Nursery Home Learning Planner WC: 30 th March 2020 Maths Counting This week we would like you to practise counting – both forwards and backwards- from 1 to 10 (and beyond if you can). Here’s a link to some counting rhymes: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7D4K9oi7oBM Practise counting groups of objects within 3/5/10 or up to 20 depending on the needs of your child. These can be randomly arranged, close together and chose a range of different sized objects. Ask your child to give you a certain number of objects from a larger group, e.g. ‘Please give me 4 blocks’ or ‘Set the table for 5 people.’ Encourage them to say out loud each number as they add them to the group. For a bigger challenge practise separating out a group of objects into 2 sets. For example, 5 toys could be arranged in different quantities on two plates (3 and 2, 1 and 4 etc). English The Three Little Pigs Can you listen to the story of The Three Little Pigs: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QLR2pLUsl-Y Ask your child what happened in the story and ask them questions about it. Activities: Make some puppets to use when acting out the story. Create a mask for one of the characters. Use a cereal box or building blocks to make a house for one of your toys to live in. Phonics You could go on a listening walk around your house – what can your child hear? Can they describe the sounds, e.g. ticking, tweeting, stamping? If your child is beginning to notice and recognise letter sounds, they could watch and sing the S song: https://www.youtube.com/watch? v=uSVzk2pqWB4 Go on a sound hunt. Can you find anything in your house which starts with the s sound?
