Here are Thursday’s activities for those of you self-isolating.

Maths

Today, we have been learning to count in twos. Join in with this fun song: counting in 2s 

Try counting in 2s up to 20 and back. Do this a few times until you are feeling quite confident. You may need the numbers written down for you as you say them.

Now, have a go at filling in the missing numbers in these patterns: t-t-2544388a-winter-path-missing-numbers-counting-in-2s-to-20-activity-sheet-black-and-white

English

We were writing some sentences about the owl lady’s visit. Can you remember a fun trip you went on? Maybe you saw some fireworks last weekend. Can you write a recount of your trip to tell other people all about it? You may want to use words like ‘first’, ‘then’, ‘after that’ and ‘finally’. Don’t forget to use capital letters and full stops.

Remembrance Service

We went into the hall for a special assembly for Remembrance Day. Can you find out more about Remembrance Day? Who are we remembering and why? Why do people wear poppies? You may like to watch this animation from CBeebies to help you understand it better: Poppies animation

Phonics

Today we were learning the ‘ew’ grapheme. Watch the Mr Thorne clip and join in sounding out the words: ew grapheme

Can you write some of these words if an adult dictates them to you?

RE

We were discussing why the Bible is so important for Christians today, and looking at how it is split into the Old Testament and the New Testament. The Nativity is the first story in the New Testament. What happens in this story? Who is born?! Have fun making your own nativity scene and then see if you can retell the story to an adult: make-your-own-nativity-scene-a4-_ver_1

Remember that it’s spelling test day tomorrow so keep practising!
