Week 1 (1st-5th June)
Please look at the 'Activity Ideas' tab for some new ideas of things to do with your children, this week.
Phonics resources are attached below.
Here is a Maths challenge that we would like you to complete by Friday 5th June and put up on Tapestry for us to see!
A Doubling Challenge.
This is a Doubling Painting activity. You will need some pieces of paper folded in half like a greetings card - these can be any size, but don’t make them too small; one colour of paint, a painting brush or cotton bud and a pen/pencil.
-
Open your piece of paper and paint a number of dots on one side of the folded line.
-
Write underneath your dots how many you have painted
-
Fold your piece of paper over, carefully, and smooth across it to press the paint dots onto the other side.
-
Open up your paper, you should now have doubled your number of dots!
-
Write down how many dots there are now.
-
Do this a few times, starting with a different number each time.
-
Let your doubles paintings dry, then hang them up somewhere that you can read the numbers, using the sentence: “Double ___ is ___”
-
You could have a go at cutting out ladybird or butterfly shapes and doing the same activity. You can double the number of dots to create a symmetrical minibeast!
Rolling 2 dice - can you roll a double? What number does that add up to altogether. Write down your findings.
