MATHS:

Reception: To warm up your brains count to 10 and back down to 0 again. Can you do it whilst jumping?

We are going to be learning about one more and zero today. Start by watching the video.

Now, Can you show me 1 more than 1,2,3,4,and 5. You could either use toys and photograph them or draw blocks. Can you write the number sentence to go with each eg. 1 +1 =2

Year 1 and 2. Today we will continue to add ones using number bonds.

You may need to pause the video to allow for thinking time and writing down calculations and answers. The first part of the video is a warm up followed by the new learning.

Now please complete the questions. https://resources.whiterosemaths.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/Y1-Spring-Block-1-WO-Add-ones-using-number-bonds-2020.pdf

ENGLISH:

I have narrated the slides so you will hear my voice. Once you have opened the power point you need to ‘play’ the slideshow from the beginning by clicking on the slide show icon in the bottom right hand corner which should then play the whole thing automatically. I will show you a picture of where the slide show icon is on dojos. (you don’t need to click on the speaker button that appears on screen). I really hope you are able to access this as it it a clear way for me to explain to the children what to do with examples. Please let me know if you are having any problems.

Reception:

Today we will be looking at a scene from the story ‘Where the wild Things Are’. Please open the power point to find your lesson and instructions.

We have the following graphemes:

Now complete the two activities I have created in purple mash.

PSHE:

Have a look at the story in the power point. It is a story with no words. Can you tell your family the story? Discuss what is happening in the pictures and talk about how the mouse must be feeling.

WK-1-seal-story

This is about a mouse who looks at all the other animals and thinks that she is useless. When hunters come to the jungle, she realises that it is ‘good to be me!’

Year 1 and 2: Put these statements about the story in the correct order: You can do this verbally, or print them and stick in order or write them out in order. Let me know on dojos how you did it.

  • The animals get caught by hunters. They call for help.
  • At first Mouse thinks she is too useless to help, but frees the animals by chewing through the ropes.
  • Mouse wants to be special like the other animals.
  • When the other animals thank her and offer her anything she wants, she realises that they have already given her everything she wanted by helping her to understand that it really is good to be her.
  • She sees Lion who is a great leader, Gazelle who can run fast and Monkey who can climb. Mouse wishes she were special like them.
  • Mouse hides away, feeling useless and unhappy.

Reception Year 1 and Year 2: I would now like you to think about what makes you special.

Draw a picture of yourself in the middle of the page.

Write all around your picture what makes you special.

I will look forward to seeing how magnificent you are.

Geography:

Year One and Two – We are basing our geography this half term on the book ‘Where the Wild Things Are.’ Today’s key question is, how can we find our way to a place we have never visited?

Once you have watched, or read the story, can you consider: how did Max travel to the island? Create a simple map for Max to follow to get to the Wild Things. Use paper with gridlines or draw your own. Draw your own compass with the four points in the corner of your map so that Max knows he is going the right way. What natural features will Max travel through on his way to the Wild Things? I will look forward to seeing your maps. Please do colour them in too as it makes them look so much clearer when you send them over to me too.

Year Two – Now you have drawn your maps and set the path, can you use your compass directions to write a route for Max to follow?

There is a nice video from the BBC on maps that I’ve added to help you out a little bit more.

End of the day.  I’ll schedule a quick Teams call with everyone to see how the week has gone so far.  Reception yours will be at 2:30pm, Year One at 2:45pm and Year Two at 3:00pm. I hope you can all attend as it was lovely to see some of you online today.

Maths:

Reception – can you try to make 5?  How many ways can you make this? Can you use objects or draw shapes to do this?   Remember to use all numbers from 0 to 5.

http://www.littlestscholars.com/2012/03/ways-to-make-5-and-10rainbows-of-fun.html

Year One and Two – today we are finding and making number bonds. Remember a number bond is a pair of numbers that when added together make a total.  So 1 + 4 = 5, 2 + 3 = 5 and so on.

https://resources.whiterosemaths.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/Y1-Spring-Block-1-D2-Find-and-make-number-bonds-2019.pdf

RE:

Whole Class – How do you celebrate a special occasion?

Can you think of any special occasions that you have had in your life? How did you celebrate it? Did you wear special clothes, have special food, or go somewhere nice. Can you write it down and tell me about it?  Imagine we are going to have a party to celebrate the end of lockdown.  What would we need to do this? Can you design a party invitation and tell me what food we will be eating.  Will we need to dress up and where will we have the party?

Maths

Reception – Can you have a go at counting the buttons on the gingerbread man?  There are two activities – one up to 5 and one up to 10.  Start with the game up to 5 and if you think you can do hard things, try the game up to 10.  Afterwards maybe you could draw your own gingerbread man and put some buttons on him and write how many he has.  Remember to write your numbers carefully and correctly. If you are feeling really brave, draw two gingerbread men with different buttons and then try to add them all together by counting them all. Can you do that?
