Year 1 Home Learning Monday January 25th 2021

Date: 22nd Jan 2021 @ 11:14am

Happy Monday morning everyone! We hope you had a restful weekend. Please keep sending us all your fabulous learning on Seesaw. We are really enjoying it all. We will be uploading our own message to Seesaw every Friday.

Reading

It is great that so many of you are changing your books regularly. Just let us know when you need some more. We have loved seeing the videos of your reading.

Your reading challenge today is to talk about your book. Who is your favourite character? Why? Would you like to live in this setting? Why/why not?

Remember you can also find a huge library of eBooks at the Oxford Owl (link in the Home Learning button at the top of out class page).

Contact the school office if you need new books sent home.

Phonics

Visit Seesaw for your Phonics learning this morning. We will be looking at the long U sound this week.

Keep having a go at your Sumdog spellings. Word building/spelling practice is key to understanding phonics and spelling patterns. Do what you can. Our new word list is on the long U sound and we have also created a key words list to have a go on. 

English

Start your day with a pirate dance!

We are continuing with our pirate learning this week. You have all done really well to remember your Think Pinks in your writing.

You are planning your pirate story today.  Listen to Sayeeda's story again. Think about all the pirate learning you have already done. What is going to happen in your pirate story? Think about who the characters are in your story. Is your story about Sayeeda or are you going to be in the story? Are there other characters in the story? Talk about your ideas before your draw your pictures on the story map. Use your story map to tell your pirate story to someone in your family. Are you using the pirate words you collected in your word bank last week?

Maths

Watch the videos on number bonds below. Sing along to the songs to remember your number facts. Play a game of Number Fact Bingo (games 1 or 2) by choosing 6 numbers between 0-20 and cross them off when the matching question comes up.

Today we are going to look at the relationship between addition and subtraction and related facts. Watch the video on   Related facts here. Work through the worksheet linked below.

We have also started a new addition and subtraction challenge on sumdog on related facts. Answer as many questions as you can. 10 minutes a day makes a huge difference to number fluency.

R.E.

As this is the  last week in the Special People topic you are going to think about all the learning you have done.Talk about who is special to you, who does special jobs in church and the stories you have listened to about Jesus. In each star on the sheet write or draw something that you could do to say ‘Thank you’ to the special people you know at home, in school and the parish family.

Science

Today we are looking again at everyday materials. Open the file below and have a go at the challenges. Have a go at the Venn diagram activity revisiting any properties / materials you used last week. Take some photos of what you've found and record how you have sorted your materials. 

Well done on completing your learning for today.
