Welcome to another maths filled week in Phase One.
This week pupils in Reception will be exploring half or an amount and then finding it’s double. Year 1 will be investigating and comparing mass and lengths of objects, this week we will be focusing on measuring using non-standards measurements.
Fetch an adult to help you complete this activity next activity and do not forget to take some photos and upload onto Tapestry.
Treasure hunt
Ask your child to collect piles of different items from around the house, such as building blocks, teddies, shoes, or pencils. They need to collect more than one of each item.
Put the items in a pile and then challenge the child to share each pile equally between the two of you. Some piles of objects will be shared out in whole numbers, but you might have some interesting conversations about why this isn’t true for all numbers of things.
Do they notice anything about the numbers which end up with you having a different number of items each?
Once the items are shared between you, ask them to count each item to make sure that you have half each.
See if your child can explain how many items you had altogether and then how many you now have once shared equally ‘half of 6 is equal to 3. Double 3 is equal to 6.’ Can you try larger numbers? Can you half 9 objects equally, does this work?
Year 1 pupils will be exploring mass, starting with comparing lighter objects against heavier objects. Pupils will discuss how we can measure and test this out, along with finding out ‘if objects, are bigger are they always heavier than objects which are smaller.’ Maybe you can test this out at home – find some items which are big and some that are small and see which items are the heaviest or lightest using weighing scales.
Now, take a look at Titch and Ted making a chocolate cake. What a mess! What did Ted do wrong? How can Ted make the cake correctly? What does he need to follow and do?
During the Easter holidays maybe you could make a cake at home together, following a recipe, checking the measurements and using scales to weigh out the ingredients, don’t forget the best part of baking -eating it all up when its ready!
Last week’s results were another triumph for Phase 3 Earth. Come on Water!
can water take the next victory?
Join this week’s Times Tables Rock Stars battle between Phase 3 Water and Earth – take part and see if you can help your team win this week, whilst keeping your times tables knowledge and skills up-to-date.
This week, we will concentrate our learning on perfecting our production of ‘Around the World in A Thousand Years’, so that we are word and action ready for Tuesday 29th March.
We will also refresh our knowledge of the Christian period of Lent through our Guided Reading lessons, and remind ourselves of word classes and grammar rules in Literacy.
In maths, we will spend time re-familiarising ourselves with arithmetic and reasoning problems around the four key operators: addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.
You can also access the overview for the whole of the spring term by clicking here.
Don’t forget TO CONTINUE TO PRACTISE YOUR LINES FOR THE PERFORMANCE.
Reception pupils have been exploring the nursery rhyme ‘Old Mother Hubbard’ – we have been listening and singing along to it along with investigating counting objects in the image. As always we have been speaking in full sentences and using our careful counting skills to correctly count how many items there are altogether ‘In the picture I can see 3 yellow, square plates on the shelves.’ Look at the picture together and see what sentences you can come up with.
Encourage your child to say ‘In the picture I can see …’
Can you sing along to the song? Can you recall what happens in the nursery rhyme?
Year One pupils have been working hard to understand quarters, halves, anti-clockwise, clockwise, quarter and half turns along with three quarter turns.
Watch the video below, looking out for the questions near the end and try to answer them, you can pause the clip to stop and check your child’s understanding together.
