Home learning for Year 1 - Sparrows
Week Beginning 6th July
Dear Sparrows Parents and Children,
At the bottom of the page I have included a 6 week Yoga course for the children to complete- enjoy!
As always, please complete a lesson of Maths and English each day and do the ‘frequently’ section a few times a week. Then you can do the Learning Journey and Science lesson when the mood is right across the week. I have also included an 'Other Learning' section, in case you wanted anything extra!
I hope you are all well, if you need to contact me for help/ a chat/ any form of support please feel free to do so via email- cp@harlandsprimary.org
Stay safe,
Miss Pooley.

English
Maths
This week we will be focusing on doubling and halving. I am aware we have touched on this already but I felt it would be useful to go over it again (in a different way). Please follow the PowerPoint provided. We will be completing the assessments separately in afternoon lessons, you can choose to do this if you want but please don't feel you have to.
Science
This week in Science we will be continuing to look at trees. We will be matching leaves to trees.
If you have time, please collect the following leaves for the starter activity; Oak, Horse Chestnut, Silver Birch, Holly and Beech (this could be made into a 'leaf hunt' type of activity. If you don't have time then you can use the printed pictures provided.
Starter: Print out pictures of trees. You should have a collection of real leaves/ printed pictures of leaves. Can you match the right leaf to the right tree? Please allow the children to do this without help (it doesn't matter if they get it wrong!).
Recap: Using the PowerPoint from last week, recap any trees/ leaves you didn't know and correct your sorting (from starter).
Lesson: Complete the sheet by cutting out and matching the leaf to the correct tree.
Learning Journey
For our Learning Journey this week we will be looking at a famous artist called 'Andy Warhol'. Next week we will be making our own superhero pop-art based on his work. However, this week we will be studying the art work and saying what we like/ could improve about it.
