      Primary One - Friday 23rd April 2020

      Published on April 23, 2020

      Happy Friday Everyone!

      Happy Friday Quotes And Images | SayingImages.com
      The end of another busy week. I hope you have enjoyed carrying out the activities that I have posted and I am looking forward to seeing all your work, when we eventually get back to school. A few activities for you to try today.
      Activity 1 – Phonics   Kids Spelling Fun - teaches 500 English words on the Mac App Store   new sound oa

      L.I. to understand that 2 letters can make 1 sound
      S.C. I can blend this sound with other sounds to read words
      S.C. I can spell words with this sound
      S.C. I can create my own oa words
      Today’s sound comes from Inky’s Vowel House. You will find the oa sound on the right hand side, second window down. In this window you will see a picture of Joe Comb who groans “oh no the light is broken!” (the light switch in the window below is not working)

      The oa sound can usually be found in the middle of words. Can you blend these sounds together to make words?

      s-ao-p      b-oa-t     c-oa-t    r-oa-d   g-oa-t     g-oa-l     l-oa-f      s-oa-k     f-oa-m

      Can you think of any more? Can you make a game to help you remember how to spell them? You could play pairs or draw pictures of each oa word  and practice writing the word to match the picture. Remember you can record your work in your jotter.

      Activity 2 – Maths Money

      L.I. to recognise and use a range of coins

      S.C. I can apply my addition skills to add 2 coins together

      S.C. I can give change from 10p

      Free Clipart Money Coins Clipart
      As a follow on from yesterdays task (creating your own shop at home) can you ask someone to buy 2 items from your shop, add them together and give them change from 10p? For example, a tin of beans may cost 2p and a packet of pasta 5p so altogether they cost 7p. How much change would your customer get from 10p? Have fun adding up and subtracting from 10p.
      Activity 3- Art

      L.I to use a range of media creatively
      S.C. I can use paint and cardboard to create a 3D affect
      Have a go at painting this beautiful daffodil.
      Firstly take some yellow paint and put your hands in it.
      Then use your hand prints to make the petals (see below).
      Next ask a grown up to help you cut a piece from an egg carton, paint it yellow and stick it in the middle.
      Lastly use green paint/pen/chalk to make the stalk. You could make a whole bunch.  Alternatively you could draw one and colour it in.

      I hope you all have a great weekend, stay safe and I will post more activities on Monday.
