Suggested Home Learning Ideas – Monday 29th June – Who Lives Under the Sea?
Hello Reception! We hope you have had a relaxing and peaceful weekend with your families, enjoying the sunny week! We continue to miss you and we can’t wait to see you
all again soon! This week our theme for ‘Home Learning’ is related to the Seaside, Coastlines, Beaches and Rockpools! – You can focus on any particular aspect that you
wish. You may wish to create your own project Fact File based on your favourite Sea-Life Creature! Mrs Linfield has been researching different types of crabs with her
children and Mrs Pearce has been busy making pretend sandcastles and ice-creams with her children!
Please remember to check the school website every week! Your learning starts every Monday morning!
Reading and English
Please aim to read every day!
• Read a variety of books at home every day. Do you have stories which contain different sea-life creatures from under the sea? Do you have any books which
contain sharks, dolphins or whales? Can you plan, write and read back your shark story? You may also love reading about sea-life creatures in a non-fiction book.
Mrs Linfield likes the book ‘Sharing a Shell’ and Mrs Pearce loves ‘I can save the Ocean!’
• Try to explore both fiction and non-fiction books this week about ocean life and seaside creatures. What is the same and what is different? What different
features does a non-fiction text have compared to a fiction text? How do you know? Can you compare and talk about the different books above?

adult first before going online to look for reading activities. You may wish to play a phonics game or read a whole story book yourself – to your grown-up at

Sammy the Shark is very good at counting forwards and backwards from 0-10 and 0-20!

• Can you make and display your own number line for your home? You can make a small or a large one to display!
• Can you say 1 more or 1 less than any given number? e.g. 1 more than 10 = 11 / 1 less than 15 = 14. Please ask an adult to help you with different verbal
questions for 1 more and 1 less. Play this verbally like eye-spy when you go on your daily walk.

to pinch some fish and take them away for his dinner! Remember to write down your calculations clearly. Try to form all of your numbers accurately this week!

Healthy Lifestyles / Oral Health and Hygiene Sharks have large teeth! As humans we also have teeth… our teeth need to be clean and looked after too! When we are growing and developing it is important to wash our face, clean our teeth and brush our hair – even if we are staying at home! This week please can you remember to brush your teeth daily. Can you also keep a ‘Food and Drinks’ Diary to ensure you are making healthy choices throughout the day – choices that give you a balanced diet for your teeth and body! Remember to ask an adult to help you! Brush for at least 2 minutes and twice a day! Here is an example:
Remember your bed-time routine is very special and important – so you have the right amount of energy for the next day!
Staying Healthy throughout the Week and Month of June: Exercise is important to stay healthy; try to exercise at least once a day with your family.
