If you have chance, and the weather is settled, why not go for a nature walk. What can you hear, see, smell and touch? Can you collect some things to use in artwork or other activities.

Have a lovely day, enjoyment is the key thing – if it gets fraught take a break and come back to it another time. Be kind to yourselves.

Panda Class Home Learning Monday 18th January

Hi Pandas,

here is the work for Monday’s learning.

Joe Wicks or MOVE PE – both available Live on YouTube

Cosmic Kids Yoga, on YouTube

Phonics – Ruth Miskin Live lessons on YouTube – Working at your pace on each sound in Sets 1 – 3.

Reading – Oxford Owl e-books. https://home.oxfordowl.co.uk/reading/free-ebooks/

Also, check out this virtual library, a new resource for children.

https://library.thenational.academy/

Year 1 Maths – This week we are consolidating what we know about Addition & Subtraction. The link is to a variety of questions designed to assess if the children have remembered the strategies needed to answer questions covered in recent learning.

Chat through each problem with your child; asking what they need to do. Answers could be given verbally or jotted down in their work books. I suggest doing half the questions on Monday and the other half on Tuesday. There will be a similar set of questions for Wednesday and Thursday in Wednesday’s post.

Year 1 – Spring Add & Sub 20 PDF

Reception Maths – Using manipulatives (small items) to ‘count on’ when adding.

https://classroom.thenational.academy/lessons/using-manipulatives-to-count-on-when-adding-60vpat?activity=video&step=1

Number-Formation-Tracing-Strips-0-10 Use these sheets to trace over the numbers so that your child knows how to write each of the numbers, forming them correctly.

English – Year 1

The Magic Paintbrush Diary entry/Recount.

Task – Create a Recount Map from the Magic Paintbrush story.

Plus Spellings within the video.

https://classroom.thenational.academy/lessons/to-listen-to-a-recount-cnjpcc

English – Reception

Watch the Magic Paintbrush Same lesson for Year 1 Skip to the story – do as much or as little as you feel appropriate of the other activities within the video – it’s the story that I want them to enjoy. Then, using the cards in the link below, can your child order the story in to the correct sequence?

The Magic Paintbrush Story Sequencing Cards

letter-formation-alphabet-handwriting-sheet-lowercase This link is for practising letter formation. Start with the red dot and follow the arrows – correct letter formation is really important.

Art – All Pandas

This week we are looking at collage and how to create them. There are some amazing examples on the Tate link. This website is great for a general explore!

Have a great day.

Panda Class Home Learning Friday 15th January

Friday 15^th January 2021

What a busy week! It’s been filled with positive Panda moments and lots of amazing work as a result. Thank you for all of your hard work and effort – it can’t be easy juggling all of life’s commitments and home schooling.

I will send a link (on Class Dojo) to a PowerPoint which is a celebration of the wonderful work Pandas have produced over the last week. I’ve really enjoyed seeing what you’ve been doing. You should all feel very proud!

I would like to have today as a chance to catch up on the tasks you haven’t managed to fit into the week so far. There might be a couple of pieces of work you need to go back to; or something you wanted to spend longer doing, or just have a rest!

I hope you can make it to our Panda Class Zoom session at 2pm Friday 15^th. (Again, I will send the meeting ID on Class Dojo) If children have anything they would like to show or share then they can have a go. Initially I expect they will be a bit ‘star struck’ when they see their friends, so we will have to see how it goes.

If you are up to date and would like more work – I have added a few suggestions:

Ruth Miskin Phonics – Friday’s live lessons.

Joe Wicks and our own Mr Wright, ‘TWWG Move’ offer on-line PE sessions via YouTube.

Cosmic Kids Yoga

Reading (100s of free e-books via Oxford Owl link)

Board games

Singing and dancing

Role Play – can you act out the story of Lost and Found?

https://www.tate.org.uk/kids Tate Modern for children is a wonderful resource full of amazing creative opportunities. I was on the site for ages exploring all of the different areas. I would definitely recommend it!

Here is a link to a lovely story called ‘While we can’t hug’.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tarq5nkkGlk

I hope you all have a restful and enjoyable weekend.

Best wishes
