Today in our maths learning we are continuing to add more and take away using ‘first, then and now’ mathematical stories. Please refer to yesterday’s maths blog if you missed it!
We use the ‘first, then and now’ structure to create mathematical stories in contexts children can relate to. Placing a calculation into addition stories can help children to see the calculation in a meaningful context. Children are able to visualise the addition calculation as they tell the addition story.
Take a look at all of these superstars below who completed their ‘First, then, and now’ addition stories yesterday! Well done J
Today we are going to be looking at mathematical stories to help us subtract/take-away. Presenting subtraction in this way can help young children to visualise the calculation and understand that some are being taken away.
Take a look at the first question below!
Count the frogs in the ‘first’ column… how many are there altogether? Write the answer in the box below (5).
Then count the frog that has jumped from the log in the ‘then’ column… write this in the box below (1.)
In the ‘now’ box, you should be able to count how many frogs are left. Write this underneath (4.)
Well done! The answer to this 'first, then and now' question is 5 – 1 = 4!
I have attached some more questions in the link below… enjoy! How many can you work out? J

Good Morning Reception!!
This week we have listened to a new story called ‘The Snail and the Whale.’ If you haven’t listened to it look on Monday’s blog.
Today I want you to look at the two main characters in the story: the snail and the whale. What words would you use to describe them? Tell your grown up your ideas…Remember to talk in full sentences about the characters.
For example,
The snail has a hard shell on his back.
The whale has a huge body that is white and dark blue.
Your challenge today is to cut up the words on the sheet and try to make a sentence from the story. If you don’t have a printer write the words on scraps of paper. When you have made the sentence stick it on a piece a paper and draw a picture about the sentence. This will show that you have understood what you have read!
There are two sentences that you must work out. Grown ups the answers are on the third sheet for you to check.

Good Morning Reception!!
Let’s start today’s phonic activity by revising the sounds you have learnt so far using the flashcard game below:
https://new.phonicsplay.co.uk/resources/phase/2/flashcards-time-challenge
Pick individual phonemes section and click all the sounds that we have learnt so far from Phase 2 and 3.
Today we are going to learn a new sound but it’s a little bit confusing because it looks the same as the one from Monday!!! It’s called the short ‘oo’ sound. Think of the word foot when you are saying the short ‘oo’ sound. Look at the words on the picture, can you read them to your grown up…?
Watch today’s video at the bottom of the blog where I am explaining all about the short ‘oo’ sound.
Today’s practise and apply activities are:
Can you label the pictures with the short ‘oo’ words? Pick two pictures and write some sentences using each word.
Can you choose the correct word to go in each sentence?
Play the roll and read game. If you don’t have a dice use a virtual one by clicking the link below:

Bees and Pollination Experiment
Date: 12th May 2020 @ 8:49am
Good Morning Reception!
Today we are going to be taking part in a science experiment! How fun!
You will need:
Small paper bags
Cheesy puff crisps
Bee Finger Puppet (see link)
Flower Cut-outs (see link)
Method:
Explain to children that this is an experiment to show how a bee helps with the pollination of flowers.
As a bee moves from one flower to another it moves the pollen between them.
Make a flower by putting a picture on the front of a paper bag.
Put the cheesy puffs inside the bag.
Give children a bee finger puppet and let them fly to a flower and grab some cheesy puffs. Explain that they can eat the cheesy puffs, but not lick or wipe the crumbs off their finger!
After they have had chance to eat a few crisps and get lots of crumbs on their fingers, let them fly to another flower and land on it.
What has happened to the crumbs from their fingers?
Some of the ‘pollen’ has been left behind on another flower – they have successfully pollinated a flower, which will then help it to make new seeds!
We hope that you have fun taking part in this experiment! :)

Are you feeling ready for your maths learning this morning? Let’s begin by listening to our maths songs below and having a go at today’s fluent-in-five questions!

