Year R – Tuesday’s Home Learning

Year R Home learning for Tuesday 21st April

Subject focus What we need to learn: How we might learn it:
Literacy They use phonic knowledge to decode regular words and read them aloud accurately.

Phonics word and object matching game

Similar to yesterday using objects like those listed below:

Phase 2: pan, pot, cup, mug, pen, bag, tap, mat, top, can

Phase 3: chair, box, book, light, soap, butter, rubber, 

Phase 4:  spoon, fork, plug, hairbrush, trainer, toaster, screen

Ask your child to hunt around the house for an object.  Encourage them to sound out the word and write a label for the object. Repeat for other objects. 

Note: If they choose other objects not on the list and sound them out phonetically that is fine e.g they might choose to label a teddy and might spell it ‘teddee’ or sofa  ‘soafer’ this is fine as we are trying to encourage the children to be more independent with their writing and use the sounds we have taught them.

Maths Children count reliably with numbers from one to 20, place them in order and say which number is one more or one less than a given number.

Using the numbers 1 to 20. Go on a number hunt around the house looking for groups of objects to match each number.

E.g. 

1 – bath

2 – shoes

3 – spoons etc

20 – pieces of lego.

Children could draw the objects to go with each number.

Challenge: can your child check the number by counting in 2’s or 5’s?

Other:  Children answer ‘how’ and ‘’why’ questions in response to stories.

Watch the story Aliens love Underpants by Claire Freedman available at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HWbSrmuyptw

Talk about the story and what your child thinks about Space and Aliens.

What is an alien?

What do you think you would see in space?

If you could go to space, how would you travel in space?

Why do you think the Aliens like underpants?

 

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.
