George Saves The World By Lunchtime (George and Flora)

Product Information

The Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) sets the standards that all early years providers, catering for children from birth to The Prime Areas are strengthened and applied in the next four areas which are known as the Specific Areas: Level 1 – identifying verbs, differentiating between fact and fiction, alliteration, using the past tense, counting syllables, writing questions, punctuating sentences, sequencing sentences, sequencing pictures and writing captions for pictures. Over the next week try and help your grown ups sort out things for the recycling bins, can you identify paper and plastic objects? Perhaps when the Charity Shops reopen you could make a visit, taking old clothes that don't fit anymore or toys that would now be better for younger children. In school we made some Posters. I have attached mine for you to look at. Could you draw a poster showing things you could do to save the world?

I have a new activity for you this week. In school the keyworker children and I looked at a story called, 'George saves the world by lunchtime'. Grandpa helps George to become a Superhero , teaching him how to save the world by saving energy reducing the amount of electricity he uses, recycling, resuing old items and repairing broken toys. Below you will find the link to the story on Youtube. You will find out lots of things about how we can protect our precious planet.Good morning and welcome to another day of learning. Mrs Davies ison a course today and so our Phonics and Maths sessions are pre recorded. The links for these are placed within our daily guidance. UPDATE: We are aware of Mrs Davies' pre-recorded session not being able to be accessed. Please use the activities in addition guidance to continue your child's Maths Home Learning.

Level 2 – naming characters, sequencing days of the week, initial sounds, a missing words activity, labelling pictures, sorting out muddled sentences, matching halves of sentences, a yes or no activity, sequencing pictures and writing captions for pictures. Share photos of the resources in your classroom with others via social media and link to tpet.co.uk There are seven areas of learning and development that shape educational programmes in the early years. All areas are important and cross over. The first three areas engage children's curiosity and enthusiasm for learning, they help children to make healthy relationships, build an ability to learn and achieve. These three areas are called the Prime Areas and are: Watch and listen to the story on YouTube. Questions to ask : Can you remember the names of the fruits? Which animals took which fruits? Why was the title of the story Handa's Surprise? What was the surprise in the end? Can Handa tell what is happening to the fruits in her basket as she goes on her journey to meet Akeyo? What animals and insects can the children spot hiding in the pictures? Can the children remember the special words used to describe each fruit, e.g. ripe, red mango, creamy, green avocado. Don't forget to keep singing Nursery Rhymes, clapping or tapping to the beat as you sing and keep reading and sharing stories.

Wednesday 20th May Year 1 Home Learning

To keep a record of your time learning at home, perhaps you could keep a scrapbook of the things you have done, in the form of photos of activities, drawings,colouringsetc. Mum or Dad could scribe a little about your learning. It's up to you, but it would be lovely to share in Nursery when you return. Why not have a try at growing a sunflower plant beanstalk! If your grown ups can get hold of some seeds at the supermarket a pot and some compost (ordinary soil would do), plant your seed and watch it grow over the next few weeks. You could keep a diary drawing the different stages of growth. Hello children! I hope you are all keeping well and staying safe. Today would normally be the beginning of our Easter Holidays, so for the next couple of weeks the activities I am going to give you are mainly for fun and to help you to celebrate Easter with your families.
