Little Red Riding Hood

Hi Year 1,

Do you remember reading the story of Little Red Riding Hood? 

Your Literacy task today is on PurpleMash.

Use your phonics to write speech bubbles for the characters in the story. You can click on the speaker to hear Miss Ali giving you instructions on what to do.

If you cannot access PurpleMash, here is what the task looks like. Have a go at creating your own speech bubbles:

Subtraction

This week we are going to be looking at subtraction. When we subtract a number, we take it away from another number.

Remember: when we are subtracting, our number gets smaller.

Now have a go at completing these questions:

Butterfly feeding for Summer

In the Autumn term, we looked at how the seasons change. We found out that during the Winter, it gets dark early and during the Summer, the daylight is longer.

Do you remember making our own bird feeders to help the birds get enough food in the Winter?
 

The Summer season is coming up, which means we will be seeing more butterflies around. Why not try making your own butterfly feeder and record how many different types of butterflies you notice?

Top Tip: If you don't have wood and metal screws, you could use cardboard and paperclips to make hooks instead.

Seaside picnic

Can you remember what this is called and what it is used for?

It's a bathing hut! In the Victorian times, people would use these huts to change into bathing suits that they had rented (borrowed for some money).

The clothes people wore to the seaside was also different. Victorians would wear clothes that would cover their bodies and called their costumes 'bathing gowns'.

Did you know...Victorian men and women would swim in separate parts of the beach.

Women would wear bathing gowns that would go all the way down to their knees or ankle. Sometimes, they would even have weights put into the hem to stop it from rising in the water!

Men would wear a one-piece swimming costume, with a shirt and shorts attached together.

What do we wear to the seaside now? Is it the same or different as the Victorian times?

Draw a costume from a person going to the beach now and a costume for a Victorian person.

I want my hat back

Today's story is called I want my hat back.

Why does the rabbit give so many answers to the bear's question about his missing hat?

Write a sequel to the book. What happens to Bear next?
