Year 1 Home learning for Thursday 14th May
| Subject focus | What we need to learn: | How we might learn it: | |
| English | Reading | Participate in discussion about what is read to them, taking turns and listening to what others say | Ask our grown up to read to you – this can be anything! Fiction or nonfiction, a book, magazine, article or even a set of instructions. After listening to it, talk about what was read. Do you have any questions about what was read to you? Did you like/dislike it? Can you explain why? |
| Writing | Understand which letters belong to which handwriting ‘families’. |
Today’s family is the ‘Zigzag Monster Family’.You will need a piece of paper (lined will be best). Down the side of your page write the letters v, w, x, z. Remember how we form our letters – see the Zigzag Monster poster below to help remind you. Next to each letter you have written write a word that starts with that letter. Remembering to form your letters carefully, join your letters (when it is sensible to do so) and to read what you’ve written to check it says what you wanted it to. e.g. v – vegetable (Zigzag monster letters are often the ones we don’t join). ext: Can you put your word into a sentence? e.g. I love vegetables. Remember this about handwriting – make it as neat as possible and take your time! |

| Maths | Identify and represent numbers using objects and pictorial representations including the number line, and use the language of: equal to, more than, less than (fewer), most, least |
Play the game Pairs using a mixture of number cards and dienes cards(tens and units pictures) (Please see the bottom of this document for some resources). Mix all the number cards up in one pile and all the dienes cards in another pile and place them face down – pick one number card and one dienes card and see if they match. E.g. 12 and I.. If they match then keep them and if they don’t then return them and try again. Keep playing until you have matched all the number cards with the dienes cards. Once you have finished, can you talk about the different numbers using the language equal to, more than, less than (fewer), most, least E.g. 12 is less than 23 Extension activity – can you make your own number and dienes cards? You choose a number and write it down and then draw the matching dienes picture next to it? E.g. 23 II… |
