Reading

 

Last week we finally started "Read Write Inc" but this week we will continue with the same book as last week. The children will bring the book home to practice on Wednesday and it should be returned the following Monday (with the other 2 "Oxford Reading Tree" books) Some children might be rereading a book they read at the end of reception class to regain their confidence.

Maths

This week we will be working on measuring the length of objects (using non-standard units, such as blocks, not measuring in cm yet)

Try either of these 2 comparing games or try measuring small objects in the house using paper clips or blocks. the games are fairly easy but all the other games I can find involve measuring with a ruler which we will do later in the year.

We will also work on positional vocabulary - above, below, next to, in front, behind, between etc.

This is a very short positional language game,  Or this pirate game or move the apple game,

Some child might want to try this game but there is a more reading and language involved .



Topic

In topic we will continue to work on the 5 senses.

Try singing these songs at home.  Another song.




Last week in computing we worked on mouse control, which some children find hard on a laptop as they are used to using a tablet. Try these at home.  Learning to drag and drop lessons 1-12.  Later in the year we will play some other games on this site.
