Two weeks ago I asked you to have a look at which plants grow in your garden. Today I would like you to go on a hunt and see which minibeast you can find in your garden. Watch the BBC Bitesize video to find out what minibeasts are and then complete the minibeast hunt.
Good morning Class 1. I hope you had a wonderful weekend and enjoyed your VE Day celebrations. We certainly had the perfect weather and your photos look fantastic.
Maths
Number bonds and addition facts are basic facts which are crucial in many aspects of maths. We looked at number bonds and addition facts in many different ways at the beginning of the spring term. The activities this week will recap and build on previous learning. You will see that children need to be able to see addition and subtraction facts in many different ways and representations.
Today follow the link: https://whiterosemaths.com/homelearning/year-1/ and click on Summer Term Week 3. Watch the video for lesson 1: Part-whole relationships number bonds, then have a go at the activities.
If you would like extra practice, the BBC Bitesize have created additional videos and activities. Sometimes it is helpful to see the same message presented in a different way. https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/articles/zh8m6v4
Today’s Reasoning and problem solving. Please remember that it is up to you what you choose to complete and what you feel is appropriate for your child at this moment.

Lets prepare for the celebration and your own street party!
To celebrate, there were many street parties across the country. Why not have your own ‘street party’ at home with your family. You could do lots of things to make it special:
Dress in red, white and blue
Make your own bunting to hang up
Make posters to show everyone what you are doing
Find some 1940s music to play
Make poppies to wear
Try some wartime recipes to make for your picnic
Find out what games children played and have a go at playing them
Enjoy an outdoor picnic in your garden, if the weather is good
Most of all HAVE FUN!
Make some bunting, colour in some flags and maybe even do some baking of some war time recipes!
We all have worries at one time or another they can be about all sorts of things. At the moment when things are very different, worries can become huge! Below is a lovely story about a little boy who worries about all sorts and finds a way to help himself by making worry dolls. Maybe you could make some too.
Here’s a lovely way of helping young children to understand the current situation.

VE Day Baking
Why not use your measuring skills and have a go at some wartime baking?
In school we have created a display board ready to display some of the fantastic things you have been doing during home learning. We would also like to add an area devoted to diary entries to document this time in history.
Please write you diary entry from today or another day this week. This will be a special snap shot in History for years to come!
You can use one of the writing templates I have sent to you if you want to.
