Maths Home Learning

We are going to start off our Maths lesson by joining in with our counting forwards to 100 song.  Once you have done this, please write down all numbers to 100, making sure they are all formed correctly and in the right order.

Today, we are going to complete a maths problem challenge.  This is called Twizzle’s Journey.  This is based on a giraffe, just like the giraffe in The Smartest Giant in Town.  We need to get Twizzle the giraffe from one zoo to the other.

Let’s take a look.

English Home Learning

We are going to start our English lesson by looking at the picture of the cave.  I would like you to list as many as adjectives as possible to describe the cave.  Imagine you are stood in the cave, think about your senses.  Once you have done your list, please use your adjectives in sentences.

We are now going to move onto a new book for the next two week.  Our focus is going to be The Smartest Giant in Town, by Julia Donaldson.  Please listen to the story below:

This week we are going to be concentrating on the story, thinking about how we can change a part, then we will write our own story later in the week.

Today, I want you to think about the order of the story, this will show that you understand what has been read, the order and the events that happen. 

You can either create your own story board by drawing the important events of the story, or you can use the template below:

25.01.21

Remember it is important to write in full sentences, use capital letters, full stops, phonics and neat handwriting.

 

Cheeky Challenge:  What is your favourite part of The Smartest Giant in Town and why?
