Comparing Lengths and Heights Starter: Play Duck Shoot. Choose ‘5’ to practise counting in 5s. Count on in 5s from the number by the first duck, and select the right duck that matches the target number at the back.
Questions You practised comparing lengths and heights a lot yesterday. I saw some great objects used for comparison! Warm-up by completing today’s interactive activity. Please note it only looks at longer/ shorter/ equal, and not taller. Then, please complete today’s question sheet.
Bonus Challenge It’s a juicy maths challenge today! It’s quite a puzzle. My top tip would be to write out the children’s names on different small pieces of paper, or post-its. Then read each child’s piece of information in turn. Explain your thinking out loud, and use what they tell you to order the children. Good luck! Please feedback how you found this, and whether you needed help. |

English – Using the suffixes ‘er’ and ‘est’
First of all, please listen to today’s book. Then, watch today’s video for an explanation of how we change adjectives when we compare things. Complete the spoken and written activities.
For the last one, make sure you draw a big picture to show your idea. The sentence stem I give you to use is:
The ______ thing is the world is a _______________.
I can’t wait to see your ideas! Bonus Challenge Could you add a second sentence, and use it to show off some of the conjunctions you know, such as ‘and, but, because, so’. For example: ‘The cow wears the crown because she thinks she is the queen of all cows, but really she is just a normal cow.’
Parent note: Spelling rules such as changing a y into an i when adding the suffix (e.g. smelly – smellier - smelliest) are in the Year 2 curriculum, but you may encounter this when your child thinks of some examples. In Year 1 we focus on examples where the root work doesn’t change, for example, high – higher – highest.

Watch today’s video to hear about the different ways the letter ‘u’ can be pronounced. Sadly, there’s no rule for this one. Instead, you just have to try the way you know, then try the other way if it doesn’t make sense.
Your task 1) Play Cheeky Chimps, to practise both ways of sounding out ‘u’. 2) Paperchains Print today’s words, or ask a grown-up to print out. Read them, and sort them into two groups. Then create two paperchains, one for each way of pronouncing u. Think about which way of reading ‘u’ is more common. I wonder which chain will be longer, and why?

Compare numbers within 50. Before half-term, you compared representations of numbers within 50: using base-10, beadstrings, tens frames etc. Today you are using precisely the same skill, but looking at numbers instead.
Starter: Counting Down from 100! We need to keep practising counting as well. Today let’s start the half-term with a big one: counting down from 100! The hardest bits are going across tens boundaries, such as 80 to 79. Can you get them all right?
Input Work through today’s lesson slides: focus on the language we use to describe more and less. ‘Fewer’ and ‘fewest’ can sometimes catch us out!
Questions I’ve recorded a video explaining a couple of the style of questions you’ll encounter. Then, please try today’s worksheet. There’s also an optional game included: as you can see, playing Top Trumps helps you with maths!

Phonics: u_e huge brute
Starter: We’ve now learned all the split digraph sounds. This catchy video is a useful recap of how each sound is changed when the ‘magic e’ appears. A great challenge for it is to shout out the new word with the split digraph before it’s said in the song: you’d need to be very fast!
Focus sound: u_e Mr Lynn introduced this sound before half-term. Can you remember both ways you might say the sound? Watch Mr Thorne to see if you remembered correctly, then use our reading routine to read the words in the video.
Reading Last time you spelled words by jumping between letters at home! This time use Picnic on Pluto, which is a bit less energetic!

Compare objects within 50. Once again, this area should be familiar to you, but we are now working with greater numbers. It’s time for the greedy alligators again!
We revisit the same areas after a short period of time to help you to really get secure and confident in your learning. Starter: Let’s give our number bond brains a workout. Let’s play Number Lines Addition again. Set your ‘target number’ as 10 or 20 depending on which number bonds you are working on. If you even find 20 easy, try choosing different numbers within 20: that’s quite a challenge! Input Watch today’s video tutorial with Katie. It will help to make or use some practical resources to represent 10s and 1s, like you have previously. Reasoning Activity To practise this skill, have a go at this reasoning activity. Aim to ‘be the teacher’ and explain out loud why you think you are right. If can help to use the words ‘I think____ because____’ to help you to explain what you mean. For each question, it’s useful to count what each representation is worth as a first step. ‘Count them’ as we all chant in class! Game – for two players Use the attached sheet. If you can, please print them, cut them out and place them face down. Each player picks a card. Decide who has got the greater number, and say this out loud. for example: ‘The straws are worth 36, which is greater than the base 10, which is worth 24. The person with the greater number wins. Record each comparison sentence on the score sheet.
If you are unable to print, you could each pick one on your screen, and say your comparison sentence out loud. Good luck!

Fact-files: Emperor Penguins
Your Task Rehearse Today, use your brilliant text maps to rehearse saying your emperor penguin fact-file out loud. Use your actions to help you. When you are confident, you can start to write it.
Writing Today’s task involves a bit more writing than normal, and I’d like you to really take care with it, so I’m going to give you the time for today’s lesson and Monday’s to do a great job. If writing the whole fact-file is too much for you, just do as much as you can. I can’t wait to read what you came up with!
For each sentence, use your text map to say each sentence out loud before you write it. Have a go at sounding out each work carefully, and try hard to remember punctuation.
I’ve attached a template with a few different versions, or you can write yours straight onto paper. On the templates, there’s space for you to draw an emperor penguin, which will finish off your fact files nicely.

