Reading
Please continue to read regularly at home and sign the challenge boxes, just a reminder it is one box per day. It was great to see lots of certificates today, keep it up.
Maths:
Keep talking about the time, go on this interactive clock below, can you make different o’clock times and half past times? Where should the minitue hand be? Where should the hour hand be? These games on top marks are great. Keep working on counting in 2s,5s and 10s and use hit the button to practise addition, subtraction and number bonds. Click on number bonds then choose 1-10, 1-20 and up to 100, this will help with fluency.
Handwriting
This is ongoing, there are four more sheets left, the children stuck them in so let me know if there are any missing. Once you have practised I would like you to write a sentence in pre-cursive. It can be about anything, something you are looking forward to, weekend news or what you are doing in the holidys.
Once you log in, you can click on free play to explore at home or Year 1.
To find the letters, click on easy letters, then click on the letters you want to practise, at the bottom of the screen. You can click on the play button to see how you write the letter, then click on try and the bottom of the screen under the play button so you can practice each letter.
Don’t forget to practise with pencils in your purple books
Optional Challenges!
It is wonderful that the children are so excited about their learning and to see how keen they are to continue this outside of school. We welcome any opportunity to share these learning experiences with you at home, which is why we have created ‘optional challenges’ across each year group which can be explored over this Summer 2 half term.
These challenges link to the wider area of our curriculum, there are some activities to help with retrival and some with topics that are coming up.
Below you will find the optional challenges linking to the topics and areas of learning that we will be exploring this half term. These fun challenges are designed to cover a range of skills without being stressful or time consuming for you at home. You are welcome to complete them in any order you wish and it would be lovely to see pictures or examples of things that the children have enjoyed at home.
As always, thank you for your continued support.
Have a lovely weekend
Miss Drummond
