Year 1 Home learning for Friday 24th April
| Subject focus | What we need to learn: | How we might learn it: | |
| English | Reading | Apply phonic knowledge and skills as the route to decode words | Share a book together, any book. Look through it together and talk about what is happening in each picture. Then go to the start and get our child to read it. If they have chosen a book that is a little too tricky, give them a target word to look out for or make them sound out words that can be sounded out. |
| Writing | Using –ing, -ed, -er and –est where no change is needed in the spelling of root words |
On post its (or post it sized pieces of paper) write the words: bright, cold, heat, bump, help, mix, see, go Blu Tac these around the house or garden. Then write the suffixes: est, er, ed, ing Give your child a suffix card, get them to find the word that suffix will go on the end of and still make sense. brightest, coldest, heater, bumper, helped, mixed, seeing, going. Some of the words work with more that one suffix – discuss that with your child. |
|
| Maths | Represent and use number bonds and related subtraction facts within 20 |
Discuss with your child the pairs of numbers that make 10 or 20 (number bonds) e.g. 1+9, 2+8, 3+7, 4+6, 5+5, 6+4, 7+3, 8+2, 9+1 Give your child the number cards 1-9, make a pile of something in front of your child. e.g. 6 lego pieces. Your child should then put the number card that will make the number bond to 10. e.g. 4. If your child finds number bonds to 10 easy then move on to number bonds to 20. 1+19, 2+18, 3+17, etc. |
|
| Other: | Design purposeful, functional, appealing products for themselves and other users based on design criteria. |
Show your child these products made from toilet roll. Get them to choose the one they would like to make, encourage them to consider what resources they have at home e.g don’t choose to make a black ninja if you have no black paint. Help your child to collect the resources they will need. Get them to tell you which one they want to make and how they might do it. Remind them that there is no right or wrong way to do, it is about giving it their best go! Then let them create a toilet roll master piece! |

Remember to email your child’s class teacher to let them know how you’ve got on. We’d love to see examples of what you’ve been up to.
