Maths- this is the maths scheme they will be using in Year 1. We will be using the
resources on the home learning section for Early
Years. https://whiterosemaths.com/homelearning/early-years/
Click on the section: Summer Term - Week 9 (w/c 22nd
June).The maths lessons this week are all based on the book Zog
by Julia Donaldson: If you have this book then you can
give it a read before the lesson. If you don’t have a
copy of this book, then here is a link to it on YouTube:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9_LmS3q4E6k
There is also a scanned copy of the book on the school
website to read.

Addition skillsToday, children will be
counting how many stars Zog has and adding more. Just like last week, children can use a tens frame to help them. If
you would like to use objects to help children with their
counting (e.g. counters, lego etc.), you can also draw a
tens frame on a piece of paper to place the objects on.
Children will also be making their own rosette award for themselves or for somebody else. Make sure to send us pictures of the rosettes you make and explain what you
could have got it for!
Additional activities to try:

Subtraction skills. Children will be using tens
frames to support their subtraction today. If using
objects on a tens frame, you can show subtraction by
taking away the objects as the dragons fly away. If
printing the tens frame/drawing dots in a tens
frame, you can cross out a dot as the dragon flies away.
Additional activities to try:

Today, children need to think of different rules that dragons must follow. Children will also be creating their own dragon dance! Can they teach this
dance to others?
Additional activities to try:
There are lots of differences between dragon school and
the school that we go to. Dragons learn how to fly, how to roar, breathe fire and more. Do we learn these in school?
What kind of things do we learn?
Can children pick a different creature or animal and think about what things they might
learn about in school (e.g. unicorns, dinosaurs, elephants
etc.) Children can make a poster, write a story or create
a timetable explaining the different lessons that their creatures will do at school.
Make sure to send us a picture by email of what you
create!
