English

In the packs that went home last week you were given a copy of the story Billy and The Dragon. Please complete task 5 today.

Activity 5

Write a retell of the story Billy and the Dragon in your own words.

Try to remember what happened in the beginning, middle and at the end. Write a sentence for each part of the story.

Can you include adjectives to describe in your story?

Phonics and Reading

Today we would like you to revisit the ‘th’ sound. Please watch the lesson at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HVTn8gyM4Ag Ask the children to write the sound th and spell words with th in them. E.g three, that, this, thing

*Please be aware, we do not ask Year 1 to write using any letter joins.

Maths

Today’s activity sheet is to ‘Count one less.’ Try to relate to yesterday’s work on one more so children understand that it is the opposite. Remember that ‘one less’ is the number before the starting number so it will be smaller – children might find it helpful to make a number track.
