Here are your challenges for today. We hope you enjoy them, and try your best!

Wake Up, Shake Up!
Can you write your name?
It is important to practise writing your name each day.
See if you can think of a different way to do it each day.
You could use chalk, gel pens, crayons, felt tips, biros and more…
If you are confident writing your first name, perhaps you could practise your middle name and last name
too!
Try to make sure you start each letter in the right place!
You could even make it fun and messy and write in shaving foam, flour, mud or paint!!

R/1 Maths- Money!
Maths- Reception
Today we are going to see how much we can buy with one coin!
We can also use our knowledge of 'ways to make' numbers to help us.
You have 5p. Talk together- what could you buy from our shop?
How many different combinations can you find? Could you buy more than one of the same toy?
3p
Remember a 5p coin is the
same as five 1ps.
5p 2p 1p
Maths- Reception/ Year 1
Today we are going to see how much we can buy with one coin!
You have 10p.
What could you buy from our Pokemon shop?8p
How many different combinations can you find? Could you buy more than one of the same Pokemon? Year 1- if you haven't spent the total value of your coin, the shopkeeper will give
you the extra money back.
This is your change. You can find out more about giving change on the next page.
5p 2p 9p 4p 6p
Maths-Year 1 – Giving Change
Jigglypuff costs 8p. We paid with a 10p coin, as there isn't an 8p coin!
The shopkeeper needs to know the difference between 8p and 10p. This is how much change we need.
We can solve this two ways... How much change would we get?
8p
We can take 8away from 10, and see what is left.
Or we can count up from 8 to 10, and see how many
'jumps' we add.
Can you work out how much change you would get for one of the Pokemon on the previous page?
Maths-Year 1 Extra Challenge
You have 20p or 50p.
What could you buy from our bookshop? Can you work out how much change you would get?10p 15p 12p 8p

Play this game on ICT Games to practise paying for items in different ways.
Pay For It (ictgames.com)

Scan the item with the scanner, then drag the coins into the till. (You can use the
same type of coin more than once!)
For extra challenge, play the version with 'giving change'.

We have also been learning how the letter 'c' can make the 's' sound in
some words. The letter 'c' is in the 's' family, because these letters or groups of letters all make the same sound - 's'

Can you write the words to match these pictures? They all need the 'g' letter to make the /j/ sound, or the 'c' letter to make the 's' sound.
c
We can spell the /s/
sound using letter 'c'

R/1 Literacy
Today we are going to continue to explore the difference between fiction and non-fiction
books.
Earlier in the week, Miss Ellis read 'There's a Tiger in the Garden.' This is a fiction book, because it
is a made-up story.
Non-fiction books contain facts and information, like the one on the right. They often have photos
or diagrams.

Suddenly, a shark rose up out of the sea!
The shark was very long.
