Hi to everyone at home,

Tomorrow we will be using the laptops to write our own set of instructions. You may remember we had a quick look at this last week, and so you should (hopefully!) have some idea how to do it.

If you follow the link below, work through the activities in the ‘main session’ section. You can order the different steps and you can also write your own instructions using your computer keyboard.

Lots of us whizzed through subtraction today, so we moved on to subtraction on a number line:

Here is a link to a fabulous game we enjoy playing a lot in class. It’s great for practising number bonds to 10 (which are really important in Year 1) and we have also had a go at the ‘doubles’ game:

Practising the spellings at the back of the yellow spelling folder is also an excellent thing to do. The following app is brilliant for learning spellings and is the best app I’ve found which helps with this. It costs a few pounds and requires an iPad or similar, but is well worth it. Revising any of the spelling patterns that we have had in words throughout Year 1 would be very useful: https://keystagefun.co.uk/literacy-apps/squeebles-spelling-test/

Thinking of you all,
