Maths

Year 1 -

Year 1 - For our maths warm up let’s see if you can recognise numbers, remember to try and challenge yourselves. https://www.topmarks.co.uk/learning-to-count/blast-off

Your learning for today is all about doubling. I’ve attached a power point that explains doubling and then a worksheet for you to try. 

Remember to practise your times tables with Times Tables Rock Stars.

Blue group - let’s start off finding number 10-20. Listen carefully to the number that is said before clicking on the rocket. https://www.topmarks.co.uk/learning-to-count/blast-off  

Your learning today is 2D shapes. I’ve attached a power point for you below and a fun colouring worksheet. Have fun!

if you cannot print the colouring sheets, see if you can find different shapes around your house and garden.

Year 2 - Today you are going to practise subtracting numbers.

You should draw the largest number then subtract the smaller number by crossing off the tens and ones.

For your challenge you should work out the answers first so you can work out if the answers are true or false!

Literacy

Today you are going to use your planning chart from yesterday to write a description of your wheeled toy.

Write sentences using each line of the chart to help you. Don’t forget a capital letter to start your sentence and a full stop at the end. You can also use conjunctions and, but, because, so that to write longer sentences.

Here is an example.

My wheeled toy is a bike. It is new and I had it for Christmas.

It has two shiny, silver handle bars at the front so I can hold on tightly and steer it in the right direction. It has a long, metal brake on the right handle bar to help me to stop safely.

You can change the order of your planning chart to write your sentences if you wish to make it more interesting to the reader. Here is an example:

Instead of It has a long, metal brake on the right handle bar to help me to stop safely. You could start with where the brake is first. On the right handle bar there is a long, metal brake to help me stop safely.

Remember to send me your finished description!
