Good morning everyone!
Well done to everyone who managed to complete yesterday’s work. We will explain the structure on here each day but please refer to the additional uploaded documents for each specific lesson guidance and resources.
Reading
It is essential that children continue to read every single day. This should be for a minimum of 20 minutes.
Oxford Owl – This resource has an exciting range of carefully levelled books to help children learn to read, and love to read.
If parents and children decide to use this resource, we ask they access phase 5 books. Go to https://www.oxfordowl.co.uk/ and select ‘my class login’. Scroll down to the red box ‘eBook Library for Letters & Sounds’

Resources for questioning your child while they are reading
Maths
Today we are going to focus on counting money in pounds. I have uploaded an additional document named 'CHALLENGE'. This is only intended as extension work to challenge and push your learning. You are not required to complete this sheet. The WhiteRose sheet is more than enough. Make sure you watch the video carefully and pause to answer questions on the worksheet.
Please follow the link and complete the worksheet attached to the class blog.
1. Watch the video (either on your own or with your child).
2. Find a calm space where your child can work for about 20-30 minutes.
3. Use the video guidance to support your child as they work through a lesson.
Complete on the sheet (if you have a printer) or write your answers in your home learning book.

Sumdog can be played from home, as well as in the classroom. To log in from home, students use the same details as they do in class.

RE
The new topic in RE this term is Books.
Explore, discuss and investigate the many books which we use at home and at school and how and where each one might be used. Share together favourite books, why they are favourites and notice how people choose the same and different types of books.
- What types of books are there at home and at school?
- What uses do books have? (e.g. a timetable, telephone directory, text books, photo albums etc.)
- How do these books differ?
- What books do you like and why?
- What would a world without books be like?
Can you draw and colour your favourite book? Can you write 5 sentences about why it is your favourite? You might want to include: your favourite characters, your favourite part of the story and why you like to read it.
Keep smiling! J
