Tuesday 12.5.2020
Good morning and welcome to Tuesday's home learning:
Phonics:
Revisit and review: Tricky and high frequency words (see document below)
Have 9 words on the board- children to attempt to read them all in 10 seconds. (see new words)
Teach: Focus on polysyllabic words- explain that these are words with two or more syllables. This means we can almost chop long words into chunks.
Children watch video to help explain: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9S7DY2lgJlU
Practise: Please see Phonics. Tuesday. Practise Activities for all the below activities –
Green activity Using the powerpoint- read the words for the first 4 slides and draw a picture of them in your book.
Amber activity Read all the words. Can you say each one in a sentence and write them down? Can you write one of your sentences?
Red activity Read all the words. Can you choose two words and write them into a sentence? Repeat the activity so that your child writes down three sentence. E.g. I have a sandwich in my lunchbox, I have the softest giftbox. There is a chimpanzee on my shelving.
Guided Reading:Please read ‘The Lost Cow’ E book on Oxford Owls Website. https://www.oxfordowl.co.uk/api/interactives/13018.html
Remember to reread sentences to develop fluency. When you have finished, go back through the pages and ask them to point out the capital letter at the beginning of each sentence and the full stop at the end.
Close the book. In their home learning book can you draw and write a label the insects Nok and Max find in the grass?
Check they remembered all insects- snail, ant and wasp. They can either label each insect or write a sentence for each, for example; ‘Nok and Max see a snail’ ‘Nok and Max see an ant’ ‘Nok and Max see a wasp’.
Maths
*ALL – watch https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sL76_VtvtgQ
Green – Draw in to your book numberblocks 13 and 14, and label them with their correct numbers (there is a picture attached for reference)
Amber – Draw in to your book numberblocks 12, 13, 14, and 15 and label them with their correct numbers (there is a picture attached for reference), how many different ways can you draw them? With 10 blocks in a line and the others attached? Or in a cool different shape. (see attached file for reference and help)
Red – Pick 3 teen numberblocks to draw in to your book, label them and write underneath how they are made - for example 13 is 10 and 3 more. How many different ways can you make your teen numbers, eg 13 is 10 and 3 more it is also 7 and 6 more. *Use any loose parts/pennies/counting blocks you may have at home to support this, or your numberblocks you made.
