Time for Tuesday Tasks!

Picture of the day: Here is the main character from our story – Hairy Maclary. Talk about what he does in the story. What does he look like? Who are his friends and what do they look like. Today you could write something about Hairy Maclary – maybe write about his adventures in the story or describe him. 

Sentence starter ideas: He is……   He has………. He went……….   I like……… 


Phonics: Letters and sounds lesson 12 today.

Phase 4 Challenge: Today we will look at the fl blend at the beginning of these words. You could make a flag and decorate it with words beginning with fl or just write the word flag in lots of different colours. Words for today (watch our for 2 digraphs in the last one):

float      flag    flap    flip    flower 


Reading Challenges Day 2: Try one of these reading challenges today, or look back to one you didn’t try yesterday.

Can you re-tell a favourite story using your toys at home?

Can you read with a friend or relative on the phone or online?


Maths: White Rose Maths (Superworm) day 2: The focus today is on drawing worms and making them into number lines.

Book-making: Have a go at making your own zig-zag book about pets or Hairy Maclary. Draw a picture on each page and write a short sentence or word to match it. Here is a photo of how to fold your piece of paper.

Craft: You could make a pet face out of a paper plate, or a circle of card. Use paint, paper or pencils/pens for adding colour and detail.

Time to Talk: This would be a great start for a conversation – you could change it by asking ‘if you were a pet what would you be and why’. 

Out of the Ark Music: Here is an update on a new way of presenting their free songs.

‘We’ve decided to adjust how we present our @HOME singing resources. We’re hoping our six simple categories will help you delve a little deeper and discover some new songs. Each week we will feature two songs of the week and one NEW song for you to try. 

Follow this link and choose a song or two today.
