If your child is self isolating this week, here is their work for the week ahead….
Maths - This week we will continue with our work on the Part Part Whole model - a diagram to help the children see how a number(the whole) can be broken up into two separate groups (the parts). The work this week also introduces the addition sign in a way that shows the children that addition can be done in any order. If you could make a part part whole diagram at home to support the children’s learning, tat would be great. Just drawn on a piece of paper and buttons will do as counters, or pieces of pasta! The videos will support eh children’s learning.
Follow this link to take you to some videos that will help the children with their Maths work this week.

For English, I have added an online unit based on listening to a story and writing about it - I have added this site because it has videos of the story and clear instructions as to what to do. Thought it would be straightforward for you all. Please follow the link below and then click on the MONEYS AND HATS: PROBLEMS box - this will take you to a ten lesson plan - this will see you through two weeks of home learning. Enjoy!!

Please take a look at Education City - password in the front of the children’s reading records and I ensure that your child ha work that they can access on this site.

There are two phonic games - I will add some more activities to the children’s accounts then they have a few other things to keep them going! Look in the Homework section.
Also, use homework page on class blog for Phase 3 phonics, handwriting and Oxford Owl site. http://www.ourladyassumption-sch.co.uk/yr1-homework
Phonics Focus for this week - ‘oi’ as in spoil the boy and ‘ear’ hear with your ear. BBC Bitesize is super for Phonics support and KS1 activities in general. https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/levels/z3g4d2p
Please DO NOT bring in the children’s work to school - but do post pictures into the PORTFOLIO section of Class Dojo.
Try to do three hours of school work - 30 minutes of Phonics and Reading, 45 minutes of English and handwriting practice, 45 minutes of Maths including Mental Maths (we are working on doubling and halving within 10, adding one more or one less to a number under 30 in class) and an hour of Topic based work in the afternoon. Just try your best - that is all I ask - I know it is very hard when you are working at home too.
Monday - RE we are looking at remembering and all the important people that we remember at this time of year. Today we started by watching Fr Jim’s Mass and colouring some poppies for our display.
Tuesday - we are continuing in the afternoon with our Science topic all about Animals - today we will work in partners to group our photos according to their group, ie fish, insects. Science Activity If you can print of the photos great, if not then have a go at drawing some yourself under the headings! Powerpoint
Wednesday - We will be starting our Uner The Sea topic this half term which is a Geography focus on the countries that make up the UK and the seas that surround our coast line. We will start today by examining our atlas and locating England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland - we will also look at the capital cities of each country. Activity PowerPoint - UK
Thursday - we will be starting our sewing topic! We will start with using binka and large needles. If you have the chance to have a go at sewing at home I would love to see the results! We will be suing a simple running stitch.
Friday - remember we finish at 1.15pm!
Many thanks
Mrs Hollinghurst
