Year 1 – Monday’s Home Learning

Year 1 Home learning for Monday 18th May

Subject focus What we need to learn: How we might learn it:
English  Reading Discuss word meanings, linking new meanings to those already known.

Read the story ‘Tremendous Tractors’ (either below or on this Youtube link). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xSl5akMuWLU

If you are reading this with an adult discuss any words you don’t know the meaning of. Think about when we RAG rate words at school (RED: I don’t know what it means. ORANGE: I’ve heard it but not sure what it means. GREEN: I know what it means.)

If you are working on your own, write a list of the words you aren’t sure of. You might make a table…

You can then discuss the words you have written with an adult or older sibling later on.

Writing Can I spell words using my phonic knowledge?

Can you think of lots of different types of transport? How many can you think of? Do they have wheels or wings? Do they travel on the road, rail, water or air?

Write a list or a mind map of all the types of transport that you can think of.

When you write the words, really try to sound them out and use your phonic sounds to help you spell them correctly. E.g. c-ar , b-oa-t.

Maths Solve one-step problems that involve addition using concrete objects and pictorial representations.

Write out the numbers 1-10 on cut up pieces of paper, or print out and cut up the vehicle cards at the end of this document (showing the number of wheels).  Place the cards face down on the table.  Pick up two cards and write a number sentence to show the total.  Repeat with a different combination of cards.  You may want to attempt a longer number sentence by turning over 3 or 4 cards depending on your child’s ability.  Remember to count on from the biggest number.

KEEP HOLD OF THE CARDS FOR TOMORROW!

Watch the following video on Youtube to see how cars have changed over the years. Talk about the differences you see. Which cars do you think are best and why? Why do you think cars have changed over the years? Do you think they are good changes?

See the attached sheet with some prompt questions and images to aid your discussions. 

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.
