Home Learning blog - Day 27

Good Morning Year 1!

I am so very excited to read all of your stories today! I love being able to see all of the progress you are making at home and I am so proud of you all! 

Please send your stories into: 
Year1@st-agnes.towerhamlets.sch.uk   

Here are your learning activities for today: 
​

Reading: 
Today we are starting a new book. It is called​ 'A Monster mistake'. You can find it here: 
www.oxfordowl.co.uk/for-home/find-a-book/library-page/
 
Before you start reading, look at the title and cover.
What do you think Chip is pointing to?

Read the book from cover to cover to familiarise yourself with the story – you will answer questions on the book tomorrow. 

You could also have a go at 'Play Activity 1'.  

Phonics: 
Today you are going to learn a new sound. It is a split diagraph - this is when two letters make one sound, but they are separated with a consonant. You are going to look at the a-e sound. This makes the sound in words such as cake, bake, make, lake. In school we say the rhyme "a-e, a-e, bake a cake". 

English: To retell a story in sequence.
Today we are going to finish off our stories. I hope you are as excited as I am. You are all so creative and have such wonderful ideas that your stories are always better than mine, and I cannot wait to all of your lovely ideas!

If you would like to listen to the story again, here is the video:

Here is the last bit of my story - remember to use all of your previous ideas, read what you have already written and have lots of fun with it! 

Here is my story from start to finish. 

Don't forget to send your finished stories to:

​I am so excited to read them!!!! 

Maths: To compare numbers within 50.
Here is the next lesson in the sequence of learning. Join in with the lesson and complete the questions when instructed to!

Design and Technology: To use a range of materials to create a product.
Following on from your lesson on Tuesday, you are going to use your plan to create your own cape/costume today. This is so you can wear your cape and tell your own version of Where the Wild Things are! 

You will need an old (white) t-shirt as I mentioned earlier in the week and anything else you can find to help you decorate it! I would love to see pictures of the finished product! 
​
Follow the video to make the basic cape shape and decorate how ever you wish to! 

Have a tremendous Thursday everyone,
