Home Learning blog - Day 20

2/2/2021

 

Hello Year 1!

How are you all getting on? 
I really do love seeing all the work you send to me at: 
Year1@st-agnes.towerhamlets.sch.uk 
Being able to see all your had work makes me so proud of you all! You have continued to show great commitment to your learning at home and I could not be happier. Keep it up! 

Here are your activities to complete today: 
Reading: 
We are going to continue to look at '​The strange beast'. Find it here: 
www.oxfordowl.co.uk/for-home/find-a-book/library-page/
Start to read the book but stop at page 7.
 I would like you to make a prediction.
What do you think the people are waiting for?
What makes you think this?
 
Continue reading to page 11.
What do you think the beast could be?
One of the women in the story say the beast is bigger and stronger than twenty adults. Use this to help you make your prediction.
 
Tomorrow we will continue to read to see if you are correct.

Phonics: 
You are going to look at the sound 'u'. You may think we have seen this sound before in Phase 2, however, this letter can make two sounds. Today you will see that 'u' can make the sound in 'umbrella' but also in 'unicorn'. We say 'u, u, musical unicorns'. 
Join in with the lesson here:


English: To generate ideas for my own story.
Continuing from yesterday, think about these questions to help you generate ideas for your own story. 
 
What made him want to go home? How did he get back? What made Max want to go home, is this similar to some feelings at the start of the story? How will you decide to go home in your story? 

How did the story end? How will you end your story? Try to link this back to the start of the story too. 

Once you have thought about these points, I would like you to design a costume you will wear in your story. You are going to be 'Max' in your very own story. Use this template or draw your own. 


Maths: Numbers to 50.
Make sure you watch the lesson found here: 
whiterosemaths.com/homelearning/year-1/spring-week-5-number-place-value-within-50/ 
Answer each question when you are instructed to. 

​
RE: To understand that Jesus is the most special person in the Parish family. 
When the parish family gathers to celebrate Mass, we have an important part to play by listening to God’s Word.  The priest (or deacon if there is one) reads the Gospel, the stories of the life of Jesus, who is the most special person for the parish family.  We stand to listen to the Gospel. 

One of the stories we hear at this time of year is about Mary and Joseph taking Jesus, as a baby, to be presented in the Temple.  Mary and Joseph made many journeys to the Temple.  We remember this story on 2nd February, the Feast of the Presentation of Jesus.  Candles are blessed and carried on this day to remind us that Jesus would bring light and joy to the world.

Read a simple version of the story here, this is from God’s Story 2 page 62 based on Luke 2: 23 - 40, A visit to the Temple.  
​Mary and Joseph took Jesus to the Temple. They wanted to thank God for him. At the Temple, they met an old man called Simeon. He was a good and holy person. He often went to the Temple to pray. When he saw Jesus, Simeon took him in his arms and praised God.  He said, “This baby will bring light and joy to the world.” Mary and Joseph were very surprised by Simeon’s words and didn’t know what he meant at the time.  Simeon blessed them.
 
After that, they met Anna.  She was eighty-four years old and spent all her time in the Temple praying.  She said a thank-you prayer to God for Jesus and told everyone that he would bring happiness to those who loved God.  Mary and Joseph took Jesus home to Nazareth where he grew up and learned to praise God.
Based on Luke 2: 23 - 40

Now discuss these questions: 
  1. Who are the special people in this story?
  2. What did Simeon say about Jesus?
  3. What do you think this meant?
  4. How do you think Jesus brings light to the world?
  5. How can we bring joy to others?

​Have a brilliant day Year 1!