Fantastic!
Today in our maths learning we are going to continue focusing on counting on and adding more! Please refer to yesterday’s blog if you did not see it.
First let’s remind ourselves of yesterday’s starter game, ‘I count, you count’
This is a game which can be used to practise counting on from different starting points. Adults begin by counting as you point to yourselves. When you point to the children they continue the count. This is great for creative rhythmic patterns:
1, 2, 3, 4, 5,6, 7,8
1,2,3 4,5,6 7,8,9
3,4,5,6 7,8,9,10
Today we are going to be using the ‘first, then and now’ structure. This can be used to create mathematical stories in contexts children can relate to. Placing a calculation into addition stories can help children to see the calculation in a meaningful context. Children are able to visualise the addition calculation as they tell the addition story.
At first, the children need to re-count all of the items to see how many they have altogether. E.g, 1, 2, 3, 4….5, 6,7. When they are ready, encourage children to count on, e.g 4, 5, 6, 7. Playing games like ‘I count, you count’ will support this step.
See below an example of a first, then, now structure:
Below I have attached a video to a read-along story of ‘Mr Gumpy’s Outing’ by John Burningham. It tells a tale of Mr Gumpy, who decides to take a trip along the river in his boat. But the children, the rabbit, the cat and other friends begin to join him!
Once you have read this story with children, ask them to build a boat and create their own first, then, now stories as different groups of characters climb aboard. Encourage children to count how many to altogether as more children join them!
If you would like to complete extra 'counting on' learning, I have also attached a link to ‘first, then and now' addition stories below!

Yesterday you listened to the story ‘The Snail and the Whale.’ If you haven’t managed to listen to the story use this link:
https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/m000cslw/the-snail-and-the-whale
The snail used his sticky, silvery trail to write messages on a rock and the blackboard in the school. Here are his messages...
Today I want you to imagine if you were the snail, what message would you write? It could be something that the snail saw on his travels with the whale or how he might be feeling. You might even try to write it like a snail's trail in fancy shaped letters...Here is my message:

Good morning everyone,
I hope everyone has had a lovely weekend! I spent a lot of time in the sun, in fact possibly a bit too much time! I also had some delicious food and lovely video chats with some of my friends.
Thanks again for all your wellebing challenge e-mails. It really cheers me up whenever I get one and see what you've all been up to!
Today's wellbeing challenge is actually Miss Bryce's idea so thanks Miss Bryce! It's a creative one and is to design your own superhero.
Who would they be?
What would they do?
What would they wear?
Have a think about what is important to you and then either draw, make or write about your superhero.
See the attached picture file for all the details and how it relates to Banksy.
Remember to e-mail EALhomelearning@ravensbury.manchester.sch.uk to show me pictures of your superheroes!

Good Morning Reception!
I hope you have had a lovely Bank Holiday weekend! How did you spend it? Did you enjoy the very warm weather we had on Friday and Saturday?
Let’s get ready for our maths learning by listening to the songs below and having a go at today’s fluent-in-five questions!

Well done! How quickly could you work them out today?
Today in our maths learning we are going to be focusing on counting on and adding more!
Let’s begin with a warm up activity with adults at home…
‘I count, you count’
This is a game which can be used to practise counting on from different starting points. Adults begin by counting as you point to yourselves. When you point to the children they continue the count. This is great for creative rhythmic patterns:
1, 2, 3, 4, 5,6, 7,8
1,2,3 4,5,6 7,8,9
3,4,5,6 7,8,9,10
Take a look at the video below, it’s a read-along story to the book, ‘Mouse Count’ by Ellen Stoll Walsh. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uNH6i7239FI
It is a story all about a greedy snake, he is very hungry to eat some little mice for his dinner! This story helps children to understand the concept of counting forwards and backwards. It introduces the skill of counting on from a new number, rather than starting at one each time.
You can extend this learning at home through the following activities:
Mouse Count: Recreate the ‘Mouse Count’ story by using different resources as characters or even drawing ten mice and a snake! Retell the story by practising adding on from different numbers each time!
Counting on using fingers: Ask children to show you 5 fingers… now 2 more. How many fingers are there all together? Did you know there are 7? Did you count them all? Encourage children to acknowledge having five fingers on one hand, and counting on 6, 7.
Construction counting: The children take turns to roll a 1-3 dice and collect 1,2 or 3 cubes to add to their tower. If they are ready, encourage them to count on as they add their cubes each time. How high can they build their towers until they fall?

