Hello Year 1!

I hope you have all had a great weekend despite the weather!

Here are today’s tasks:

Spellings

Maths video       Maths task

The video is quite long today, so it may be a good idea to pause me when I’ve finished teaching the first activity. You can then complete that activity on the sheet before watching the rest of the video and completing the second activity.

I advise you to do this on the video but not until the end! Silly me!

Phonics – ue

Let me know you get on! Please continue to send me your learning or anything else you have been up to.

Hello Year 1!

I hope you’re all OK and enjoying the sunshine when you’ve finished your learning.

In yesterday’s phonics task, did anyone spot my mistake? If you did, send me an email to tell me what it was. Whilst you’re emailing me, why not send some of your learning for me to put onto the Class News page!?

Onto today’s tasks:

Reading 

Facts about tigers

Hello everyone!

Hope you have had a good week! Thanks very much for all your hard work.

It is my last week posting the Year 2 learning as Mrs Taylor and Mrs Freeman will be back setting you your three tasks from Monday! I’ve really enjoyed being back in Year 2 for a few weeks. Thank you!

Okay, here are the answers from yesterday’s learning:

Y2 – Reading – Thursday – ANSWERS

It’s our Love of Reading session today. I’d like you to sit down with a good book and enjoy reading together. You might share a book or your child may want to read independently. Talk about what you’re reading and ask some questions.

For maths, we’re doing the BBC challenges again. Remember to have a go at the Year 3 ones if you want a further challenge!

Finally, it’s another week of Andy Goldsworthy’s natural art challenges. Andy Goldsworthy Challenges – Week 3

If the weather’s bad, you can do some observational drawing of something natural: a banana, some flowers, a turnip, your brother. It is up to you! If you fancy doing something different, have a look at these arty videos for some inspiration.
