Good morning!

 

It’s Monday again already. I hope you all enjoyed the long weekend and managed to celebrate VE Day in style. I know I did!

 

Did you see our preview pictures on Twitter yesterday? We have a little surprise for you...

Please start this morning by clicking on this link to enjoy a little video that the staff at Lostock have put together for you. Don't forget to sing along! 

 

 Lostock Gralam C of E - When I Grow Up

 

Once again, I have attached a new timetable for you to follow this week with new tasks and projects to complete – remember this is only a suggested timetable and activities are always optional! Just do what you can, when you can. Please continue to aim for one activity out of each box below each day. This may not happen every day and that is absolutely fine! Your child's mental health is much more important than a home learning task.

A little bit of maths

  • White Rose online lesson
  • BBC Bitesize lesson
  • Oak National Academy lesson
  • Mental Arithmetic fluency grid (If you have any left)
  • Counting games

A little bit of writing

  • Child initiated writing
  • Writing sheet from the pack (If you have any left)
  • BBC Bitesize lesson
  • Oak National Academy

Remember to use a capital letter, finger spaces, full stop and the conjunction ‘and’. As long as you remember our Year One Non-Negotiables, I don’t mind what you write.

A little bit of reading

  • RWI Online lesson
  • Oxford Owl online reading and audio books (colour banded)
  • Phonics Play
  • Read a library book or a book from home
  • Reading comprehension – See attachment

A little bit of topic work

  • Daily job set by Miss Gillam on our weekly task list/timetable
  • Oak National Academy
  • BBC Bitesize

 

Today, I would like you to keep working through your maths packs or complete the following lesson online: https://www.thenational.academy/year-1/maths/to-compare-numbers-within-100-on-a-number-line-year-1-wk4-1

You will be comparing numbers to 100 using a number line to help you. Remember, sometimes it is easier to have one in front of you. Do you still have the number line we gave you in your pack? 

 

I have also attached some lovely ‘Walking Maths’ ideas.

 

On the Oak Academy website, today’s writing lesson is based on ‘The Tiger who came to Tea’.  Please follow the link to listen to the story and answer questions about what has been read to you.

 Have you been enjoying our Geography lessons? Here is a link to the Oak Academy Foundation lesson for the day. In this lesson you will be finding out about South America. https://www.thenational.academy/year-1/foundation/what-is-south-america-like-year-1-wk4-1

 

Alternatively, if you fancy something a little bit different, why not have a look at today’s History lesson on the BBC Bitesize website. In this session, you will find out about King Henry VIII. https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/articles/zhhsf4j

 

Please please remember to keep up with your daily Read Write Inc lesson and challenge yourself to read a book every day this week. This can be either a paper book or an online story on the Oxford Owl website.

A message from Mrs Powell

Flowers

Have you planted your sunflower seed? All flowers are different and amazing, so, too, people are all different, but all wonderfully made. Just as flowers can brighten our day when we see them, so, too, each of us can brighten other people’s days by our care and our attitudes. We thank you, God, for the beauty of flowers. Giving flowers shows that we care. Flowers can brighten our day and fill our hearts with gladness. Please help us to be like flowers to other people, Brightening their day and bringing joy to those around us. Amen. Why don’t you give flower-pressing a go!
