Our story today is called No Place Like Home. 
Click on the picture to listen to the story.

Where is George's home? How would you feel if you couldn't find your home?

You challenge today is to write as many adjectives as you can to describe how you would feel if you discovered you were away from home.

Here is an adjective to start you off: 


Healthy lifestyle


Did you guess what it was Year 1? It's an orange! Well done if you got it right 👍  Here is the picture, completely zoomed out:


To keep ourselves healthy and strong, we should be making sure that we eat lots of things that are good for our bodies. This means having fruit and vegetables, proteins, dairy and some fats.


Draw an outline of a body. You can copy the picture below. Now, fill the body with food that is good for you. You could draw pictures, or find images from magazines at home.

Money recognition

Hi Year 1! Do you remember when we had our own shop?
Miss Ali and Ms Hazel were selling lots of different things for you to buy with your (pretend) money.


Have a go at matching the coins and notes to their correct amounts:

Did you know that, the size of the coin doesn't tell us how much the coin is worth. Only the value does.



Which coin has the smallest value?
Which coin has the largest value?

Which note has the smallest value?
Which note has the largest value?

E-Safety

Hi Year 1,

Last term in Computing, we were learning how to copy and paste images from the internet.

Before we did this, we talked about how to stay safe online and what to do if we see something that we do not like. Can you remember what you need to do?

We stop, we don't share with others, we tell an adult straight away. 
Please login to your PurpleMash account and complete this 2do. It's really important that we know how to stay safe online, especially now that we are on it everyday. 


At school, you can tell an adult in your class if you see something you do not like. But who can you tell at home?

I would like you to think about one adult you can ask for help at home if you see something that is not right. Who would that person be?



3-d shapes

3-d shapes have three different properties.
They have vertices, faces and edges. 


Watch this BBC Bitesize video to find out more about their properties.

Sometimes, you can find 2-d shapes on the faces of 3-d shapes. 
Have a look at this 3-d shape. It's called a cube. 

What Is A Cube | Cube Shape | DK Find Out

This cube is made up of square faces. This doesn't mean that it's a 2-d shape, it's just made up of 2-d shapes.
