4th March - Thursday - World Book Day
Good morning Reception. Welcome to Thursday
Today is World Book Day - Obviously a slightly different day from what we would like to do today. If you would like to dress up at home I would love to see your outfits. Do you have a favourite book character? Maybe an animal from Rumble in the Jungle?
You could make a mask or headdress!
Or you could carry out Mr English's challenge to make a potato as a book character. I have added some resources for making Supertato below. I have also added some PDF's for you below - to make bookmarks, a book scavenger hunt and an activity book for you to fill in - Maybe a keepsake for your 'Lock-down World Book Day'. There are some lovely resources on the World Book Day webpage, if you would like to check them out later.

Session 2 - Zoom Session
Communication Language and Literacy
We are going to have another look at Rumble in the Jungle today - yesterday you listened to the descriptions and then created an animal and did a little bit of writing. I would like you to choose a second animal today but to start with the writing.
Your task today: can you choose an animal, think of a sentence that you want to say about the animal. Then I would like you to make your animal. You could create your animal from some of your toys, Lego, building blocks, beads etc. could you send me a picture of what you have created.

We are going to have a look at some number line problems to start us off.
Today we are going to play a game about making 10. In the session we are going to look at 2 numbers that make 10. Using a 10 frame, number cards and dice.
Your task today – place numeral cards 1-10 on the floor or around the room. You need to turn one over at a time. How many counters would you need to fill the 10 frame. If I had this 10 frame it shows 3 counters on the 10 frame – which number do I need to go and find to fill the 10 frame?
Have fun!
