Year 1 – Thursday’s Home Learning

Read and Roll Game:

Today we are focusing on the ‘er’ phoneme.  Play the read and roll game with a grown up (er =phase 3 and ir = phase 5). Roll the dice and read the word.  If you read it correctly, cover the word with a counter or object.  The one with the most words covered wins.

Words containing each 40+ phonemes already taught

Using a capital letter for names of people, places, the days of the week, and the personal pronoun ‘I’

Can you remember the names of the five oceans that you found out about yesterday? Use your phonics knowledge to try to write all five names down in a list. Remember, as they are names they need to have a capital letter.

Extension: can you write an interesting fact about each ocean in a sentence?

Recap the months of the year song… https://youtu.be/VECiSMV4GX4 

Remember to KEEP SAFE on the internet. 

Have the months of the year on separate pieces of paper (you can use the template below if needed). Place one month in “This month” and insert the correct months into the “Last month” and “Next month” boxes. Repeat with alternative “This month” choices.

Creative

Think about everything that you have learnt about the ocean and try to represent an element of this in a creative way.

You could create: boats/ships, waves, sea creatures etc.

Think about how you could do this, you could: draw, paint, make a model, sculpt, masks, collage, sing and dance or bake.

We would like you to be creative and have fun!
