Class 1 Home Learning Timetable Tuesday 12th January
Good morning class one,
We had a super day yesterday learning more about animals that like to live in winter conditions! We found out some fascinating facts! Well done for sharing your facts with your friends.
Remember to send photos and videos using class dojo portfolio and Google classroom so that we can see how your learning has been going.
I am here to help so please let me know if you need anything.
If you haven't listened to our story this week here it is.
The Polar Bear and the Snow Cloud. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9dJHSEGRBJY
Answer these questions.
How does the bear feel?
What do you think of the cloud building some friends for the polar bear?
How would you help polar bear?
How did the polar bears feel at the end of the story? Why?
Input 1: 9:30am
Mrs Coleman- Harris will lead this topic session for all of Reception and Nursery together.
Today we are going to be using our creativity and our investigative skills to build a sledge and a slope to test it out on! Join me at 9:30am to see my sledge and the slope I am going to test it out on.
After the session can you build your own sledge and slope using things from around the house such as craft materials and food packaging. What will you use to build them? You might like to draw and label how you want your sledge to look first.
Once you have built your sledge and slope can you test them out. Collect some dolls, Lego people or small world toys and put them in your sledge ready for a ride down the slope! Can you make your sledge travel fast? faster? slow? slower? Can you make it stop? How will you do this? What if you put some sand paper, foil or oil on the slope? What happens to your sledge then? You could explore building another sledge using different materials and see what happens when you test them out.
Remember to take some photos or a video of your learning and send it to us on Google classroom or dojo portfolio.

Reception:
You will be working with Mrs Coleman-Harris. Today we will be learning how to compare amounts to five using words such as more, fewer and the same. You will need to bring a plate and 5 small items with you like biscuits/sweets/ 5 pieces of apple.
After the session can you continue our activity from the input online. Get a teddy, another plate and 5 more pieces of food. Give some to you and some to teddy. Who has more/fewer/do you have the same? Could you draw a picture of what you see? Maybe your family can film you while you do some comparing? Send it to me on dojo portfolio or Google classroom.
Reception would you like some extra maths learning?
You can also work through the White Rose Maths home learning resources across the week here. You might like to work on one video a day. These mini video lessons support and help the Reception children to develop all of the maths we have been learning in class. Please follow what we are learning in the online sessions and the sessions on the white rose maths page for reception. These sessions are building on the children's previous learning and helping them to develop a deeper understanding of maths. https://whiterosemaths.com/homelearning/early-years/alive-in-5-week-1/
Please use the following link for out 1:30pm maths session.

We will not meet with you on Google Meet for your maths. I will post a video of the learning on dojo and google classroom. Please have a go at this maths activity at some point throughout the day. Also continue to work on the maths activities posted earlier in the week.
Can you go on a colour hunt around the house? What can you find that is red, blue, green, yellow, orange, purple etc? Collect a few different colour objects (up to 3 of each) and then sort them by colour. Can you group them by colour? Why does this belong in this group? Then can you subitise (say the amounts without counting) what you see? Send me some pictures of your super maths.
Input 3: 2:30pm Show and tell
Nursery and Reception find something that you would like to show and tell us about today. Bring it along with you at 2:30pm to tell us all about it!
