Mondays lesson

Fitness today

My boys really enjoyed doing this fitness activity. I even did it and it was really fun. See if you can get your mum, dad, brothers and sisters doing it :)

Its only 5 minutes and is a good way to wake up your brain ready for some learning.

Maths

Let's start off with counting to 100.

Room 4 you are all amazing at counting forwards BUT can you count backwards?

Today let's work on counting backwards from 20.

Here is a song to help practise counting backwards from 20

Can you complete the missing numbers on the following table?

20		18		16
15		13		11
	9		7
		3

Extra challenge is;

*Count backwards from 20 with your eyes closed

*Count backwards from 20 while standing on 1 foot

*Find someone in your house and count backwards from 20

Writing

Today for writing we are going to do what we do in class every Monday 'Weekend Writing'

Here are some ideas you could write about;

• what have you been doing in your bubble
• what activities have you done with your family
• how you have helped your family
• any new games you have learnt

Remember to use;

a capital letter

full stop

finger spaces

listen to our sounds

Reading

Remember to read every night or have someone read to you. You could even read your favourite story to your brother or sister.

Here are our sight words. Try and practise them everyday. Your goal is to say it before the lady does. Good luck!!!

Handwriting

Today our focus letter is 'r'

Remember to start at the top and go down, then back up and over.

Here is a video to help

Extra Challenge;

Can you write as many words as you can that begin with 'Rr'?

 Let's end the day with a paper plane competition. You could get your family to make one too.

Here is a video to help you, all you need is some paper.

Once it is made you can go and fly it and see which plane flies further.

Great job today Room 4. Remember you can send me in any photos of your work.

Good afternoon from Mrs Romaniuk
