Phonics

Each day there will be a new phonics sound (Set 3).

Read the sound and the words containing the sound (recap Set 2 sounds and previous Set 3 sounds as you go along).

Practise spelling the words containing the new sound. Practise spelling some words from Set 2 and previous Set 3 sounds. 

Pick 3 common exception words from this list each day to practise spelling - https://cdn.oxfordowl.co.uk/2019/08/29/13/48/38/98b01b1e-5cd2-47f6-a592-f97cebd0b777/CommonExceptionWords_Y1.pdf

English

A suffix is letters that can be added to the end of a root word to change its meaning. The suffix ‘-est’ can be added to the end of adjectives (describing words) to compare three or more things. E.g. cold. Thursday was the coldest day of the week.

Add ‘-est’ to the end of these words and put them in a sentence.

Maths

Have a go at drawing arrays to represent the multiplication facts. Copy the multiplication fact and write the answer (challenge: count in 2s/5s/10s to find the answer).

An example has been done for you. Remember, all the columns and rows need to be equal!

Computing

Following on from science yesterday - go in to your garden/go for a walk and practise taking pictures of the different trees you can see. Are they deciduous or evergreen?
