Tricky word you (phase 3) writing activity and Power Point

(0)
A fun Power Point to introduce the Phase 3 Tricky Word ‘you’ with reading opportunities within it and a writing task to print and complete at the end. Writing task also goes towards some PSED assessment criteria- I got some great observations from discussions of it with the children. *Children will need to have already learned tricky word ‘are’ to get the most out of this.

EYFS Home learning template for coronavirus school closure bubble Early Years

(0)
I have created this template to use to send weekly home learning home to parents/carers for if my class is closed due to Coronavirus or for when children are isolating. It is designed for Early Years classes: Nursery or Reception. The start of the document provides information for parents about what they need to do at home each week. It also outlines key skills that they should practise at home with their children such as dressing, sharing and ways to approach this. There is a suggested timetable to ensure children retain some routine. There is also a sheet advising parents on how to read effectively with their children. The actual activities section is blank, ready for you to add your own relevant daily activities. Please see my shop if you would like to download activities for a certain topic- I’ve got quite a few other resources on there.

Then the children are introduced to reading the Phase 3 tricky word ‘me’ and then have a writing activity to do. It is a fun way of introducing and practicing this word.

Snow Day challenges- differentiated maths, writing literacy, science and planning winter remote

(0)
In this resource you will find differentiated planning and resources for Reception, Nursery or Year One. They are challenges and activities to be used on a snowy day or during a winter topic. Some work best when the children are playing in the snow outside. This would be suitable for remote learning. This pack includes: Snowman writing challenges- children can draw, name, label the snowmen they have made and even make a fact file (which could be used later for story writing) Maths challenges- measuring snowmen differentiated challenges making snowballs - number challenges ( numeral recognition and addition/subtraction) Snowball target practise maths game - tally and totals Photos of sowmen for inspiration science- melting/freezing ideas and worksheet to predict and test the best way ‘free’ the toys from the ice the fastest. Activities are colour coded for differentiation. Slides should be printed and used as challenge cards- I lamiate and put them around for children/staff to access. Children can access different levels of differentiation by using the colour coding and finding their name on a coloured grid. This ensures all children are suitably challenged, even in free flow/ continuous provision. Resources and plans cover EYFS Expressive Arts and Design (EAD) , Writing (W) , Number (N), Shape, Space and Measure (SSM), Communication and Language (CL) , PSED, Physical development (PD) and Understanding the world (UTW) objectives. They meet some national curriculum areas for Year 1.
