Today we are recapping the 'ir' sound in our phonics session. Please make sure you are recapping all sounds before daily so you are fluent with your sounds!

 

Enquiry

Today we are thinking about properties of materials more. We found a number of you struggled with the meaning of the words so today we are consolidating our understanding before we move on in our enquiry 'What is Traction Man's playground made of?' 

Complete the activity on this link: https://central.espresso.co.uk/espresso/primary_uk/subject/module/activity/item1137912/grade1/module1128907/index.html

Activity One: Complete this sheet matching definitions of properties to their meanings, choose either matching definitions or pictures to show your understanding. 

Activity Two: Properties charades! This is a fun game and we will share your pictures with children in school and visa versa. Act out of one the properties vocabulary words and get your parents to guess the word you are acting out. Here is a list of words to choose from: stretchy, bendy, transparent, opaque, absorbent, waterproof, rough, smooth, shiny, heavy, light

Activity Three: Today we are using the properties vocabulary we have learnt to describe materials. Complete this sheet here.