We will work on a few letters at a time as we move forward. In class we have practised all non-cursive letters, and had just started pre-cursive letters on the Monday before lockdown. If your child is secure with their non-cursive formation, please practise pre-cursive letters. If they are not, please continue to practise non-cursive. Please message me if you need some advice on this.
Today, using the pre-cursive or non-cursive PowerPoint, please practise one line each of: c, o and a. Try to make all your letters the same size as each other. Remember that these are all formed using the same initial movement.

Adding by Counting On We are moving onto a new block of learning now: addition and subtraction (within 20). Key today is learning to ‘count on’, not ‘count all’. Counting on is great: when you grasp it, it makes adding so much easier! Starter: Doubles Rap https://tinyurl.com/ncay3bx Brush up on your doubles and your rapping skills. Can you represent the doubles up to 5+5 using your fingers? Input: Video Tutorial Today, please watch the video tutorial on CSK: Add by Counting On Video Tutorial. When we’ve talked about counting on in class, you may remember me saying: ‘We already have 5, so we don’t need to count them. Instead let’s count on from 5…’ We always count on from the greater number, whether it comes first or second in the number sentence.
After watching the video, have a go yourself. Create some number sentences below 20. Remember: * Always count on from the greater number. * You only need to draw images for/ represent the smaller number to help you to count on. Questions Complete today’s work, attached in Teams. You’ll need to make/ draw the number sentences to help you to work out the answers. I’ve including an optional discussion problem as well to push on your thinking! |

Reading Challenge One type of punctuation we’ve looked at is exclamation marks.
We’ve learned that they are used to represent a strong feeling such as surprise, excitement, anger or fear. They can also show a character is raising their voice.
Look through some of the story books you have at home. Can you spot where the author has used exclamation marks? Read the sentence and try to work out which strong feeling the exclamation mark is showing. Then, try reading the sentence with lots of expression. For example: “Get out of my room!”
This should be read in a really angry voice. |

The Three Little Pigs: Wanted Poster
Thank you for some excellent planning work: I saw some super use of adjectives, and some rather frightening wolves!
Today we’ll create a poster, by turning those adjectives into sentences. I’ve attached a template for a Wanted Poster, or you could make your own.
Choose your favourite adjectives to turn into sentences. Remember to say your sentence out loud and count the words on your fingers before you write.
Try to start your sentences in different ways, such as: His teeth are…. He is…. The wolf is…. Beware of….. Remember to use finger spaces, neat handwriting and punctuation.
Extra Challenge: Similes Similes compare one thing to another to create a powerful description. For example: It was as stinky as cheese left on a radiator. This unicorn’s horn was as sharp as a needle. Could you include any similes in your Wanted Poster? He is as _______ as a __________. His teeth are as _________ as a _________.

Geography: The Seven Continents and Five Oceans If you have a globe or atlas at home, they’ll be great to use for this lesson.
Input https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/articles/zw7gsk7 Watch the first video to learn about the different ways we map the world. You can use Google Earth https://earth.google.com/web/ for fantastic satellite images of the globe, as explained in the video. Can you zoom in and find your home? Can you zoom out and see all of Barwick, all of Leeds and all of the UK?
Then return to the BBC Bitesize page, and watch the second video, which introduces the names of the seven continents. Can you identify them on Google Earth (zoom out even further), a globe or an atlas you may have at home?
A story… Watch this reading of ‘Lost and Found’ by Oliver Jeffers, or read the book if you have it at home.
Where do you think the boy and his Penguin went? Where might you find penguins? They went to Antarctica, the continent we are going to be learning more about in Geography this half-term. Back to Google Earth: if they left from the UK, can you see how far they would have had to travel? Can you name any of the oceans they would have had to travel through?
Activity Look at the shape of the continents. For at least one continent, can you draw the shape using chalk outside, or make its shape using any craft materials you might have at home. You could make your own world map, or just stick to one continent, it’s up to you! Given today’s weather, this might be an indoor task unless you wish to make Antarctica using snow!

Numbers from 11 to 20 Starter Let’s start with a counting down video we use at school: https://tinyurl.com/pwl5uoj Input Log in to CSK, and follow ‘Numbers from 11 to 20 Lesson Slides’. Please press the play button in the corner of the slides to hear their explanation. Some key learning comes from slide 12, that we don’t always need to count from 1 to work out what a representation is worth. If we know the first part is worth ten, we can count from there: much easier! Questions I’ve attached a sheet with questions for this lesson. Please choose the level of challenge: they start at D(red), then E(blue), then GD(gold). Pick the one that suits you best today with a grown-up. Try to complete two varied fluency questions on page one, and two reasoning/ problem solving questions two.
You do not have to print the sheet, but can write your answers on paper separately.

The Three Little Pigs Re-read the model text together. Can you begin to use expression when the characters are talking? Think about how the pigs and the wolf are feeling when then talk. Bad News! I have some bad news: the little pig that came yesterday has disappeared! Instead I found a new letter from the Big Bad Wolf. It's attached for you to read.... Planning a Poster We need to catch this wolf! To do this, we will be making ‘Wanted Posters’ tomorrow, so people know we are looking for him. Today are going to plan our posters. Watch this rocking wolf song to help you to get some ideas of how to describe the wolf. It suggests lots of adjectives to describe the wolf, which you might use. Role on the wall I’ve attached a wolf outline (or you can draw your own). On the outside of the wolf, please write words to describe his appearance. For example, long nose or two pointy ears. On the inside of the wolf, write words to describe his personality, for example greedy or nasty.
Tomorrow we will use this work to create sentences about the wolf on our posters. |

RE: What does it mean to belong?
Follow the attached PowerPoint. I’ve added questions to discuss with an adult as you go through the slides. The task at the end of the PowerPoint is to design a symbol to represent belonging to our class. It’d be great to see your ideas.
