►Phonics

Today we are going to be revising recognising the sounds that we have learnt already.

Go to ictgames.co.uk and click on English Games. Then click on Shark Sounds and select any set of sounds up to Set 7. The aim of the game is for your child to click on the correct sound as it is called out on screen.

Repeat the game a few times with different sets, focussing on the sounds which your believe your child needs to practise.

►Maths

Today we are going to be ordering numbers to create number lines.

First practise counting up and down from 0-10 and 10-0 and then 0-20 and 20-0.

Then give your child numbers on pieces of paper from 0-10 and ask them to place them in order. Encourage the to count along if they need some support.

Then repeat the activity but going backwards.

If your child finds this easy, challenge them further by asking them to order numbers forwards and backwards from 0-20 and 20-0.

►International Women's Day

In recognition of International Women's Day, we are thinking about what we would like to be when we grow up.

Watch the video below and talk about different jobs that your child could do when they are older.

Talk about what they might need to do or learn in order to achieve their goals.

Make a list of the things that your child says.

Blue challenge: ask your child to draw a picture of themselves with a happy face.

Green challenge: ask your child to draw a picture of themselves doing their dream job.

Purple challenge: use the sheet below. Ask your child to draw the uniform and their face on the template and then write the end of the sentence in the thought bubble.
