​English and Literacy
Handwriting – We are learning to join letters together in cursive script. Revise tricky words. I'll pop a video on Teams for the letter formation.
Phonics/Spelling – We are learning how to use our phonics knowledge to spell words. Look at your spelling list- oa. Create your own flashcards with your word list and read them with speed. Choose two activities from the spelling grid to help you with your spelling the words.
Reading – check emails to see what book you are to read on Oxford Owl this week. We are learning to find any unfamiliar words and understand their meaning. Complete Word Detective - look at the story words in front cover and find the meaning of any you do not understand. Look at the sounds and words within the front cover section of the book.

I'll pop up a couple of videos of some stories this week on to Teams.

Numeracy and Maths
Basic Maths – We are learning fast recall for mental maths. Play a game to revise your basic maths facts.
Sumdog – Play 10 minutes.
Numeracy (multiplication) – We are learning how to count in 3s. We are learning to recognise and make equal groups.

• Practise counting forwards/backwards in threes and complete the counting in 3s activity. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I_cn87hOCDM&t=14s
  
• Use Recognise Equal Groups with audio PowerPoint with the matching paper copy. Then complete the Make Equal Groups and Add Equal Groups activity.

Health and Well-Being
HWB – We are learning about how germs are spread and controlled. Like the ‘preparing a sandwich task last week, demonstrate making a fruit salad. Think about safety issues with the sharpness of a knife and how to hold it and the fruit whilst keeping your fingers safe! You could make fruit salad or help chop vegetables for dinner or soup. You can take photos or draw yourself creating the food, then label them with the main points of hygiene and safe use of equipment.
Physical Activity – Please see Mr Cocolin’s PE timetable in Files on Teams. 

Join Mr Cocolin at 2.35pm on Teams to do some dance.
