Class 1 Home Learning Timetable Wednesday 27th January
Good morning class one,
We had another super day yesterday writing party invitations and playing 'What's the time Mr Wolf!"
Remember to send photos and videos using class dojo portfolio and Google classroom so that we can see how your learning has been going.
I am here to help so please let me know if you need anything.
Input 1: 9:30am-We would like to see everyone at 9:30am for this online session.
Mrs Coleman- Harris will lead this session for all of Reception and Nursery together.
Today we are going to be developing our maths skills. Nursery and Reception will have some different activities to work on today to help them develop their maths skills.
We will start off with a maths activity together at 9:30am. You will need something to draw with.
I will then set Nursery's maths challenge, continue online learning with Reception for a while and then set Reception off on their challenge. Join me online at 9:30am to find out some more!
Here are your challenges for after our online session this morning;
Nursery
Nursery are going to explore number some more today.
Can you sing some number songs and use toys, pictures, cut outs and marks to represent the thing you are singing about.
There are some number songs here or you could create your own number song. https://www.bbc.co.uk/teach/school-radio/nursery-rhymes-counting-songs/zn67kmn
This activity will help the children to develop understanding when using marks to show their maths thinking and to represent numbers. There are opportunities to subitise while doing this activity and it will also help the children to learn about number patterns (counting forwards and backwards!) So much maths can be learnt through song!
Here are some resources you may like to use and also some extra maths activities for nursery to have a go at whenever you would like.
Subitise 3 or not 3? Talk about what you see and try not to count!
Reception
Today we are going to learn more about the numbers 6,7 and 8.
Can you subitise as you complete the activity? Talk about what you see and how you see it for example; I see more than 6. I see 6! I see 3 and 3 and that is also 6. I see 1,1,1,1,1, and another 1 and that is also 6!
If you are using a tens frame to collect resources and look at the amount can you talk about what you see. Is the the frame full or not full? What do you see? I see 6 full and 4 more spaces to fill and then that would be 10.
Reception maths learning- Would you like some more maths learning to complete at home?
Reception can work through the White Rose Maths home learning resources across the week here. You might like to work on one video a day. These mini video lessons support and help the Reception children to develop all of the maths we have been learning in class. Please follow what we are learning in the online sessions and the sessions on the white rose maths page for reception. These sessions are building on the children's previous learning and helping them to develop a deeper understanding of maths. https://whiterosemaths.com/homelearning/early-years/growing-6-7-8/
Remember to take some photos or a video of your learning and send it to us on Google classroom or dojo portfolio.
