I hope you are all still managing to have fun now that the sunshine has left us for a little while. I have seen some fantastic home learning this week. It really puts a smile on my face seeing what you having been doing, and I have loved sharing it through this Blog. I’ve had some real laugh out loud moments this week looking at what some of you have been up to. I hope you enjoy looking at what your friends have been doing as much as I do!
This weeks tasks are below.
Weekly Maths Tasks (plus Numberblocks)
Week 2 - Reception - Summer week 3 - The Very Hungry Caterpillar
Week 2 - Year 1 - please scroll down to Week 1 - weight and mass.
Please feel free to access activities from both year groups.
Receptions maths is linked to The Very Hungry Caterpillar.
Even if you are familiar with the story it’s worth watching this wonderful animated film of The Very Hungry Caterpillar, purely for the music. It’s fantastic to watch and listen to. You could get so much out of this just discussing how the music helps to tell the story, how it makes you feel, and what instruments you can hear. The children will amaze you their knowledge, as they have spent a lot of time working on this with Mrs Bramley during their music sessions.
Weekly English tasks (plus daily reading and phonics session) This can be done in any order.
Daily Read, write inc session. Link to daily lesson These run daily on YouTube.
Talk for writing - Reception Booklet
Don’t forget Read, write inc are running their new Story time with Nick, with new stories every Monday, Wednesday and Friday.
Spelling activities:
Please learn to spell and write the following words. You could do this by:
- writing on paper (look, cover, write, check)
- outside using chalk - jump on each letter as you sound out and blend the word
- in the bath with foam letters
- in shaving foam or sand
- by writing the letters on pebbles and ordering them correctly
- words written on card and cut up into pieces to make a word jigsaws.
- is
- put
- pull
- full
- push
Here’s a trickier set if these are too easy for your child.
- said
- so
- do
- one
- once
Reading comprehension - VE Day. There are three level of the same comprehension here. I would use level one for Reception/year 1. Encourage your child to read any words they can, then help them to use their phonics to sound out unfamiliar ones. Then work through the first set of questions, showing them how to look back in the text to find the answers.
Weekly Wider Curriculum Tasks
History - The 75th Anniversary of VE Day On Friday it is the 75th Anniversary of VE Day. Follow this link to learn more about VE Day using the KS1 link. What is VE Day? Why to we celebrate it? There are also lots of nice links to music, PHSE art and DT activities.
Computing - Purple Mash is a fantastic online learning platform who are currently running a free 14 day trial. We would like you to take advantage of this over the next two weeks and would like Aire class to the Mini-mash section.
This has lots of the games and activities we use in class, including Simple city and 2Paint. It also has lots of other 2simple games for maths, music, and many more.

Aire Class Ongoing Task
While we are in Lock down it would be a lovely idea to create a Time capsule containing memories of our special time spent with our families. This would be an ongoing project for the whole family.
Be as creative as you can be!
Here is a link to an handy article about how to make a Covid19 Time capsule with your child.
This link takes you to a booklet your child can complete to capture their memories.
There is also a link for parents to complete their own booklet as well!
