I’ll give you a clue it

I spy with my little eye
something beginning with n…

This week we would love you to keep a vegetable diary. Each day you can draw all
the different vegetables that you have eaten. I wonder if you can eat at least
one vegetable each day.

Monday – Maths
This is an activity that can be done outside!
Draw a large circle for the middle of a flower and draw 5 petals around it. (You
could use chalk on the ground or draw on paper).
Choose a number depending on your child’s ability e.g. 5 and write it in the
middle circle.
Challenge your child to find the correct number of objects and place them in
each petal e.g. 5 stones, 5 sticks, 5 leaves etc.
Repeat with other numbers.
We would love to see your photos on Tapestry.

patch. Can you draw some pictures to remind him? Ask an adult if they can add
labels on for you.
Tuesday – Maths
Have a look at some real coins (1p, 2p, 5p, 10p). Can your child tell you anything
about the shape, colour or value of the coin. Have a look if you can spot any
numbers you know.
Have a go at doing some coin rubbings. Place the coin under a piece of paper and
use a pencil or wax crayon to colour over the top.
You could also make a collect of objects from home or the garden. Have a go at
labelling the items with a price. Can you ‘buy’ items from the shop using the
coins you have looked at?
I know some of you have enjoyed finding worms and snails in the garden. Have a
go at creating your very own snail.
You can use buttons, beads, feathers, pom
poms, stickers, fingerprints, glitter, anything
you want to but it needs to be colourful! Here
are a few ideas but you can decorate it with
something different if you want to. Put your
snails on twitter or tapestry when you have
finished!
Phonics – Wednesday
You have done so well learning new sounds.
You should now know s,a,t,p,i,n. Can you colour
the correct initial sound for these pictures.
Say the words first then try and found the
sound you hear.
Wednesday – Literacy
Today I would love you to practice printing with different fruit and vegetables.
Think about what they look and feel like. What patterns do they leave behind on
the paper?
Challenge: Can you use the printing
to create a picture? Or Add scales
to a fish.
I can’t wait to see your pictures on
tapestry.
These scales were made from celery.
These are made with
potato prints.
Wednesday – Maths
‘I’ll huff and I’ll puff and I’ll mix your numbers up!’
Write the numbers from 0 to 5 or 0 to 10 on pieces of paper and cut up.
Spread the numbers out on the carpet and blow (like the Wolf) to mix all the
numbers up.
How quickly can you put the numbers in order in a number line?
Can you count on and back along your number line?
Remember to send us your photos! Have fun!
Today on your walk I want you to have a look
out for different flowers. Can you spot these?
Bluebells Buttercups
Daffodils Daisy

Phonics - Thursday
Today we are going to play a game.
Roll a dice, count the dots and move the same
number of spaces. Say the sound you land on.
I wonder who will be first to reach the end.
Challenge: Can you think of a word that begins
with the same sound?
Thursday – Literacy
Thinking about the vegetables in the story I want you to ask people at home and
people you might speak to over the phone which one would be their favourite
vegetable.
Draw a smiley face next to the vegetable. I wonder which one will be the most
popular. Don’t forget to let us know on tapestry.
Thursday –Maths
SKITTLE CHALLENGE
Can you make your own bowling alley? Stand 10 bottles / cardboard tubes / etc
as skittles in rows.
Roll or gently throw a small ball at the skittles and see how many you knock over!
Count how many skittles are left.
This game could be played outside too with objects found in your garden!
You can change the number of skittles for your child’s ability.
We would love to see your photos and videos! Have fun!
Play a game of snakes and ladders. I wonder
who will win? Remember to roll the dice and
count the number of dots to know how many
places you can move.
Friday – Phonics
Play a game of I spy with an adult.
Friday – Literacy
Have a look at these pictures below and cut them up. Can you sort them into the
correct place on the next page? Which ones are fruit and which ones are
vegetables?
What is your favourite fruit?
Friday – Maths
Provide your child with two plates / pans / plant pots / bags. If you have any
potatoes that your child could use that would be great but you could use other
objects to represent potatoes (balls, counters, stones, Play Doh etc (or other
vegetables!}
Ask your child to count out 4 potatoes. Explain that Oliver and his Grandpa want
to share the potatoes equally. Can they share the potatoes between the two
plates so each plate has the same amount? Talk about what your child has done –
they shared 4 potatoes equally between two plates so each plate had 2 potatoes
each.
Repeat by sharing other amounts (6 potatoes, 8 potatoes, 2 potatoes, 10
potatoes).
You could extend this activity by exploring what happens when you try to share
an ‘odd amount,’ (e.g. 3, 5, 7) to show that there would be one potato left over!
Flap a fish game.

Cut out a fish and decorate it. You can do this any way you like. You could paint it
or colour it.
Roll newspaper into baton shapes. You will use this to move your fish along the
floor.
Place your fish on the starting line and fan your fish to make it move. You can’t
push or touch your fish! I wonder who will get it across the line first.
