Home Learning blog - Day 24

Good Morning Year 1!

This is the last week of learning from home before half term and you get a week to relax and recharge. You have all shown such dedication to your learning and I am so proud of you all. 
I am so excited to read the stories you create this week!!

​
So, without further ado, here are your activities for today: 

​Reading: 
​Here is your new book to begin the week, Kipper and the Trolls. You can find it here:
www.oxfordowl.co.uk/for-home/find-a-book/library-page/

Before reading, look at the title and cover. What is a troll? Do you know any other stories with trolls in them?
Do you think this will be a funny story or a scary one? Can you tell me why?
 
Can you read these words before you get going?
I’m, time, your, mode, make, troll, nails, stream
Oh, looked, washed

Phonics: 
We are still going on Phase 5. Today you are looking at the 'a', sound. Like some of the other sounds we have looked at recently this letter can make two sounds - a short 'a' sound in apple and a longer sound 'a' in acorn. 
In school when we see this sound in Phase 5 we would say 'a, a, Amy has an acorn'. 
​Join in and have fun with the lesson. 

English: To retell a story in sequence.
The day has come Year 1, we are going to start writing our stories - I am very excited. I love seeing you all become authors and you always surprise me with novel and creative ideas. Your stories always turn out better than mine, and I hope these ones will be the same.   

Let's start the lesson, with reading the story again.

Today we are just going to look at the first two boxes of our plan and write a couple of sentences to begin our story. Try to use all of the discussions you have had and work you have done over the last couple of weeks to feed into your story this week. 

Here is the first part of my story written down for you too. 

Can you write yours? Remember to use your plan to help you, and use any ideas that you wrote down last week too! 

Maths: To find one more and one less.
Here's the link to the maths videos for this week: whiterosemaths.com/homelearning/year-1/spring-week-6-number-place-value-within-50/ 
Today you are doing the first lesson titled 'One more and one less.' Watch and join in with the lesson and answer the questions when directed to. This worksheet is for today and tomorrow, so you are only going to complete the first part today! 

PE: 
Here is a picture of the lesson to complete today and there is also a youtube video attached to further explain. 
Have fun Year 1!! 

Have a magical Monday Year 1!! 
See you tomorrow,
