Here is the learning for those of you who need to stay at home today!

Log into 'Twinkl Go' for your weekend phonics practise - today we are recapping the /i/ sound. Your passcode is  RC5326

​https://www.twinkl.co.uk/go





We are performing our poem for the Poetry Slam today.
Here is a video of the poem.
Can you perform it to an adult at home?
​Do you remember the actions?
Picture
In maths, we'll be thinking about the idea of 'one less'.
Can you find one less than a group of objects under 10?
​Start with counting the objects, then take one away and ask 'how many are left?'





For story time today, listen to Lucy reading 'Monkey Puzzle' by Julia Donaldson.
Can you retell the story to an adult afterwards? What happens in the beginning? The middle? What happens in the end?

Here are a list of the 100 high frequency we learn at Virginia. 

We aim for the children to learn to read the red sight words by the end of the autumn term, the blue sight words by the end of the spring term and the green sight words by the end of the year. If you have learnt to read the red sight words, can you spot them in your story books? Can you spell them? Can you write them in a sentence?

Lucy sent a letter to Santa today! 
Look at the envelope. Can you see Santa's name? Where is the address? Point to the stamp.
Picture
Here is the letter. You'll need to use your reading strategies. 
Remember to:
  • put your reading finger under the word
  • if it's a sight word - see the word, say the word
  • look at the letters, make the sounds and blend the sounds together
Recap these sight words to help you with today's reading >>>

Maths
We have thought about the number 8 today. Take a look at the ways you could think about number 8 at home. 
Picture
Challenge! Can you share 8 equally between you and 1 toy? How about sharing between you and 2 toys?
Send your learning in to admin@virginia.towerhamlets.sch.uk ready to talk through with Lucy.
