Primary 1 Learning Tasks Monday 27th April.

Good Morning boys and girls. I hope you all had a nice weekend! I’m looking forward to hopefully speaking to you all tomorrow!

Literacy: Phonics	Go to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TBA-R3Sx1Pc and watch the video. This will show you your new sound. If you can try to make a sound card to go in your phonics folder (small envelope folder in homework folders). How many words can you come up with that have the ‘wh’ sound? Here are some clues: The colour of snow Talking quietly. ________ is your name? Use your phonics folder and show your adult at home how many of your sounds that you can remember.
Literacy: Reading	Parents: Please go to https://www.oxfordowl.co.uk/user/sign_up.html and register for a free account. This will allow you and your child to access free reading books from home as obviously we are not able to issue new reading books at the minute. After your adult at home has created an account click on the E-Book section. In the search bar type in: The Big carrot. If you click on the speaker button the computer will read the book to you. Can you read the book to your adult at home?
Numeracy	Over the past two weeks you have been practicing drawing pictures to help you solve problems Today I want you to practice solving addition problems again. Parents: Feel free to make up your own however here are some examples to help. I know I get mind blanks when put on the spot. Also, please adapt the numbers depending on how easier or hard your child is finding the task. I have 4 teddy bears. How many eyes do they have altogether? I build a Lego tower that is 10 blocks high. If I had 4 more to the top, how many blocks do I now have altogether? Miss Robinson has 10 children in her class. Mrs Forth asks if 5 children from nursery can join us. How many children are there now? I have 4 plates with three cookies on each plate. How many cookies are there altogether?
