Good morning Year 1!
Phonics
Today I would like you to do the lesson Read and Hold a Sentence (2), by following the link to the YouTube channel above.
Use the links below to continue practising your speedy words and for those who are whizzing through them, can you spell them? Go on, have a go!
Reading
Remember to read everyday, just like we do at school. I would love you to read for at least 20 minutes each day, be that a physical book or an ebook on Epic/Accelerated Reader. If your book has an option to quiz on AR or Epic, please remember to do so.
English
Consider how some of the Mr Men or Little Miss characters are drawn. Read some of the instructions for how to draw some of the characters.
Read with an adult and follow the instructions on how to draw Mr Strong. Can you make him look the same by following the instructions in the correct order? Can you colour him in the same colours to bring him to life? Select another character and follow the instructions to draw that character.
Additional challenge Imagine that you’ve been asked to write a set of instructions for a character who hasn’t got any instructions or design your own character. If you opt for the latter, draw the character first, telling an adult how you did it using words such as, first, next, then etc. and bossy verbs such as draw, put, wiggle etc. Remember to order your instructions with numbers so they are easy to follow.
Check for capital letters and full stops. Can someone follow your instructions to make the character?
Maths
Today I want you to practise your learning from yesterday. Have a go at the activities below and use the answer sheet to correct (and understand) any mistakes.
Have a wonderful day!
Miss Lane
