Anuban Weekly Outline

This week we are learning:

Living and Non-Living Things

Circle Time Review

In circle time this week we will review
healthy and unhealthy eating to check that
the students understand and remember all
of the vocabulary. I will ask the students
what they ate for breakfast each morning
and whether they think it was healthy or
unhealthy. We will also review the food
groups using the scatter game and discuss
'always food' and 'sometimes food'.

Activity Time
Living and non-living things booklet identifying things that are alive and not
alive, and learning about life processes like growing, eating, drinking etc.
Exploring the school and identifying living and non-living things in the grounds.
Children should find images at home of living and non-living things to make a
display.
Studying how things grow and practicing slow, controlled dances that represent
the growth of plants.
Circle of Life song.
Living and non-living presentation display identification and artwork.
This week we will continue to work through the living and non-living things
booklet to check understanding, and the students will all be creating an art
project using old magazine pictures to make a collage of living and non-living
things. We can display the collage in the classroom to help the students
remember what they have learned.

Grammar
This week in grammar we are going
to do more work on plurals. We are
going to review when we add s and
when we add es. We are then going
to look at adding ies and explore
irregular words that change
completely (woman-women) when
they become plural or even stay the
same (sheep-sheep). We will do lots
of practicing as a group and some
examples on the board. We will then
do some exercises in our Grammar
books where the students have to
read sentences and provide the
correct plural endings. When this is
complete we will review it as a group
and then do some additional
exercises that I will write onto the
white board.

Living, non-living, alive, dead, live, die.

Breath, breathing, air.
Eat, food, drink, water.
Animals, plants and people are living things.
Mountains, buildings etc are non-living things.

Science

This week in science the

students will continue to study
materials. We are going to
continue to practice the
vocabulary and the focus
grammar: What is the window
made from? The window is
glass.
We will then do an experiment
where the class will make a
table that contains several
materials (wood, metal, plastic,
rubber, leather, glass) and will
go around the school making a

Parent Follow Up / Useful

Websites / Homework:
It would be a great help if parents
can continue this topic at home
by helping students identify the
living and non-living things
around them in the home. There
will also be a homework project
with this unit where students need
to find pictures in magazines at
home any help with this will be
greatly appreciated.
