Week Beginning: Monday 20th April



Year 1 & Year 2 Home Learning - Week Beginning 1-6-2020The activities and links to resources for this week can be found in the table below. Each week, literacy (Read Write Inc), and numeracy activities will be set as a ‘DAILY MUST’. We have named these activities a ‘Daily Must’ as they are vitally important to ensure that your child’s academic skills do not significantly decline during these uncertain times (these activities will be mostly revision of topics already covered). As well as the ‘Daily Must’ activities, this week we are also setting activities related to your child’s personal and social development (a project about themselves), and their creativity through art. . Activities can be recorded online using ‘Hwb - Just2easy - Jit’ or on paper. Any activities recorded on paper or completed practically can be shared with class teachers in photo form, either as a Dojo message or a photo uploaded to Hwb using ‘My Files’ within ‘Just2easy’. Two Dojo points will be awarded to pupils for every task completed and viewed by their class teacher.‘DAILY MUST’ Literacy: Read Write IncActivities: Speed Sounds and Green Words Daily practise of the sounds at speed and reading the ‘Green’ words using ‘Special Friends - Fred Talk - Read the Word’ strategy.

Children are taught to use standard units of time to read hours and minutes on an analogue clock and when they are confident in doing this, they are then taught how to calculate simply everyday durations. For this week, I would be grateful if you could revise the times that have been taught so far in school. You can either use an analogue clock which you have at home (however, it must have 5 minute intervals labelled with all numbers 1 –12 and two hands which differ in length), or use the online teaching clock below: with your child the relationship between seconds, minutes and hours. They will need to know that there are 60 seconds in a minute and 60 minutes in an hour. They will need to recognise the hour hand (the shorter hand), and the minute hand (the longer hand) and know that each of the numbers on the clock represents a multiple of 5 minutes, so the number 1 = 5 minutes past, 2 = 10 minutes, 3 = 15 minutes and so on (encourage them to use the 2x table to help them). Progression of teaching your child to tell the time:First, ask your child to make an o’clock time. Repeat with different o’clock times.Next, ask your child to make a half-past time (to demonstrate this I always fold a circle in half and show that the half way line is where the 6 is on a clock). Repeat with different half-past times.After that, ask your child to make a quarter-past time (to demonstrate this I further fold the circle into quarters and show that the first quarter line in a clockwise direction is where the 3 is on a clock). Repeat with different quarter-past times.Finally, ask your child to make a quarter-to time (to demonstrate this, show that the quarter line is also where the 9 is on a clock). Repeat with different quarter-to times. Children always find ‘quarter-to’ more difficult than the others, so don’t worry if this is the case, just keep on practising! If your child is already confident making all four of the times above you can practise making the times - 5 past/10 past/20 past/25 past.Online Time Activities:Watch the videos below before completing the quiz. What score did you get? you have access to a printer you can print this out to help your child: You can also find lots of Telling the Time games here:(2 dojos for each game you complete – photo evidence)Main Activity 2 – Reasoning using Addition and Subtraction Facts:(2 Dojos will be awarded for each page completed and evidenced)Use your knowledge of the 8 number sentences for fact families to solve the problems below:Explain and correct the mistakes that have been made:5 + 2 = 7 7 = 5 + 22 + 5 = 7 7 = 2 + 57 – 2 = 5 7 = 5 - 27 – 5 = 2 7 = 2 – 5I have 9 apples in total. I have a basket and a bag to put them in. How many different ways can they be split between the bag and the basket?Write the 8 number sentences to go with each way. Are any of the sets of number sentences the same?

The more ticks you get the closer you will become to earning a cup. ‘DAILY MUST’Numeracy:Mrs Pugsley’s Maths Set onlyDaily Warm Up (2 Dojos will be awarded for evidence of each of the warm up activities below)*Daily practice counting forwards to 20 and backwards from 10.Counting on your fingers – waking them up when counting forwards and sleeping (putting them down) when counting backwards.Choose, sing and act out a number song of their choice e.g. 5 little speckled frogs, 5 little ducks, 10 green bottles, 5 little monkeys jumping on the bed, 5 current buns in a bakers shop (see useful resources)Activity 1 - Dot PlatesProvide children with dot plates or separate pieces of paper with the 0-5 dots on them as below.Recap - Shuffle the plates up ask the children to tell you how many dots are on each plate – do this speedily (we want children to recognise the amount without counting the dots) Ask your child to put the plates in order from the fewest amount to the biggest (as above). Does this plate have more or less dots than this one? Show them a part whole model: You can print these out (see resources) or draw them - start with 4. Ask your child to find a pair of the dotty plates that would make the amount of 4. e.g. 3 and 1 How many dots are there on these two plates together? Can you find plates which have (4,5,6) dots? Is there more than another way of making 4 dots? E.g. 4 and 0 Can you find more than one way to arrange your 6 plates on the part whole model? Repeat with part whole model 5 and 6. Activity 2 - Snakes and LaddersPlay snakes and ladders. If you do not have this game – you can print one (see resources) The aim of the game is for your child to add two amounts together. So, if you have a board game that involves rolling a dice this will also do. Roll two dice or if you only have 1 dice each person rolls one dice twice. You can also make a dice – see resourcesKey questions: How many dots can you see? How many dots are there altogether? How many spaces can you move altogether? Activity 3 - Watch the number story – Quack and count by Keith Baker questions: How many ducklings are there? How do you make 7?Ask your child to - Draw two ponds and draw 7 ducklings altogether. (Or use plastic ducks and two bowls or cut out pictures of ducks and two pieces of blue paper - see resources)How many ducklings are in the first pond? How many ducklings are in the second pond? How many ducklings altogether? Can you draw another way of making 7? Activity 4 – Combing two groups Show your child the following picture: (see resources)Key questions: What can you see in the picture? How many big fish can you see? How many small fish? How many fish altogether? How many yellow shells? How many pink shells? How many shells altogether? I spy a group of 3 and a group of 2 what am I looking at? I spy a group of 2 and a group of 5 what am I looking at? I spy a group of 4 and a group of 3 what am I looking at? What is the same? What is different? Which group has the most? Which group has the fewest? Which group has the same amount?

Then evaluate your own work – Two things that you like about it and one thing you would change. Instead of writing your evaluation - why not record your two stars and a wish using a phone or I-pad and send the video to your teacher. Personal and Social DevelopmentAll About Me Project(Dojo points will be allocated by your teacher depending individual efforts)Over the next three weeks, your challenge is to produce a project based on yourself. Your project will be shared with your teacher and other children when you return to school.It is totally up to you how you create and present your project whether it be written on paper, presented within a scrapbook or created in digital form (you could use Hwb – ‘Jit - Mix’ or a Word Document/PowerPoint on ‘Office 365’ to present your work digitally, uploading pictures and/or adding sound if you wish).Below you will find a list of possible ideas to use, however, you can be as imaginative and creative as you want.Possible pages you could include:Your name, age and date of birthA timeline including dates and photographs of different important times in your lifeYour appearanceWhere you live - your address and who you live with (you could use Google Maps to find your house)Any pets you may haveDetails of your home, e.g. semi-detached house with six rooms and a garden (possibly describe your bedroom)You family and friends - you could draw portraits/make a collage of people who are special to youWhat hobbies/interests you have - sports/creative etcYour favourite things, e.g. colour, food, animal, place etc.You could add some Welsh details to your project using the patterns below that you are familiar with:Pwy wyt ti? … dw i.
