In the packs that went home last week you were given a copy of the story Billy and The Dragon. Please complete task 2 today.

Recap the story with your child and then put the pictures in order. Which event happened at the beginning? What happened next? What happened at the end of the story? Label the pictures with a number.

Draw a story map of your own to show what happens in the story of Billy and the Dragon. Draw pictures to show important events.

Phonics and Reading

Today we would like you to revisit the sound ‘sh’. Use the video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m4vteSCD9YY to remind children of the sound. Challenge the children to spell words with the sh sound in. For example sh-o-p, sh-i-p etc. 

You will find useful phonics videos on Ruth Miskin youtube channel.

Please log on to Reading eggs by following the instructions in your pack, and the log in details you have been given.

Maths

Today’s activity sheet is titled: ‘Represent Objects.’

Children have been learning that one object can be represented by another – for example – one elephant can be represented by one cube or counter. Today, children could be challenged to write the numeral as a written word too.

Challenge! Discuss the problem below & share your ideas with an adult

Science
