Phonics
Today I would like you to watch the set 2 and set 3 speed sounds, by clicking on the link.
Have you looked at the phonics booklet in How to help your child? It is full of activities for you to have a go at.
English
Look at your story mountain from yesterday. Write a sentence for each part of the story mountain. Don’t forget to use capital letters, punctuation and adjectives. Could you challenge yourself and use speech marks too? When you are finished you should have a five sentence story!
Reading
This week I would like you to take some time to get cosy and listen to some Peter Rabbit Tales by Beatrix Potter. Maybe you could listen to them while you draw your favourite Beatrix Potter characters.

I have also got two books for you to read this week. The second book is a bit more challenging, why don’t you read it with a grown up?

Maths
Grown up’s please go to the following website: https://whiterosemaths.com/homelearning/year-1/ . Today I would like you to do Lesson 5 Measure Capacity, with your child. There is a short video for you to watch and discuss together. Please pause the video and give your child time to explain their reasoning to you. Following on from this, there is some questions for your child to answer.
Following on from this can you work practically with a variety of containers? How many smaller containers of water does it take to fill a larger one? “The capacity of the big container is ____ little containers.”
Today I have set you a new SumDog challenge, counting in 5s and 10s within 100. You have until Monday to do this challenge.
PE
Tune in to The Body coach for ‘PE with Joe’ at 9 o’clock this morning, to get you warmed up for the day ahead. https://www.youtube.com/user/thebodycoach1
Check out this weeks PE challenge.
History
This week I have an exciting history project for you to do. I would like you to create something to commemorate the Apollo 11 Moon Landing. Can you remember what commemorate means? Maybe you could design a new coin or a stamp? Maybe you could make a space shuttle of your own? The more creative the better.
Tiger Challenge
Practise writing your name in your most beautiful cursive handwriting, refer to your cursive alphabet sheet to help you.
For those of you who would like something extra to keep you busy, I have set you two computing challenges on Purple Mash. One is typing practise on 2Type and the other is directional mazes using 2Go.
Wow, that is a lot of learning! Remember that some of these activities are ongoing challenges and you have all week to do them.
Have a super day,
Miss Lane