Good Morning Reception!!
This week we have a new story all about the friendship of a Snail and a Whale. Listen to the story by using the link below:
https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/m000cslw/the-snail-and-the-whale
Start by playing the game ‘one word.’ Take turns with your grown up to say one word or name of a object that you can remember from the story ‘The Snail and the Whale.’ How many things can you remember from the story…?
The story is by the author Julia Donaldson. In her stories she uses a lot of rhyming words which makes the story more interesting. Remember rhyming words are two words or more that sound the same.
For example, mat, cat, rat and hat.
Can you read the words from the story and find the two words that rhyme? Use the sheet attached on the blog to see the words.
Extra challenge – Pick two of the rhyming words and show them in a creative way. For example, you could fold a piece of paper in half and draw a picture on each side of the rhyming words.

Good Morning Reception!!
Hope you had a lovely Bank Holiday weekend!
Let’s start today’s phonic activity by revising the sounds ai, ee, igh and oa. Open the PowerPoint on this blog and sort the pictures that have the focus sound on each page.
Today we are going to learn a new sound ‘oo.’ It is sometimes described as the long ‘oo’ sound. Think of the word ‘moon’ when thinking about the long ‘oo’ sound. It is as if we are stretching the ‘oo’ like in the word’s below:
Watch the video at the bottom of the blog all about the long ‘oo’ sound.
Today’s practise and apply activities are:
Can you read the words? Play quick write by asking your grown up to say a word and you write it on a piece of paper.
How many words can you think of with the long ‘oo’ sound in one minute…?
Can you label the words with the long ‘oo’ sound? Pick three words and write them in sentences.

I can't believe it's that time of the week again to celebrate our amazing children (and parents/carers) who are doing some fantastic home learning.
We are amazed at all your hardwork and receiving your emails puts a huge smile on our faces!!!
Why not dance along to our celebration song from our Friday assembly...??
Date: 7th May 2020 @ 4:06pm
On Friday it is going to be a Bank Holiday celebrating VE Day.
VE Day is short for Victory in Europe Day when different countries around Europe celebrated winning the second world war in 1945. This was celebrated with street parties and lots of celebrations. However, this year VE celebrations around Europe and UK will look differently.
Here is a timetable of things that will be happening nationally around the country on Friday:
We have attached a PowerPoint of information about VE Day along with some activities that you may want to try over the Bank Holiday weekend.
Have a lovely Bank Holiday weekend. Let’s hope the sun keeps shining!!!

Good morning,
Yet another lovely sunny day! I'm looking forward to getting out in the sun later although I actually got a little bit sunburnt yesterday! Remeber that suncream!
Today's challenge is a creative one, I'd like you to try a bit of origami. Origami is the art of folding paper and while it can be a bit tricky, it's also quite a nice relaxing activity once you know what you're doing and you end up with something that looks amazing. You could even make a few things and use them to decorate your house!
What you need for all origami is a square of paper, either plain or patterned. If youre not sure how to turn a piece of paper into a square then have a look here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PPxi1dIWRws
Then you could take some time to decorate your paper if you like before you fold it.
Then this is a fairly simple one to get started, a butterfly https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nWjEYlMZnhE
Just follow each instruction carefully and the good thing about watching a video is that you can rewind it as much as you like! If you're not a fan of butterflies then feel free to have a look for something else on the Red Ted Art channel.
Here's my butterfly that I've just made. It's not perfect but it's the first time I've ever done it so I was quite impressed with myself!
As always I'd love to see pictures of what you've made or of any past challenges, e-mail EALhomelearning@ravensbury.manchester.sch.uk to send them or even just to let me know what kind of challenges you prefer so I can make sure I'm doing ones that people like :-)

Thanks to all the children who have sent me pictures, you've all been very busy which is great to see!

