On the Ruth Miskin YouTube channel there

are other short videos that can support

parents called parent video: Understanding

Phonics and how to say the sounds. Please

watch these if you feel unsure.

10:30 – 11:30am: Literacy

Read the story Little Red Riding Hood.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LDMWJCrDVMI

TASK: Talk to your child about the characters in the story and what

they’re like. Little Red Riding Hood is kind. Why? Because she bought

flowers for her Grandma. The Huntsman is strong. Why? Because he

picked up the wolf and shuck him.

Please find attached resource description sorting:

https://www.twinkl.co.uk/resource/t-t-18056-little-red-riding-hood-cut-

and-stick-character-description-sorting-activity

Your child will need help recognising the words and what

they might mean. Ask them to identify the initial sound

so scared begins with the ‘s’ sound. Ask them what does

scared mean? Which character do they think was scared

in the story? Match the words to the character they

think it suits best.

11:30am – 1pm: Lunch and free time

1 – 1:30pm: Maths

One more and Two more

See resource: https://www.twinkl.co.uk/resource/t-n-1280-1-more-and-

2-more-activity-sheet

Ask your child what + symbol means? Its means to add!

Ask your child what = symbol means? It means equals!

Use the number line to count on 1 more to 10 and 2 more to 10. Make sure

your child can recognise all the numbers to 10.

If it is 1 more than 5 they find 5 on the numberline and hop over 1 more.

What number do they get? 6! Ask them to write the calculation 5+1=6.

Make sure your child understands to add one more they move over once

on the numberline.

Repeat with adding 2 more.

Two more than 6? Find 6 on the number line and jump over 2 spaces.

What’s the answer? 8!

Ask them to write 6+2=8

1:30 – 2:30pm: Science – Paper towel art!

You will need:

Marker (permanent and washable)

Paper towels

Wash in a small tray

Scissors

Step 1: You will need to prepare your paper towels. Do this by taking

a square of paper towel and folding it in half. Then cut the paper

towel so you end up with a small square with another small square

behind it (see image below)

Step 2: Draw pictures on the paper towels

Now it's time to design your pictures. Take a permanent marker and

draw an image on the top layer of the folded paper towel. Start by

drawing a simple design like a rainbow, you can always get more

adventurous as you get into it!

Step 3:

When you lift up the top layer of the paper towel you will see that

the pen has gone through the paper towel onto the layer below. Now

it is time to colour in this outline or add to your image. Colour the

image with washable markers so the colour bleeds when it is put into

water.

Step 4: Add paper towel art to water!

Now its time for the magical part of this paper towel activity. Make

sure everyone is watching as this happens fast! Place the paper towel

into the water. As the water soaks through the two layers of the

paper towel the colours from the bottom layer will appear through

the top layer of the paper towel making it look as if the colours or

images have appeared by magic.

Have a go with different drawings! Make sure you send a picture or video

of it to your teacher!

10:30 – 11:30am: Literacy

Recap the story of Little Red Riding Hood.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LDMWJCrDVMI

Look at the work you completed yesterday. Remember the characters

from the story and how you described them. Today, ask your child to

write some sentences describing the wolf. First ask them to draw a

picture of the wolf. Then underneath write sentences the picture. Remind

your child to use a capital letter at the start of the sentence and a full

stop at the end. Children should be writing sentences like:

The wolf is bad.

He is mean.

He has sharp teeth.

The wolf is hairy.

Remember these sentences have to be phonetically

plausible.

Ask your child to hold the sentence this means they can

remember the order of the words and say them out

loud confidently. Then let them have a go at writing the

sentence independently. This needs to be phonetically

plausible. Phonetically plausible is a word that can be

identified for what it is, even if it is not spelt

correctly. For example:

Teeth – teef

Mean – meen

Wolf – wulf

11:30am – 1pm: Lunch and free time

10:30 – 11:30am: Literacy

Explain to your child that the wolf is feeling really bad about what he did

to Red Riding Hood and Grandma so he wants to write a letter saying

sorry. Ask your child if they have ever done something and felt sorry?

Explain to them that sometimes people do things wrong but when we do

we must say sorry and apologise.

See letter writing resource:

https://www.twinkl.co.uk/resource/t-t-23817-letter-to-granny-from-

the-wolf-little-red-riding-hood-writing-frame

Write a letter to Grandma from the wolf.

Ask your child to hold the sentence this means they

can remember the order of the words and say them

out loud confidently. Then let them have a go at

writing the sentence independently. This needs to be

phonetically plausible. Phonetically plausible is a word

that can be identified for what it is, even if it is not

spelt correctly. For example:

person – pursun

sorry – soree

wolf – wulf

Remind them of their presentation and handwriting – forming their

letters correctly.

11:30-1pm: Lunch and free time

1:30 – 2:30pm: Biscuit decorating!

Using any plain biscuit, icing and sweets let your child decorate their own

biscuits. Remember to tell them to wash their hands and show them how

10:30-11:30am: Literacy

Using the stick puppets you made yesterday ask your child to retell you

the story of Little Red Riding Hood.

Then ask them questions about the story:

What happens first?

What does the Wolf do that is wrong?

What happens to Grandma?

How was Grandma feeling when she was in the Wolfs tummy?

How saves everyone?

How does the Huntsman save them?

What do you think happens to the wolf after he escapes?

Do you think the wolf is sorry for what he did?

Is Red Riding Hood a good character? Why?

TASK: Explain to your child you have a basket to take to your Grandma’s

or Grandad’s or Aunties/Uncles house. What would you put in it? It might

be some green apples or yummy chocolate!

Draw a picture of the items you would put in the

basket and label it. Ask your child to describe the

item instead of just writing apple, they could write

green apple.

Remember the words need to be phonetically

plausible!

Phonetically plausible is a word that can be

identified for what it is, even if it is not spelt

correctly. For example:

person – pursun

sorry – soree

wolf – wulf

Remind them of their presentation and handwriting – forming their

letters correctly.

11:30-1pm: Lunch and free time

1 – 1:30pm: Maths

Ask your child what these symbols mean + addition = equals

Remind them of how to count on a number line starting with the chosen

number and then jumping along. See attached resource:

https://www.twinkl.co.uk/resource/roi-n-5541-addition-to-10-numberline-

activity-sheets

This resource has 2 sheets one is more difficult than the other. Please do

not worry if your child struggles with the larger numbers! Just make sure

they understand how to start on the chosen number and count along.

1:30 – 2:30pm: LEGO Challenge!

Can you build a Lego house like Grandma’s cottage?

2-3pm: Access Phonics Play. https://new.phonicsplay.co.uk

Play the game picnic on pluto.

Obb and Bob are brothers. Bob loves to eat snacks that are real

words and Obb likes to eat fake words. Click on PHASE 2. Then

Revise all phase 2.

Allow your child to sound out the words. They sound out the

letters for example: hop they would say h – o – p then say them

together: hop. The children need to decide if the word is real or

fake and feed it to the correct alien. Hop is a real word but hep

is a fake word.

where the story is set and who the main characters are. Ask

them what happens at the start, middle and end of the story.

See the twinkl resource as a writing frame.

Make sure your child’s writing is phonetically plausible; letters

are formed correctly and encourage neat presentation.

https://www.twinkl.co.uk/resource/t-l-979-little-red-riding-

hood-story-review-writing-frame

11:30-1pm: Lunch and free time

1 – 1:30pm: Maths

Read these word problems to your child one by one. Make sure they have

a number line to work from. Encourage them to write out the number

sentence for each calculation.

Little Red Riding Hood picked 4 blue flowers and 3 red flowers,

how many did she pick altogether?

Encourage your child to write 4+3=

Then use the number line to find the answer and write the answer

after the = sign.

4+3=7

The huntsman has 2 pieces of wood and collects 3 more, how many

does he have altogether?

The wolf has eaten 2 of Little Red Riding Hoods cakes he eats 2

more, how many has he eaten altogether?

Grandma has lost 5 teeth she looses another 4 teeth, how many

teeth has grandma lost altogether?

1:30-2:30pm: Play ‘What’s in the box?’

You will need a box with a lid that is large enough for any item you might

put in it. Paper, pens, card, pegs, pasta, bowls, items or pictures to go in

the box.

Place an item or picture in a box and then encouraging your child to ask

questions to find out what the item is. For example, if a teddy bear, they

might ask, “Is it a toy?” “Is it hard or soft?” “Does

it have arms and legs?” “Can it fly?” “Does it move?”

The rules could mean that you will just answer “yes”

or “no” to these questions. Aim to have a limit of 10

questions. Consider keeping count using a tally such

as adding 10 pegs onto a piece of card, placing 10

pieces of pasta in a bowl, 10 ticks on a piece of

paper. Your child will then have to guess after the 10

questions have been asked.

Swap roles and allow your child to answer your

questions.
