Welcome back after the break! I hope you had a lovely time during half-term holidays.

 

 

It was lovely seeing you on the Teams meeting last week. We are really looking forward to seeing you all next week in person. 

 

We are continuing to look at people who help us. Our story is about a very helpful giant.

It’s called, The Smartest Giant in Town, by Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler. 

 

Listen to the story:

 

After listening to the story can you remember which animals George helped and what did he give them? The answers are at the bottom of the page, check to see if you were right.

 

 

 

 

Phonics

This weeks sound is 'n'. We use the following rhyme to write the letter. Down Nobby. Over his net. Watch the clip below to learn how to say and write the sound. In the download section, you can find the 'n' sound sheet. 

 

 

 

Below is the Alphablocks session for the sound 'n'. 

 

 

 

Maths: Look at this picture what do you notice about the giant and the people around him? Are they all the same size?

 

 

 

 

 

 

Can you point to who is tallest and who is smallest?

How can we measure things? There are lots of different ways. You could make your own tape measure using hand prints.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

How many hand prints high are you?

How many hand prints tall are  your teddies or dinosaurs?  You could use lots of things to measure such as  crayons or blocks. What other things can you measure?

 

   

 

Who is the tallest  and the smallest in your Family?
