Hi First Class, 

It has been great to hear from you this week. It sounds like you have been keeping busy.  It is important that we keep our distance from other people over the next few weeks and keep washing our hands to make sure we stay healthy! I have uploaded suggested work for next week as I am sure you have finished the work I already gave you before we split up.  Try your best to work through what is on the sheet. Make sure you check below for some additional activities you can do to keep busy. 

All birthday cards sent to me will be added to our class gallery down below! 

Chat soon :)

Maths Games!

Picture
Domino Addition: Create number sentences for each domino like in the picture. Split the dominos into 2 groups. Who has more dots? How many more dots do you have than me? How many dots do we have altogether? 
Build a tower and count the dots to see how much the tower is worth.
Similar games could be played with a deck of cards
.
1 to 50: See how quick you can click the number starting at 1 all the way to 50! Click the button below to play!
Number Bonds: Challenge yourself to beat your own score or try to get half of an adults score! Click the button below to play!
Funky Mummy: We loved playing this game in school. Make sure to keep practising your                                      addition. Click the button below to play!
Addition Facts: How fast can you say your tables? Play your favourite song and see how many sums you can say before it finishes. Use your table book to help you with this. 
Place Value: Using a deck of cards turn all the cards upside down and spread over the table. Each player takes a turn to turn over 2 cards. The person who can create the highest number wins. E.g if I turn over a 3 and a 5 the highest number I can make is 53. If the other player turned over  a 7 and a 2 they win as they can make 72. 
This game can be done also to practise addition, whereby the players add together the two numbers on the cards.
Show me the Money: For this activity the child rolls the dice and counts the dots on it. They then have to show one way to make that amount using money. E.g if the dice shows 6, the child could use a 5c coin and a 1c coin, or 2c+2c+2c. If they child rolls 6 again later on in the game they must come up with another to show it. You can introduce a second dice once they get the hang of it. 
​
Lots of fun games on topmarks.co.uk, IXL or Folensonline.ie (Select teacher, use your own email address, and roll number Prim20)

Talking about COVID-19 to young children. 

In First Class, we have been learning how to write procedures. Procedures tell us how to do something. Procedures use bossy verbs to tell us what to do. They use steps or linking words to tell us what to do first. 
We watched the video on how to wash our hands correctly and then we wrote the procedure. Can you remember the steps? Try and tell someone at home the steps to follow when washing their hands! 
Why not design a poster to show your family how to wash their hands correctly? Send me a picture of your poster and I'll post it here.  It would be a great way to make sure our class stays healthy!

Some children have had their birthday while we have been off school. A big Happy Birthday to them! If you would like to make cards for them, take a picture of it and I will add them to our class gallery. We will sing them a big happy birthday when we are back :)

Friendship Week!

We were very lucky to be paired up with Ms Munroe's 5th Class for friendship week. We did lots of fun games and activities together. We did paired reading, art, P.E, card games and board games. We even wrote the recipe to make a good friend!

Pancake Tuesday!

We made pancakes in school today. We put lemon and sugar on them. They were very yummy! Most of the class had them eaten before I got around to take a picture! We wrote the procedure on how to make pancakes and we created our dream pancake! 

World Book Day!

Blast off to Space in First Class!

First class have been learning all about Space. We can name all 8 planets and know many facts about each. Each group was given a different planet and they worked together to create a fact file. We also watched many videos on the Solar System and finally we got to paint the Solar System.
