English

• Tricky words - we, are
• Dictation - 'ag' words

Adjectives are describing words. They describe the animal e.g.

• short/ tall
• big/ small
• spotty
• stripey
• funny
• brown (any colour)
• smelly
• ugly/ pretty
• fast/ slow

Have a look below. Can you think of an adjective that would describe each of these animals. Try and think of a different adjective to describe each one.

• You can download the worksheet below and write an adjective under each one (I know there is not a lot of space apologies)
• You could write out the numbers 1-8 and write down the adjective for that animal on your whiteboard. As something extra you could try and draw some of the animals.
• If you are finding this too easy or you are just looking for a challenge today try and use the new adjective in a sentence for 1 or all the animals e.g.
  
  • The giraffe is tall. 
    
  • The elephant is heavy.
  • The lion is scary.
• You can practice saying these out loud or write them out.

Today we have another maths game. It's an adding game up to 5.
Have a listen below to the video from Ms Maguire showing us how to play.

​You will need:

Counters:
You can use lego, small toys, coins

Game Cards:
Write your number sentences on the back of some paper or card. 

Gameboard

If you like...
- You could make the game more difficult by adding in a few bigger numbers. (Don't forget to add in extra number sentences too)
- You could add one extra number on the game board (so it can't be a draw)
- You could use dice dots instead of numbers.

​
