Here are today's busy work activities.

Now, in your busy work books, practice writing the following letters:
Remember to use the rhymes to help you.
p - down the pirates plait and around his face.
r - down the robots back and curl over his arm.

x - down the arm and leg, repeat the other side.

Parents: Ask your child to write the following words in their busy work books.
Boys and girls, remember to use your 'Fred Fingers' to help you.

Words to write: pot, zap, tip, nap, shop.
As a challenge, your child could write a simple sentence: a big ship.

Now, let's play 'Odd and Bob' .
This is a new game. The green alien 'Odd' loves silly alien words. The red alien 'Bob loves real words.
Fred talk, read the word on the UFO and give it to the correct alien to make them happy.

Maths Time
Today, we are learning about addition. Remember, the symbol '+' means add.
When we see it, we know to find out how many there are altogether. 

To find the answer to the sums you could find some objects around your house to help you, like marbles. Or, in your busy work books you could draw spots like this:

Can you find the answer to these sums by drawing the spots?

6 + 5 =

13 + 4 =

17 + 3 =

Want a challenge? Try and find the answers to these by putting the biggest number in your head and the smallest number onto your fingers. Then count on to find the answer. 

8 + 5 =

10 + 7 =

Story Time

Today's story is called 'Starry-eyed Stan.' All the sea creatures agree that Stan is the most talented singing starfish in the bay. But when danger strikes, will Stan's talent save the day? 

We hope you have a great day!

Don't forget to email us if you have any questions, or if you just want to let us know you are safe and well.
