Recap long 'oo' sound lesson 5
Literacy
Well this is the last week of the Naughty Bus, we hope you have enjoyed the antics that your bus has been getting up to. Can you write a few sentences about what your bus has done? Some children have had lots of fun with their bus and it has been shared with us. Use high frequency words and tricky words in your writing.
Don't forget to read some books on Bug Club
Maths - Doubling
Recap on what doubling is. Use hands to show what is on one side is also on the other. Show doubling number sentences.
e.g. 4+4=8
Double number to 10, or for those who can, double numbers to 20.
Have a go at some things that require doubling. Choose a couple of them to complete.
Some suggestions are:
*Outside – have hoops or chalk circles and double the number that the adult says of things in the hoop or circle (place 5 sticks in it - the children have to get another 5 to double it…)
*Pick a number card and double it with objects…
*Part, Part, Whole with items in the circles.
*Children have A5 size paper and then fold it in half and then write a number on each half (same number) to create a doubling sheet. Can they work out the answer to the sheet?
Can do this with spots of paint too. This will show a visual for doubling. Dot paint blobs on one half of the paper, fold in half to squash the paint to the other side (doubling the blobs). Write a number sentence.
Music
Log into Charanga using your wonde card or login details, and have a look at the Big Bear Funk tasks set. Hopefully it worked last week… Work through what you like from there. There are also some song packages there too. Enjoy.
Tuesday HIDE THE BUS IN THE BUSHES, BUT IF YOU HAVE A POND THEN PLACE IT IN THERE WITHIN EASY REACH OF COURSE!

Giraffes: Blending with 'b' Lesson 5
Tigers and Elephants:
Literacy and Maths
The Naughty Bus went into the pond in the story. Can you find your naughty bus anywhere? Has it gone out into the garden? See if you can find it and rescue it. You might want to play a game with your grown up as they may know where it is. Can you use the words forward, backwards to find it? How many steps forwards? To the left? Can you hide it again and write or say some instructions for someone else to find it?
Perhaps you can find some friends for your bus. What type of friends would it have? Other modes of transport? Teddy bears? Can you write some number sentences for it? Find ‘one more’ and ‘one less’ if you were to add or take away any of his friends.

Topic
Using large card sheet or area of the garden or patio, design a pond.
Draw or paint picture of what might be in the pond.
Find items from around the gardern to make something that looks like a pond.
They could record their finding using mark making. They could draw images or mark sounds on the sheet. They could add labels to the different areas of the pond.
Have a look online at the different things that can be found in a pond. Can you draw them?
RE
Go outside on a windy day – we have had quite a few of those recently, but I bet today won’t be one! You can always save this for another windy day, or just talk about your child’s knowledge of what a windy day is like. Let the children have fun with windy toys. Talk about what is happening to the toys. Ask: How do you feel in the wind?
Back inside, read the story The Wind Blew by Pat Hutchins or watch it on YouTube
Collect ideas from this story about the wind. Think about words associated with wind by asking them to remember what the wind is like. Can they sound out some of the words they think of? They could draw a picture of the wind in the middle of a page and then write some words associated with it.
Play a game using ribbon streamers outside – perhaps make up a dance with a streamer (this can just be any piece of material)…

Topic
All our children know that Friday afternoon is ALWAYS FIX IT FRIDAY! Ask them, they will tell you! This is when we don’t have anything organised for the children: we have things to fix. If we have missed something through the week, or need to improve on something this is the time that we do it. Either have a rest, play or go back and complete something from the planning that you haven’t done.
