1) Library Book (Reading & Speaking)
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.

You can also use Oxford Owl to look for some audio books as well!

Some questions to ask your child while reading together:

Let's read two books about earning and spending money!

2) Mathematics (SSM)

They recognize, create and describe patterns. They explore characteristics of everyday objects and shapes and use mathematical language to describe them. 

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.

⭐ - 1 Star Challenge:

We will be sorting coins today and keep practicing how to make up the total of cents using different Brunei coins. 

You will need: lots of different Brunei coins; bowls/sorting trays; post it notes


Can you sort out the coins according to their denominations? Is there a different way for you to sort the coins? Which is the biggest value coin you have at home? How about the smallest value?

Have a look at the video and show us different ways you can make up 10, 25, 30, 35, 40 cents using different coins! 


⭐⭐ - 2 Star Challenge:

As you may have noticed, there are many different ways to pay items at the shop. Let's practice how to pay for different items in the shop again.

Remember if you see numbers after the dot like $1.20, it means it is one dollar and 20 cents!
Let us remember that and practice paying for different items 😊

Can you also try to put price tags for items you have at home?

 

Please modify pence to Brunei cents to complete the activity below:
How much money is in my jar?


3) Topic (Our Homes)
Learning Objectives (LO): ELG - Children know about similarities and differences in relation to places, objects, materials and living things. They talk about the features of their own immediate environment and how environments might vary from one another. They make observations of animals and plants and explain why some things occur, and talk about changes.

Remember we have found a route to get to a grocery shop near your house. Now, it is time for us to practice how to accurately pay what we want to get at the shop.

Visit the grocery shop near your house only if you can with your parents and pick one item you would like to get and pay. Can you first check how much the item costs? Check before you pay whether you have enough money to get the item from the shop. Were you able to pay and get the item successfully? 😊

Just in case you don't get to have a chance to visit the grocery shop today, here are some list of items with price tags from Supasave. Look closely at how much each item costs and practice paying for items you want!
