W6 Tuesday Learning Blog

Good morning Reception Class πŸ˜Ž Welcome to Week 6 Virtual School!

There are 3 different learning areas for you to work on every day.
Try to follow the instructions carefully and complete the tasks according to your learning pace!

Please be prepared to share some of your work during the end of the day Zoom meeting at 11:30 am with your teachers. Don't forget to upload at least one task on Tapestry for teachers to see how hard you've been working daily! Keep up the good work πŸ˜Š

1) Phonics Book (Literacy)
Learning Objectives (LO): Reading ELG - Children read and understand simple sentences. They use phonic knowledge to decode regular words and read them aloud accurately. They also read some common irregular words. They demonstrate understanding when talking with others about what they have read.
Writing ELG - Children use their phonic knowledge to write words in ways which match their spoken sounds. They also write some irregular common words. They write simple sentences which can be read by themselves and others. Some words are spelt correctly and others are phonetically plausible.

Tuesday is our day to work on Phonics Book!
Please take the time to complete one page per week and follow your own child's pace of learning.
Keep practicing reading and writing πŸ™‚

2) Mathematics (SSM)
Learning Objectives (LO): Children count reliably with numbers from one to 20, place them in order and say which number is one more or one less than a given number. Using quantities and objects, they add and subtract two single-digit numbers and count on or back to find the answer. They solve problems, including doubling, halving and sharing.

There are two different types of Maths activities. Please feel free to move from one star challenge to another depending on your mastery remembering what works best for you. 
Don't forget that learning is fun πŸ˜‰

Please download and work on Numbots daily if possible - your child will have an individual login to access this.

⭐ - 1 Star Challenge:

Let's practice doubling the numbers using counters! 
Have a look at the video of how Ms. Kris used her coin counters to add same number twice 😊



Can you double the ladybird spots and write the number sentence accordingly?
Remember! We are adding the same number two times!

Lady Bug Doubles Activity

⭐⭐ - 2 Star Challenge:

Today we will practice how to solve mathematical problems. First, it is very important to read the problems very carefully. Choose at least 2 home learning challenges to solve the doubling mathematical problem. You can try to draw or use counters to solve the problem!

Have a look at how Ms. MJ solved one of the maths problems 😊



Can you show us how you solved the problems? 

Problem Solving - Doubling 


3) Topic (Transportation)
Learning Objectives (LO): ELG - Children use what they have learnt about media and materials in original ways, thinking about uses and purposes. They represent their own ideas, thoughts and feelings through design and technology, art, music, dance, role play and stories.

Today you will be making your actual future dream vehicle you have designed yesterday. Look around the house and collect some materials (recycled materials the better!) to make your own transportation.

Then, it is time to practice our speaking skills!
Can you explain in detail what special features your vehicle have?
What is special about your car, rocket, ship, etc.? What can it do?

If you can, upload a video of yourself explaining about your vehicle πŸ˜‰ Have fun!

Have a look at some pictures of other children's dream future vehicle below:
