Maths Activity Focus: use everyday language related to time

Today we will be learning about time. Please watch the video posted by your class teacher on class dojo. First you might like to watch the video about ‘Different times of the Day’ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GqNaVXycr_o Discuss what day time and night time look like. Use these questions to support your child: How do we know it is night time? What will I see outside? How do I know it is the morning? Then, talk to your child about different tasks they do each day and allow them to say if they do these through the day or at night. When do you eat your breakfast? When do you read a story? When do you go to the park?

Key Vocabulary: day, night, morning, afternoon

After that, complete the activity in your home learning pack or download this sheet from our Weebly website. Look at the pictures - what is the character doing and when would they do this daily task? Ask your child to cut out the image and stick it in the correct box.

Please watch the video posted by your class teacher on class dojo. First you might like to watch the ‘My Day’ video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qD1pnquN_DM.

Next, ask your child to tell you what they do before they go to school in the morning. Encourage them to act out their morning routine, showing you what they do and talking about each of the tasks. After that, complete the activity in your home learning pack or download this sheet from our Weebly website. Talk about the images displayed – can your child talk about what the character is doing in a full sentence. For example: “The girl is brushing her teeth.” NOT “brush her teeth” Can you draw or stick the pictures in the boxes to explain the order you think the character would complete them in. Record a video of your child talking about the daily routine they have made. Encourage them to use openers as they do this - first, then, next, after that, last.