Have you enjoyed the story ‘The Very Busy Spider’ this week…? Adam did not like it very much because he hates spiders!!!
Today I am wondering what if another animal landed on the fence and started to do something else....???
What would it be…?
What would it do…?
What other small creatures could have landed in the farmyard….?
Today I want you change the main character; the spider in the story and think about the questions above… Create a new front cover using a new animal. Here are some ideas…
Bee - busy collecting pollen from flowers
Caterpillar – busy munching leaves
Butterfly – busy flying around
Worm – busy wriggling in the soil
Use the minibeast wordmat to think of other small creatures that could land on the fence.
Your new front cover can go on the sheet that I have attached on the blog or you could design it on a piece of paper.
Mrs Iqbal and Mrs Cooper's Phonic groups I want you to write a sentence describing your new animal and what it is doing. Try to make your sentences longer by adding the connectives 'and' or 'because.'

Here are your fluent-in-five questions for today!
Can you work them all out in 2 minutes? Can you beat your time from yesterday?
Today in maths, we are going to be following on from yesterday’s learning of measuring capacity! Please refer to yesterday’s blog if you did not see it! We are going to work out the capacity through using potions! Take a look at the slides below and see if you can select the correct measurement!
Will the Wizard needs your help to find the right potions!
Take a look at the potions before.. which potion is full?
Well done! The potion on the right is full J
Now, take a look below… Which potion is half full?
Which potion is empty?
Fantastic! The potion on the left is half full!
The potion in the middle is empty!
Oh no! Hocus the cat has mixed up the potions… can you help to put them in the correct order? Which potion has the least?
Well done! The potion in the middle has the least!
Now…Which one has the most?
Brilliant! The potion on the right has the most!
Can you draw a picture of the three potions below and put them in the right order, from the least to the most?
Can you help the wizard by making your own real-life potions? We would love to see them!
Have fun ordering and making potions! Don’t forget to send in your learning – your teachers love to see your work J

Let us start today’s phonic activity by getting active with a Jack Hartman song. Click the link at the bottom of the blog.
Today we are going to continue thinking about the sounds oa and igh that we have learnt this week.
How many words can you read in 20 or 30 seconds…? How many words can you read in 1 minute…? Ask a grown up to time you!!!
How many alien words can you read…? Ask a grown up to time you!!!
Today’s practise and apply activities are:
Play Word Treasure Hunt using the oa and igh words. Write or print the words and have two containers or buckets with the sounds oa and igh written on them. Hide the words around the space where you are working inside or outside. When you have found a word read it to your grown up and place it in the right box/container. Watch the video where Adam is showing you how to play the game.
Play the oa and igh woodland board game.
Play the oa and igh roll and read game.
If you do not have a dice, you can google a virtual dice or use the link below:
https://www.random.org/dice/?num=1
Which activity will you pick…? You can do 1, 2 or all 3 of them…

Good morning,
Another sunny day! 
First all of all I want to thank everyone who has sent in pictures of them doing my wellbeing challenges, it's fantastic to see and hear about how you're enjoying doing them! Have a look at the Past Challenges bit at the bottom to see some photos.
Today's challenge is another one to get you moving and do a mini workout. Sometimes it can seem a bit scary or time consuming to do a whole workout so these mini workouts are perfect if you want a quick break from doing school work or even from just watching TV if you fancy a stretch! All of these little energisers from Go Noodle are between 2 - 4 minutes long so perfect for something to wake you up in the morning or as a break from whatever you are doing.
Here are a few that I like:

