Good Morning Luna Class

Today we are in a new month - May!

We hope you have had a lovely weekend and look forward to receiving more emails with your fantastic work this week! 

Maths

• This week we are going to be learning all about taking away, this is also called subtraction.  When we take away we always end up with a smaller number than we started with.
• Have a look at the bus ten frame story below.  It talks about using the language ‘first’, ‘then’ and ‘now’ - just like we did last week when we were adding.
• Using your ten frames and some small toys can you make up your own take away bus story?  Tell it to your grown up. 
• For example – ‘First there were 8 toys on the bus, then 2 toys got off, now there are 6 toys left on the bus.
• You could have a go at writing this in a number sentence that looks like this: 8 – 2 = 6
• Repeat this activity 3 times.

Reading and phonics

This week we are learning the sound ch. The ch sound has one sound but two letters.

Watch the video. Can you practise writing the sound ch in your book.

Can you remember what the word pal means? 

What would you chat about with your pals?

Please remember to share your reading book with an adult every day. Make sure you are saying the sounds and reading the words.

Can you read this sentence? Remember some are two letters and one sound. Can you draw a picture to go with this sentence?
