Hi Pandas,
I was pleased to see the Phonics was back online this morning; they are continuing with Home Learning lessons, so that’s great. Keep at it, they are such a wonderful resource to be able to access.
Maths
Year 1. Continue with measuring with work sheet number 2 ‘Measuring Length 2’. Yesterday’s work raised some interesting questions about non-standard units of measurement, and how, if the method of measuring is different, then even though two items may measure 4 units long – if the measurement method changes then they may not be the same length. See questions 2 and 3 from Monday’s work to check. It raised a lot of discussion in school – even with 2 children!

Find the list of emotions from yesterday’s work – Can you find new words that mean the same as the ones you chose yesterday? For example, here in class, we said that at the beginning Vishti was/looked angry – another word for angry is cross.
Angry – Cross, and so on…
Then can you think of a colour that matches that emotion? I think we may choose red for the start where she seems angry. You could colour over the words in colours of your choice, to match the emotions.
Have a go at this feelings worksheet.

Continue with your spellings. See yesterday’s spelling booklet.
Here is a link to having opportunities to practice your handwriting.
History – All Pandas
We are looking at the life of Neil Armstrong, this half term. Key question:: Was Neil Armstrong an explorer, like Christopher Columbus? Discuss what you think.
Watch the PowerPoint and then complete the time line. There are a few time line formats to choose from, use the one that suits your child. Reception, you may want to use the pictures, to order the events of his life. Year 1 you may want to choose to do some writing – aim high! Would you like to be an astronaut?

How are you getting on with reading? There are lots of books available online and I can put new books in the reception area for those of you who pass by school. Just let me know, and I can sort some out.
Enjoy this story, one of my favourites.. Whatever next? by Jill Murphy
