Before 0900- Wake Up and Get Dressed

Get ready for the day with independence; have a wash, dress yourself, eat breakfast and brush your teeth.

0900-0930 - Reading

Log on to Tapestry to listen to one of the teachers read this week’s story! 

If you are having trouble accessing our video, choose a book at home to read to yourself or share with someone in your family.

After listening to the story, you will need to complete a Reading Challenge of your choice each day from the grid below.

0930-1000- Maths Challenge

Warm up by counting to 10, forwards and backwards.  

Your Maths learning each day will begin by watching a video on the White Rose Maths website.  Watch the video and then complete the challenge found in the 'Additional Resources' section at the bottom of the page.  

White Rose – Alive in 5! – Week 2 – Session 1- https://whiterosemaths.com/homelearning/early-years/alive-in-5-week-2/

At the bottom of the page there are also some additional maths challenges. These are only to be completed after the initial White Rose lesson and challenge. Only complete them if they are appropriate for your child, or you have spare time in your day.  

1000-1045- Home Learning Challenge 

Choose one of the challenges on your Reception Home Learning Challenges grid to complete.  The grid can be found in the 'Additional Resources' section at the bottom of this page or on our Year R COVID-19 Home Page in the 'Challenges' section.  

1045-1115 Break Time

Have one healthy snack: a banana, apple, orange etc. with a glass of milk or water.  Take some time to relax, maybe you could listen to another story online. 

1115 - 1145- Live Daily Zoom Session

Don't forget to log into zoom for our daily session. It will be great to see you all and a chance to catch up with all your friends.

1145 - 1215 – Enquiry Challenge

Head onto Tapestry to watch the start of the story ‘Here We Are’ by Oliver Jeffers. In the front of the book it shows us which planet we live on. It is just one of 8 planets in our solar system - this is planet Earth. 

Can you draw a picture of our planet, Earth? Can you then label it with things you know about Earth? For example you might label the land and sea, rocks, countries, or maybe some of the animals or objects we have. As a final challenge you could add the sentence to your picture- ‘We live on Earth’.  The pictures below are to help you with your sentence structure.    

1200 - 1300 - Lunchtime

1300- 1330 – Phonics
Open Tapestry and watch the video ‘Set 1 Speed Sounds.’  Say the sounds along with the video; can you remember them all and say them first?  You should watch and say your Speed Sounds every single day. 
After warming up with your Speed Sounds, watch your Phonics Lesson video on Tapestry.

1330 Onwards- Plan, Do, Review – 

Encourage your child to make a Learning Choice from a list of options (change these to suit) but they should include selecting from:

• Indoor exercise (Cosmic Yoga – found on Youtube or GoNoodle);

• Go for an afternoon walk;

• A Home Learning Challenge;

• A Forest School Challenge;

• Be creative (craft, painting, playdough, baking);

• Exercise (ride your bike, go for a run, play football/rugby);

• Quiet activity (puzzle, colouring, board game);

• Screen time on a learning website/app (links can be found on the ‘Useful Websites to Support Home Learning’ section of our COVID-19 Yr R Page).

When your child has made their choice, discuss: Where are they going to do their Learning Choice?  What exactly are they going to be doing?  How are they going to do it?

When they have completed their Learning Choice, Review it.  What went well?  How could they improve it?  You could revisit it tomorrow afternoon to improve.  What have they learnt? 

When you have finished, enjoy some free time to yourself or to spend with your family. 

We hope you have had a lovely day and we can’t wait to see your uploads on Tapestry.
