Year R – Thursday’s Home Learning

Year R Home learning for Thursday 30th April

Subject focus What we need to learn: How we might learn it:
Literacy Children answer ‘how’ and ‘why’ questions about their experiences and in response to stories or events.

Owl Babies

Visit the school website ( https://langstoneinfants.co.uk/story-videos/ ) and listen to Mrs Bartlett reading the story Owl Babies. How to do the baby owls feel in the story?  Why do you think they felt that way? Can your child think of a time they have been worried about something. How did it all turn out in the end?

Offline Alternative: Read a story of your choice that you have at home. Talk about how any characters might be feeling in the story and why they might feel that way. Ask your child if they have ever felt that way?

Maths Children explore 2D shapes and use mathematical language to describe them.                            

Ask your child to make an alien shape picture. Ask them to name the shapes they have used  and talk about the properties

E.g. How many corners/sides does your shape have?

Can they say whether it is straight, flat, curved or round.

Other: Physical development Children show good control and co-ordination in large and small movements. 

Choose one of Andy’s wild workouts to do. https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episodes/p06tmmvz/andys-wild-workouts

Offline Alternative: 

Can your child make up their own workout?

E.g 10 star jumps, 5 hops, 5 turns

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.