Good Morning Reception!
First of all, I’d like to say a big WELL DONE to all of the children who participated in their maths learning earlier this week! Your teachers are so proud of you! J
Today let’s begin our maths learning with some familiar songs and some fluent-in-five questions! How quickly can you work them out? Can you get an adult to time you?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0TgLtF3PMOc&t=17s
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bGetqbqDVaA
Today in our maths learning, we are going to belearning about CAPACITY. We have learnt a little bit about capacity before in reception, it sounds a little bit tricky, but it’s not! Capacity is the amount something can contain (a container, box, etc!)
Take a look at a funny capacity video/song below!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E4UC_StFhAk
In reception we have taught this before by looking at different measurements of water and rice in cups. We use the vocabulary of ‘full’ ‘almost full’ ‘half full’ ‘empty’ ‘almost empty’ and ‘half empty.’
Below I have posted a list of activities linked to capacity that you can try at home:
Container activity: Provide children with different containers. Can they make their container full, nearly full, nearly empty and about half full. Can they find a container which holds more than their container? Can they find one which holds less?
Spoons activity: Provide your child with a bowl or cup and a selection of different sized spoons and ladles. Ask them to investigate how many small spoons it takes to fill their container. How many large spoons? How many ladles? Which sized spoon was the best? Why?
Outdoors activity: Provide a small box for children. Ask them to hunt for things to put inside. How many items can they fit inside? Can they find the prettiest leaf? A small pebble? What is the largest item you can fit inside your box?
Don’t forget to email in pictures of your maths learning! Enjoy! J

Let us start today’s phonic activity by revising Phase 3 tricky words. Use your Phase 2 and Phase 3 tricky words. Play quick read. How many words can you read in 20 seconds or 30 seconds? Ask your grown up to time you!!!
Today we are going to think about a new sound. This sound is a diagraph. Remember a diagraph is two letters that make one sound. Our new sound is oa…
Watch this show me video where I am going through the diagraph oa:
https://www.showme.com/sh?h=pEfEZUG
Today’s practise and apply activities are:
Can you label the pictures with the oa words? Check your answers on the second page.
Play the caterpillar spelling game with someone in your house. Cut out the strip of words on the sheet and keep them to one side. Take turns to tell each other a word on the list which must be spelt in the box under your caterpillar. Check if it is correct with the list of words, then colour a circle on your caterpillar. Who will be the first to colour all 6 circles on their caterpillar?

Good Morning Reception!!
Wow!! I can't believe it's the middle of the week already!!! This week is going really fast!!
This week we started a new story called ‘The Very Busy Spider.’ If you have not managed to listen to it yet go to Monday’s reading blog where you will find the video at the bottom of the blog.
Your grown up will ask you these questions about the story, try to remember the story and say your answers in full sentences…
Where did the spider land?
What did the spider begin to do?
What did the horse want the spider to do?
What did the cow want the spider to do?
Which animal wanted the spider to run in the meadow?
Who said ‘Maa, Maa?’
The pig said roll in the mud, but the spider ignored him. How do you think that made the pig feel?
What word would you use to describe the spider’s web?
Today I want you to make some stick puppets and retell the story ‘A Very Busy Spider’ to someone in your house. You could colour and cut out the characters from the story and put them on straws or lolly pop sticks. You could even put little strips of paper at the back of each puppet and make finger puppets.
It would be lovely if someone in your house can video your puppet show and send it in to us.
Love Mrs Iqbal

Good morning everyone,
I don't know about you but I can't wait to get out in that sun so today's challenge is one that can be done outside if you like.
Today we are focusing on having a growth mindset and doing this through yoga. Having a growth mindset means you have a positive attitude to your learning and know that just because you may find something difficult and you can't do it yet, you will get there as long as you don't give up!
Here are 5 different growth mindset yoga poses to try. Please feel free to try as many or as few positions as you like and send any pictures to EALhomelearning@ravensbury.manchester.sch.uk

To begin our maths learning.. Can you work out today’s fluent-in-five questions?
This morning we are going to be following on from yesterday’s learning of measuring weight! Please refer to yesterday’s blog if you did not see it!
Take a look at the pictures below - Can you work them out? Can you label which item is heavier and which is lighter? How do you know? Can you test this with the real life item?
Fantastic! Below I have posted a link to an ‘ordering weight challenge.’ You have to look at the items on the screen and sort them from lightest to heaviest. You can either print out the sheets and cut them out into the sorting template, or make your own scale and draw which items are the lightest and which are the heaviest!
Have fun! Please email your learning into receptionhomelearning@ravensbury.manchester.sch.uk! J
