Good Morning I look forward to seeing you for English, Phonics and our afternoon catch up. In our catch up session this afternoon I would like you to bring along your favourite story book that you have at home.
English
Watch this language rich version of Jack and the Beanstalk.
This version has some lovely language in it. The author has thought really carefully about the words he has used. This helps make it really interesting to listen to.
I have picked some of the words from the story, see if you can find the words that have a similar meaning. This is a great activity for building up your vocabulary. If you’d rather not print out the sheet below just record the answers in your red book.
Phonics
If you can’t join in with our live session at 11 then please watch Lesson 24 of the Year 1 Spring Term Lessons. where we will be reviewing different ways of spelling the igh sound.
Here is the game that you can play too – have fun!
Science
In this lesson, we will be experimenting with different types of materials which have different weights. We will be creating our structures to experiment with in the next lesson, ‘Will the wall I’ve built withstand strong winds?’. You will need playdough, twigs or sticks, hay or straw, sugar cubes, lego or plastic bricks and lastly glue or sticky tape. If you don’t have these things, you can just watch the video. At the end please answer the questions and then draw the table into your book and sort the list of materials into heavy and light.
