books you have at home or use MyOn or the Oxford Owl website.
​Here are the weblinks for both:
​

You will need to create and register a free account on this website to access lots of e-books for you to read

Phonics: 
You will be continuing with the phase 4 sounds in lesson 21 on the YouTube channel. 

English: 
For you english lesson today, watch this short clip about acrostic poems. 

Can you make your own acrostic poem for the word 'WINTER'? Here are some words and phrases that I have thought of that you may want to use too. See if you can challenge yourself by thinking of some of your own words and phrases too! 

Maths: 
Today you will be comparing numbers. 
Watch the video on White Rose: 
whiterosemaths.com/homelearning/year-1/week-12-number-place-value-within-20/

Then complete the worksheet: 
(if you do not have access to a printer, on a piece of paper draw/write/copy the questions and complete)

Remember there is the extra challenge on Purple Mash for you to complete this week too! 

RE: 
Here is a display in school that shows the Epiphany. At home today, can you discuss with those you live with, what happened at Epiphany? 
​Who can you see in the picture? 
Who arrived? Where did they arrive? 
What did they bring with them? 

It would be great if you could write your about the discussion you have had. It is important to keep practising your handwriting at every opportunity whilst you are at home. 

​Have a great day Year 1, and I will write again to you tomorrow.
