Good morning Reception!

Today, let's revisit Jack and the Beanstalk! Login to Espresso and watch the traditional tale...

​

After you've watched the story, enter the activities section and then open the Jack and the Beanstalk quiz.

​Work with an adult to answer the questions!

Phonics

Maths

Ordering cups! Today you will need to ask a grown up to help you set up the cup challenge - and then ask you questions! 

What you will need

• 4 cups that are the same
• a jug with water to pour

Important vocabulary: full, half full, empty, nearly full, nearly empty - maybe you could have a go at writing these down on some cards. 

Questions for an adult to ask you get you thinking!

Can you make one cup empty?
Can you find the full cup?
Which cup has the most in it?
Can you make one cup nearly full?
Can you make one cup nearly empty?
Can you order all the cups from empty to full?
Can you order the cups from full to empty?
Can you find the cup that is half full?
Can you add another two cups?
What would happen if we had two cups that were half full, and then poured them into the same cup?

Story time

Here is a puppet show of 'I WANT MY HAT BACK' by the amazing Little Angel Theatre - I hope you enjoy it!
