Year R – Wednesday’s Home Learning

Year R Home learning for Wednesday 1st April

Subject focus What we need to learn: How we might learn it:
Literacy – reading They read some common irregular words. They demonstrate understanding when talking with others about what they have read.

Write high frequency words on pieces of paper and hide them around the room. e.g the, to, be, she

Ask your child to find certain words. Can you find …… ‘be’?

Encourage your child to say or write that word in a sentence. e.g I want to be a doctor when I grow up.

Maths Children count reliably with numbers from one to 20. Using quantities and objects, they add two single-digit numbers and count on to find the answer.

Focus: Adding

Using bowls of objects can your child add two groups of objects together (up to a total of 20)  to find the total. Can they count all the objects to find the total? Can they ‘count on’ from the biggest number group to find the total? Remind your child to move the objects when counting to ensure they count accurately.

Other: Creative Children will safely use and explore a variety of materials, tools and techniques, experimenting with colour, design, texture, form and function.

Draw or make a bug hotel. A bug hotel is a habitat for bugs. You can choose to make it from whatever you wish e.g toilet roll tubes, lego, sticks and leaves.

Talk about what would make a good bug habitat. Talk about why your child has used certain materials.

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.
