Continue to practise the Key Stage 1 common exception words. It is really important to you can read as many of these words as possible. These are tricky red words so be careful! With an adult, how many can you read in one minute? Maybe you could race against an adult!

With an adult, choose 6 spellings from the list. Practise writing them during the following week.  Can you notice any patterns or tricks to help you remember? An adult can quiz you on them next Friday. How many will you get right?

If you can read and write all of your Year 1 and 2 words, get a head start by practising the Year 3 spellings.

Have a go at making your own boat using origami! This task is all about helping you to learn how to fold paper so watch the video carefully and pay attention to how the person in the video folds the paper neatly.

Can you choose a book and read like Mr Wade? Remember you can choose a book from home or download one from the internet. 

Below (from last week) you will find the Common Exception words for Key Stage 1. Continue with practising reading and spelling these. Look for patterns and tricks that will help you remember how to spell them. Move on to the year 3 words if you can read and spell all of the Key Stage 1 words.

It is really important that you become as independent as possible. Being independent means that you can do things for yourself without needing an adult. It is an important part of growing up, so we would like you to watch the video and then practice tying the laces on a pair of shoes (if you can't already tie your laces). To begin with practise on a pair without wearing them. When you feel like you know how to tie the laces, practise tying them whilst you are wearing your shoes.

Hi everyone! Welcome to the last day of the week. What a lovely week it has been! 

The English lesson for today is about adverbs of time and adverbs of manner. You will be copying a written passage so remember to have your pencil and paper ready. 

For maths, we would like you to continue to work on using the symbols for 'more than' and 'less than'.  You will be learning how these symbols can be used to compare two number sentences.

Next, we would like you to look at the Year 1 and 2 common exception words. It is really important that you are able to read as many of the words as possible. These are tricky red words which means you can't use your sounds to spell them! With an adult, how many can you read in one minute? Maybe you could race against an adult!

Afterwards, with an adult, choose 6 spellings from the list. Practise writing them during the following week.  Can you notice any patterns or tricks to help you remember? An adult can quiz you on them next Friday. How many will you get right?

If you can read and write all of your Year 1 and 2 words, get a head start looking at the Year 3 ones.

Later, sit with an adult and watch Mr Newbert read to you. Click this link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9MV-wdyGCJk&feature=youtu.be

Afterwards, choose a book yourself from home or, with an adult, download a text from the internet. Sit together and practise reading it with expression like Mr Newbert did. There is also a reading activity on Purple Mash to complete, if you want to do that instead.

Enjoy your day and have a great weekend!
