Join Mrs Jones and Phonics Fred as the continue to explore halving. This time they am will be halving numbers using objects, you could do the same at home too using toys, teddies, sweets and other things.
Start with the whole amount, then begin to ‘share’ between two people (put them into two groups) “one for you and one for me”.
If you both have the same number at the end and no more left over, then that number can be halved. How much have you both got?

Mrs Hall is still exploring phase 4 phonics but will be reviewing some of our previous learning.
Start off by recalling your different phonemes and digraphs as quickly as you can. If you want to pause between each card or you can also go back and try again. Do you know all your tricky words? See if you can spot them when Mrs Hall shows you them.
Mrs Hall still wants to help you remember the difference between 'b' and 'd', see if you can remember which way around they go.
Have a go at segmenting and blending words using some consonant blends, Mrs Hall will change a letter at a time to make a new word. You could also try this game at home, see if you can get an older brother or sister or a grownup to play with you.
Listen to Mr Hughes read a lovely story called Owl Babies, written by Martin Waddell and illustrated by Patrick Benson.
Have you ever seen an owl before? Did you know they come out at night? They are nocturnal animals. Find out what happens when three owl babies wake up and find their mummy isn’t there.
We will be reading this story in school this week as lots of us return. We think everyone might have a few mixed up feelings inside just like the monster in the story. Some of you might feel excited, or scared or worried.
We will be talking about our feelings and making our own worry monster that we can tell some of our worries too.
If you are staying at home you might have some mixed up feelings too. You might feel lonely or excited or happy. If you are worried about anything you could make your own worry monster too.
In this video Mrs Hall is going through some things that we all find a bit tricky. She will start with recalling some digraphs, then go over writing 'ch', 'sh' and 'th'.
We all get a bit muddled by the letters 'b' and 'd' and Mrs Hall is going to go over these to help. After singing the alphabet song she will play a little game to help identify the vowels in our alphabet; a, e, i, o, u.
Have a go at segmenting using some phase 4 consonant blends. You can have a go at home too, use some letters if you have them or write them on some paper first.

We hope you’ve enjoyed learning about doubling so far with Mrs Jones and Fred.
Today they are continuing to explore doubles with number. See if you can join in too.
Join Mr Beard as he learns to use the phoneme ‘a’ when blending and segmenting.
Practise some tricky words first the have a go at writing the letter ‘a’ at home. Instead of using your pen and paper, why not try writing the letter in flour on a plate, and if you have some chalk you could try writing on the patio of pavement.
Try joining Mr Beard when he blends the phonemes in words to help read them. And then have a go at copying him when he segments.
Can you name the different objects that Mr Beard has arranged in this video?
See if you can name them (ask a grownup if you get stuck) then have a go at listening for the different phonemes that make up the word. You might want to write them too.
This week White Rose Maths have linked all their learning to the story Zog by Julia Donaldson. You might have the story book at home to read and share together, or you can watch it on the link below.
