Activity: Watch power point about caring for pets – make sure they listen carefully as you will ask questions. Look at some leaflets from the pet shop about caring for animals including reptiles. ( if you can get hold of any or look up some online)
Discuss the things we need to know if we own a pet. What they eat, what they drink, what their bed should be like, what vaccinations they need, vitamin supplements, how warm or cold they need to be, how often they should go to the vet, if they need to be cut, nails trimmed etc
Talk together about what needs to be in the leaflet- adults help by writing down some headings ideas, what do we want it to look like, what should be on the front, what words, what pictures. Handwriting practice Then practice handwriting and letter formation of the words, food, drink, home, habitat, vet- write full name first to practice this too.
Challenge Think and discuss other types of animals – do they all need the same things? Talk to your child about this – relate this to animals they have at home or they know about.
Key questions: Do we always write in the same way? Doe aa story look like a shopping list or a recipe? How do we tell the difference?

Phase 2: recap phase 2 first initial sounds on https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I0rvUHDZM3g
Phase 3: recap phase 3 reading whole words on https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jK3tNEVpSNs
Literacy LO: To be able to use lower case and upper case letters in the right place.
Recap what we did yesterday. Today you are going to begin writing your special leaflet about how to care for a pet reptile- but to do this well you need to know how to use capital letters ( upper case ) and lower case letters correctly .Show them an alphabet mat with both types of letters on it. Resources – alphabet mat upper and lower case
Listen to a song about capitals- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c3g2gqt2TpA So when you begin writing your special leaflet you need to use capitals at the beginning of your sentences and at the beginning of countries as you may write about them in your leaflet.
Activity: Look at the leaflets on other animals and think how we will help people look after their pet- look at notes from yesterday.
Write title for the leaflet after a discussion, place a picture on the front too, start the first page about what to feed your reptile, then continue on the next pages over the next few days- focusing on capital letters in the right place and full stops at the end of sentences. Resources – use colour reptile pictures from last week’s home learning Handwriting Practice writing capital and lower case letters Challenge Can they write their own sentence with all punctuation correct independently. Key questions: Where do you use capital letters? How do we know when it is the start of a sentence? Does a name, country have start with a capital letter?
Maths- Length LO: To use non-standard units to measure.
Starter -counting forwards and backwards in 10s Ask them how many 1os are there in 20, how many 10s are there in 30 and so on- how many 10s are there in the number 13,24,36
Today we are going to look at a part of maths called measure and the part of measure we are going to look at is Length. TQ- do you know what length means?
Activity: Today we are going to measure some things inside and outside the house using non-standard lengths we could use anything to measure but we can only use one thing at a time. You can choose from 4 things: a piece of lego, a pencil, a toy or a card hand print.
Model how to measure something using one of these. Have different size snakes drawn on the floor outside with chalk for them to measure- if it is raining draw some different size snakes on paper that they have to measure indoors. Have a recording sheet with blanks in that they can either write or draw a picture of what they are measuring. Resource- recording sheet Have a number mat in case they can’t remember how to write the numbers that they have measured. Resource-number mat Have some Cip visuals for them to choose from
Discuss length vocab longer, shorter, this snake is longer that that one… this snake is a little bit smaller than that one etc
Measure large objects using their chosen non- standard units measure them and record them- listen carefully to make sure pupils are using length vocab especially when comparing 2 different objects that they have measured. Model this vocab if it is not being used consistently.
Measure small objects using their chosen non- standard units measure them and record them-- listen carefully to make sure pupils are using length vocab especially when comparing 2 different objects that they have measured. Model this vocab if it is not being used consistently.
Practice writing numbers up to 20 forming the numbers correctly.
Challenge Independently record, draw on table to record their measurements
Key questions: Discuss did they pick the write non -standard unit for the purpose? How accurate was it? Look at someone else’s measurement and compare- what happened do you think? Why do you think rulers and measuring tapes were invented.

Activity: today we are going to measure things of our choice around the house and outside- we need to think what are most suitable resources to use- small things small ruler- big things bigger item to measure.
Make sure they know where to start from – not beginning of ruler but beginning of measuring scale.
Using a pre drawn table measure items and write the number and the unit in- large things
Using a pre drawn table measure items and write the number and the unit in- small things
Resources- recording table
Challenge With support can they look at mm to measure more exact- show them how this looks when you write it down.
Key questions Is this a better way of measuring? Is it more accurate? Is it could that everyone in the world using the same measuring unit? Why is this?
