Maths ~ Reception

In our classroom we have been focusing on recognising and making collections up to 5. We have been exploring making these by using a range of materials.

Can you retell what is important when we are counting collections?

Should we count it fast or slow... why?

_________________________

Today we will be using the page of the storybook 'Kipper's Birthday' by Mick Inkpen

(you might like to listen to the story today too! - click on the video below)

Can you retell how old Kipper is turning?

How do you know?

Make a cake and show the same number of candles - you might like to draw the cake and use objects as candles, or you might like to make it all using some paper, pens, scissors and glue!

__________

Here is my cake!

I have 5 candles on my cake!

Can you tell me how many I have left over?

Now it is your turn to find 5 objects around the house - how many different collections can you make?

I look forward to seeing them!😊

Maths ~ Nursery!

 5 Little Ducks!

In Maths, we have been learning how to recite numbers to and from 5, and beyond.

To help us do this, we sing and re-enact Nursery Rhymes daily.

Click on the picture above to sing the Nursery Rhyme - 5 Little Ducks.

To help you, you could make some ducks!

You could draw these, paint these or even make masks.

You could also use your fingers to support you with retelling the numbers.

_______________

Can you remember our new song '5 Little Birdies'?

It is sung to the same tune as '5 Little Ducks'.

Have a go with your family 😊

You might like to record it and send it to us at debeauvoirprimaryschool@gmail.com

I can't wait to see!!

P L A Y !

Listening and Attention Games ~ Nursery

We have been exploring sounds around us to help support and develop our knowledge of sounds.

We are continuing to explore environmental sounds and instrumental sounds. While the sun is shining, you might like to go on an environmental walk - listening to the sounds around you!

Or you might like to do it at home! Close your eyes and listen to the sounds around you... you might hear birds, cars, sirens, wind.

Encourage full sentences - I can hear...

You could use this activity to mark make - draw the things you heard! Have a go at exploring the colours and shapes of all the things you heard.

Phonics ~ Word Time Lesson! ~ Reception

This morning for our Phonics Session we will be completing our Word Time lesson.

Before we begin, let's revisit our sound from yesterday - can you remember which one we did?

Practise teaching your family our sound - can you find some things around the house that begin with rrrrr?

___________________________

WordTime 1.4

Using cut up paper - write the sounds: m, a, s, d, t, i, n, p, g, o, c, k, u, b, f, e, l, sh

Practise your speedy sounds by retelling the sounds - remember to be super speedy and sharp!

Now, using your sounds - let's use our Fred Talk to help us read the whole words.

Ask an adult to read the sounds:

'h e n'              'sh o p'             'f i sh'

Have a go now at using your cut up sound cards to make some of our green words below.

Finally, have a go at using your Fred Talk to read these words!

Can you find the special friend?

Terrific Tuesday!

To start our morning off, let's sing our Days of the Week song!

Can you share with your family:

Today is ________

Yesterday was _________

Tomorrow will be _________

Have a look on the bead string below (just like the one we have on our working wall!) can you retell what the date is today?

I will give you a hint... yesterday was the 16th, so it is one more than 16 (such a big number!)

You could use objects around the house to help you with counting😊

Today is _______

The date is the ____ of November

Have a go at counting your way to today's date! Ask an adult to help you😃

Some ideas you could do are:

- clapping

- jumping

- stomping

- fairy claps

- fairy jumps

- star jumps
