Reading

Today I'm going to share a story with you that you can listen to and follow the words as they are read.

Do you have a dog like George?

Maths: Red, Orange, Yellow and Green groups

Don’t forget to check out the positional language prompt. This includes lots of key words you might see and some explanations!

Instead of using left and right to describe the directions you need to take today we will be using the words clockwise and anti-clockwise.

Turning clockwise is when you turn towards the right.
Turning anti-clockwise is when you turn towards the left.
You will also come across these amounts in your instructions:
¼ turn & ¾ turn, take a look at the help sheet for today’s learning. It will show you how something moves when moving these amounts in the different directions.

I hope you will be able to help the messy pirate find all of his belongings!

Maths: Blue group

This week we have learnt about fractions. We have found ½ of shapes, ½ of amounts, ¼ of shapes and ¼ of amounts. Watch the video below to recap your understanding of fractions:

Literacy: All groups

How did you get on yesterday?

Today you are going to put the final touches to your comic strip.

Under each picture is a caption box. A caption is the words that describe or explain the picture.

Today you are going to write sentences for each picture that tells the reader what happens in the story. Remember you need to use a capital letter to start a sentence and a full stop at the end of a sentence. You may need to use an exclamation mark (!) at the end of a sentence to show how someone is feeling. (angry, happy, sad, scared, excited)

When you have finished writing your caption boxes make sure you check you have finished the pictures, the sound / action words and captions. Don’t forget to add colour to your pictures too.

I would love to see your finished comic so please send them to me when you have finished.

If you enjoyed making your comic strip, you may want to write another comic adventure that Traction Man goes on!

Computing

In our last Music lesson, we learnt about a string instrument called the violin, can you remember?

Today we are learning about an interesting instrument called the accordion.

After you have watched the video, click on the worksheet.

There is an Accordion for you to colour in, after you have written 3 facts that you have learnt about the accordion, I’ve done the first one for you. 

P.E

For PE this week we are going to be learning how to control our speed when we move. For this you will need a big open space, a garden if you have one or maybe walk to the local park.  Today we are going to jog, run and sprint and by the end of the lesson you will be able to describe how to do each of these.
