Hello Squirrels.

I hope you all had a good weekend.

Well done to all of you who have made it on to google classrooms. I will be posting on the blog and google classrooms this week.

Sound of the Week.

The sound of the week is ar - start the car. Practice reading these words using the ar sound.

car, bar, park, smart, part, hard, start, star, sharp.

Word of the Week.

This weeks word is ‘was’. Can you practice writing ‘was’? How many times can you spell it without looking? You could use sand, chalk, mud, shaving foam, gel pens.

English

This week we are going to be looking at the Queen.

Did you know that the Queen has ruled for longer than any other Queen or King in British history?

She is now 94 years old. She was crowned on June 2nd, 1953, in Westminster Abbey.

I have a question which I wonder if you could help me answer - What does the Queen do? See if you can find out what the Queen does and write a few sentences. Would you like to be King or Queen?

Maths

This week we are going to be looking at money.

Today I would like to focus on coins and knowing how much they are worth. First we need to know what they look like. See if you can find any coins at home. What colour are they? Can you see any numbers on them? Which one is the biggest/smallest?

Then have a go at matching the coins to the amount.

Fact of the Day.

The Queen is the only person in the UK allowed to drive without a licence.
