Flash Cards

A few children have now learned ALL of the flash cards. This is a HUGE achievement and I am incredibly proud of their hard work and determination. For these children their new challenge is to spell these words. They will be tested on the spellings of these words once a week and moved onto the next set when they can confidently spell them.

History/Computing

The children have been set a challenge on Purple Mash (Astronaut Mashcam). The children can find this in their ‘To Do’s’ and their log in’s can be found on their reading logs. As we are learning about Neil Armstrong, the children have been asked to write what it was like when they visited the moon. The children should think about how they were feeling and use their senses to describe what it was like on the moon/in space.

Year 1 Home Learning 14.2.20 (due 28.2.20)

Maths

Number bonds to 10. The children’s main learning focus over half term is to know their number bonds to 10 fluently and confidently. When I say the number in bold the children should respond with the following numbers. It is is so important that the children understand the relationship between these numbers.

zero ten

one nine

two eight

three seven

four six

five five

six four

seven three

eight two

nine one

ten zero

Ongoing learning on IXL ‘Addition up to 10 and 20’ M.1-M.15.

Science

In science, the children have been learning all about materials. Inspired by the story, ‘A Planet Full of Plastic’, I would love the children to do some more research into plastic. As a class we have discussed how plastic is fantastic, but that sometimes plastic ends up where it isn’t meant to be e.g. oceans, parks etc. The children have been challenged to make an eye catching poster all about plastic, the children can be as creative as they would like.

Maths

 The children have got a worksheet to  complete and stick in. The children need to find the missing  number bond to 20. For an extra challenge, the   children can write out their bar model as a part-part-whole model! This can be done in their home learning books. The children may want to use physical objects to help with their counting -  mini-marshmallows are great fun.

Show and Tell (last day of term)

As we have been learning about Baptism, I would love the children to bring in a photo of their own baptism, to share with the class. You are more than welcome to email these to me.

The children have a copy of the story map they have been learning. I would like the children to practise this, with actions. The aim is for them to be able to retell the story, off by heart, using the story map.

Maths

Ongoing learning challenge - IXL maths ‘Numbers and Counting up to 20’. There are lots of questions on here, I would like the children to do as many as they can over the next couple of weeks.
