27/04/20 Hello Year One! It was so lovely to see most of you on Friday during our Zoom sessions! Like last week we have set all the foundation subjects at the start of the week for you to select when it works best to do each activity at home. We will keep this attached to each of our JTKYG everyday. We will also include our Thoughtful theme for this week on our foundations page but will include some more ideas on how you could reflect on this theme tomorrow. Feel free to share any ideas you have about our Thoughtful theme though! We have also included some spell- ings that we would like you to practise this week. These are spellings relevant to our topic so they will come in handy. We hope you have a good day!

Activities: First you will need to gather some objects. You could use counters, coins or anything you can find! Now it’s time to split your amount in half! To do this we must split our amount into two equal groups. Remember that equal means the same so when you are halving an amount you need to carefully share them between the two groups to give you 2 halves.

Find these amounts: 4, 8, 10, 14, 16. Now complete the following: Find 8 objects and split them into two equal groups. I have 8. Half of 8 is ______. Find 10 objects and split them into two equal groups. I have 10. Half of 10 is ______. Find 12 objects and split them into two equal groups. I have 12. Half of 12 is ______. Remember to check your answers carefully! If each half has a different amount you haven’t halved your number correctly. 10 + 2 = 1 ten + 6 ones= 14 = 4 + 18 = _ ten + _ones 19 - 9 = Flashback 5 Get your maths brain in gear with these 5 starters. Take a look at the strategies you could use on page 4. Discussion: Now try some of your own! What do you notice when halving these following numbers: 3, 7 and 9. Follow this link to the White Rose website which explains halving with clear, small steps.

Hello Year One!
It was so lovely to see most of you on Friday during our Zoom sessions!
Like last week we have set all the foundation subjects at the start of the
week for you to select when it works best to do each activity at home. We will keep this attached to each of our
JTKYG everyday.
We will also include our Thoughtful
theme for this week on our foundations page but will include
some more ideas on how you could reflect on this theme tomorrow. Feel free to share any ideas you have
about our Thoughtful theme though!
We have also included some spell-
ings that we would like you to practise this week. These are spellings relevant to our topic so they will come
in handy.
We hope you have a good day!

Last week you learnt the story of The Enormous Turnip and as we mentioned then you will be moving onto adapting this story this week! You may have already had some ideas on how you are going to adapt the main events and characters in your story and you can even storyboard your adaptation like the one in the picture. If
you rather not storyboard your adaptation then you can use the sheet on the next page to adapt the beginning , middle and end. You will then spend the next three days on writing each section of your story. Remem-
ber in the beginning of the The Enormous Turnip we are introduced to our main character, the old grandpa. He plants a turnip seed. We then go into the middle where we are introduced to the problem– the turnip is too big to pull out of the ground on his own! He starts to solve the problem by calling upon a series of friends to help. The
end of the story describes how they all succeed and then celebrate with turnip soup. On the next page and/or on a storyboard we would like you to adapt The Enormous Turnip. We have also included our own adaptation plan
on the next page. So, you will be adapting the following:
1) Your 4/5 characters 2) The seed 3) what the problem is 4) how your characters help and what they may
use to help them 5) describe the solution and the celebration.
Maths
Today we will be halving an amount. Before you do the following activity ask an adult to watch the
short video with you which explains halving and sharing between two equal groups.
Activities: First you will need to gather some objects. You could use counters, coins or anything
you can find! Now it’s time to split your amount in half! To do this we must split our amount into two equal
groups. Remember that equal means the same so when you are halving an amount you need to
carefully share them between the two groups to give you 2 halves. To help us we can draw two circles and
move our objects into the circles one at a time. If you are using slightly bigger objects you could take this
activity outside and use two hoops. Find these amounts: 4, 8, 10, 14, 16.
Now complete the following:
Find 8 objects and split them into two equal groups. I have 8. Half of 8 is ______.
Find 10 objects and split them into two equal groups. I have 10. Half of 10 is ______.
Find 12 objects and split them into two equal groups. I have 12. Half of 12 is ______.
Remember to check your answers carefully! If each half has a different amount you haven’t halved your number correctly.
10 + 2 = 1 ten + 6
ones= 14 = 4 + 18 = _ ten + _ones 19 - 9 =
Flashback 5
Get your maths brain in gear with these 5 starters. Take a look at the strategies you could use on page 4.
Luckily the giant but friendly troll has all his friends to call upon. First he shouts for his wife to get a ladder, when that doesn’t reach the juicy plum the troll calls his friend, the happy goat. The troll stands on the ladder and the goat stands on his shoulders while the troll’s wife keeps the ladder steady. Unfortunately they still cannot reach the juicy plum so they shout for the muddy pig who stands on the goat’s shoulders. They all reach and reach but they still cannot get to the juicy plum! Finally they whistling bird flies over and lands upon the pig’s
head. Together they reach and reach. At last they grab the juicy plum!
