Tuesday's maths

Date: 28th Apr 2020 @ 1:21pm

Hello,

Today's maths challenge is going to be based on doubling. We are all really good at singing the doubling song to help us remember out doubling facts. It seems such a long time since we last sung the song together so have a go at singing it to your adults. If you would like to sing more doubling songs then follow the links and have a go at learning something new.

Tuesday Sentence of the day and phonics

Date: 28th Apr 2020 @ 10:03am

Good Morning! It was great to see you all up and busy doing your home learning yesterday, we had so many emails and pictures to reply to which really made us smile! Well done!

Sentence of the day

Here are the answers from yesterday’s sentence of the day. Lots of you spotted the mistakes so well done. Here are my corrections as well as some of yours that you have sent in.

Courteous's sentence of the day! Well done Courteous!

For today’s sentence I’m going to write some instructions. But are the time connectives in the right order? Time connectives tell us which order to do things in. They are really important in instructions because they help us do them in the right order. Put on your detective hat, what have I done wrong?

Phonics

Lets have a quick read practice of those tricky words from yesterday. Look at the video and turn the sound off! Can you read the tricky words? Give yourself a point for every word you read correctly? How many points did you get? Can you beat your score?

Here is Friday’s sentence of the day. I quite enjoyed improving this sentence with my purple pen.

Here are some examples of children who improved their sentences too…

Today you are going to be a detective, get out your magnifying glass and put on your detective hat. You are going to go on a capital letter and full stop hunt! Where does it need capital letters and full stops? Are there any capital letters and full stops in the wrong places?

Send your new answers to the email at the bottom so that we can post them on the blog tomorrow!

Phonics

Today’s phonics is all about those tricky words again.  In your home learning packs you have all of the tricky words that you need to have a practice. Practice reading them, writing them and playing games with them.

There are lots of tricky words games on https://new.phonicsplay.co.uk/resources/phase/2/tricky-word-trucks like the tricky words trucks game.

If you don’t fancy going on your tablet or computer today why not try and make a game of tricky word hopscotch. Play with your family, who can cross the words out the quickest?

Hope you have a lovely day. Don’t forget to send your learning into us – y1homelearning@ravensbury.manchester.sch.uk

Friday sentence of the day and phonics

Date: 24th Apr 2020 @ 9:29am

Can you believe it’s already Friday? This week has flown by and we have loved getting back onto the blogs and seeing all of your amazing home learning! Check back on the blog later and we will have our very own Year 1 celebration of all the fantastic things you have been doing at home!

Sentence of the day

Here are some pictures of children who managed to find the nouns in yesterday’s sentence. Well done! Here is a picture of the sentence with all of the nouns underlined. Remember a noun is a person, a place or an object.

Today’s sentence is going to have a little bit of everything we have done this week. I want you to find ways that you can make my sentence better. It might be missing capital letters, it might need some question marks. Maybe you could add some adjectives in before the nouns to make it more interesting.

Phonics

I loved seeing your phonics activities from yesterday. Watch the tricky word video again to check if you can remember them today …

Today’s phonics focuses on the oo sound family.

In your home learning packs you have some games and activities which all focus on the oo sound family. There are also lots of games on https://new.phonicsplay.co.uk/  (your username and password is in the home learning pack) Use these activities as a start point and then I have a challenge for you.

I want you to design and make your own game. The game must be all about those oo sounds. You could have a snakes and ladders game with different oo words on the different squares. Maybe you want to write down as many words with the different oo sounds in them and play a game of snap or pairs. You could even play oo sound bingo!

I can’t wait to see the games that you have made! Just remember they must have the oo sounds in them!

Good Luck and don’t forget to send pictures of you playing your games to y1homelearning@ravensbury.manchester.sch.uk

Wellbeing challenge number 9

Date: 23rd Apr 2020 @ 11:07am

Hi everyone,

I hope everyone is finding ways to enjoy this amazing weather, I don't think we've ever had such a nice April before!

So today's wellbeing challenge is another way to make the most of the weather and get out in your gardens and do some gardening!

Here are some nice ideas for things to do that you don't really need many resources for: https://www.gardenersworld.com/how-to/grow-plants/10-gardening-projects-for-kids/ 

I bet you'll already have a lot of the things in your house or garden or you could collect some of them like twigs etc while out on a walk (make sure you wash your hands after if you do that!)  My favourite is the fairy garden.

Alternatively you could plant some seeds from something that you've just eatedn such as tomato seeds.

If you don't have a garden then why not design and draw your own garden (or fairy garden!) instead? You could maybe try and re-create it when you're older and have your own garden!

I have a balcony rather than a garden and had never done any gardening until a few weeks ago but below are a couple of pictures of the things I've planted! I'm watering them every day and the sun is making most of them grow nice and tall.

Have fun and remember to let us know what you've done!

Mrs Glover

Thursday Sentence of the day and phonics

Date: 23rd Apr 2020 @ 10:01am

Good Morning! We hope you are all well and staying safe, we've had lots of emails and pictures sent to us with all your home learning. It's put a big smile on my face this morning to see you all so busy and doing your home learning. Keep sending us pictures of you doing your activities! 

Sentence of the day

Well done to all of those children who improved yesterdays sentence. It would be lovely for you to send some pictures so that we can share them on this blog.

This is my new and improved sentence

For todays sentence of the day you are going to become detectives! I want you to find all of the nouns in the sentence.

A noun is a person, place or thing. Look at the poster below to help you to remember.

Can you read the sentence and underline all of the nouns.

Phonics

Today our phonics is focussing on those tricky words. In your home learning packs you have flashcards with the tricky words on as well as some worksheets. Use these today to help you with your challenges.

Watch the video below so that you can remember the phase 5 tricky words. If these are a little hard and you think you might need more practice at phase 3 or 4 that’s ok, just type phase ¾ tricky words into youtube J

Our new topic this term is all about plants and how things grow. This week we have challenged you to create art work using things you find in your garden. Can you use these things to write out the tricky words?

Heres an example of some words I have made in my garden

Hope you have a lovely day. Don’t forget to send us pictures of you doing your learning to y1homelearning@ravensbury.manchester.sch.uk. If you have any questions please email us and we’ll get back to you J
