Home Learning week 1
admin on: Reception
Well good morning everyone!
Lets make learning fun. I don't want to add too much each day as I feel it can be overwhelming as I too have two children at home myself.
Short daily activities:
Go noodle
Number work
Phonics
Reading
Play - crafting
Today we are going to set up our class, get a register written and a timetable table set up all done by your children.
A routine is best for the children so they know what is happening each day.
We will have a theme of the week a book and activities will be based around this.
Don't feel you have to stick all all the ideas I provide.
Pintrest is a great source of free crafting and other activities which will complement the theme.
This weeks book is Aaarghhh Spider by Lydia Monks. Themes of tolerance and misunderstanding.
Later in the week looking at spider facts.
Did you know spiders have up to 8 eyes?
If children are involved in their own learning you will have a better chance of them engaging in all the activities through 'PLAY'.
- Make a class - Get the teddies, robots, transformers ect to become part of your class. Make a register (writing)
- Set up the days of the week, date and weather type on cards. (Drawing and writing)
- Dinners make a dinner list with two choices each day and count how many of each. (number-counting)
- Make a time table.
- Register- Go noodle-maths-phonics-outdoor-reading- construction-craft-lunch-end of day- (Maths)
We are now set up have this as a daily routine. They can be the teacher.
Literacy
Introduce the book. Have you got any pets? Is there a part you would like to have? What are reasons for not having the pets they really need. What do you think would happen if you were to ask for a spider for a pet? Would their family like it? What sort of things do people say about spiders? Write list spiders are………….(Keep List). Read the book Aaaarrhh Spider! Encourage children to join in the repeated pattern. Also the unexpected twist at the end. What did the children think about the story? What they like did not like or think about the story? Scribe some ideas. |

Maths
I have set up counting in 10's lesson.
We have been looking at number to 100's and looking for patterns. All 20's start with a 2. All 30's start with a 3.
Look at second digit. That lets us how many ones in that number. Show children a number and see if the can find it on the 100 square? 1-50 at first.
Find two number 23-37 and count from one number to another. The count backwards for a challenge. Crossing from 29-30 4-50 can be tricky.
Phonics
There are Read Write Phonics - videos are available for the next two weeks on their utube or face book channel.
Set 1 Speed Sounds at 9.30 am and again at 12.30 pm
One rule each day is to write a sentence and read it out everyday.
The red Get Writing RWI books can help with this.
Hold a sentence means the children have to remember it. NOT COPY IT.
If you do one ditty a day there is enough for two weeks.

Jack and the Beanstalk

13th March 2020
What en exciting day we have had! In art, we used our fingers to paint a beanstalk. For National Science week, we did three experiments. We made a rainbow with the Skittles on a white plate and added a little bit of water. We observed what happened. The Skittles colour came out of the sweet and moved into the middle of the plate. The colours got darker and darker.
We also made a cup out of an apple. First we put some water in then blew down the straw, there were a few bubbles. Next we put in some orange juice and blew down the straw again. This time there were more bubbles. Lastly, we put in milk and when we blew down the straw, there were so many bubbles they overflowed.
We then posed for a photograph to make it look like we were climbing up the beanstalk. We added cotton wool to make the clouds. Also we used cellophane, tissue paper and card to make a beanstalk with a castle at the top on the cutting and sticking table.
Have a lovely weekend!

As it's Science week we made buns to watch how the mixtures changes in the oven.
We then had a bun each.
We are still working on number bonds to 10 and finding different objects to work with. These are 10 frames.
We then wrote the number sentences.
With Mr Walshaw today the children created Jack and the beanstalk pictures.
