Good morning to you all,
Welcome back to another week of learning from home! We are missing you all and hope that we get to see you all again soon. We want to say a big thank you and well done for all your efforts whilst learning from home both from all the wonderful Galileo children and parents! You are amazing us by the fantastic work you are doing and the fun you are having doing other activities. Keep up the great work and continue sharing with us.
The plan for today:
Phonics and reading

Read the Read Write Inc book called ‘Up in the air' . This ebook can be found by logging into the Oxfordowl website (www.oxfordowl.co.uk). You will find the books by either searching by the book title or by selecting the 5-6 years age range. Remember to practise the sounds and read the Green and Red words before reading the story. The first read of the story may involve lots of decoding the words by sounding out. Mrs Davies and I thought that this book was perfect as we continue to do work about hot air balloons this week!

Spellings
It's Monday, which means its time to have a little spelling test and start learning some new spellings! Please test your child on last weeks' spellings and set them a new set of spellings for this week. Remember to carry on practising any spellings your child struggled with previously. If you want your child to have an extra challenge use the words from the spelling lists in sentences.
Maths
Today's maths lesson is focusing on making doubles. Use the PowerPoint presentation lesson 4 to learn about doubles. Today's tasks are intended to be more practical but the sheets to be used are attached if you prefer to print them out.
If you don't have access to a printer then there are a few options of how to complete this task. Here are a few suggestions:
There is also an activity called 'Cover the doubles' which you can download.
History
In today's History lesson you are going to find out about the invention of trains and think about how they have changed over time. Use the slides to learn about trains and then complete the 2C worksheet. You should find the worksheet in your home learning pack and some picture cards to help you with discussion. I wonder what new facts you will learn today!
