“Reading and re-reading books helps children
to build up their fluency and confidence,”
National Curriculum 2014




Research Project
Look on the internet and find out about Brazil or the World Cup. Help your
child to write down 10 facts that they find. Some useful websites can be
found on the back of this booklet. You could always visit the library and
use their computers if you do not have one at home.

Make a Poster
Help your child to make a poster to advertise
their favourite sport or sports team. Talk about
the need for the writing to be big and bright to
catch people’s eyes. Look for posters or adverts
on billboards when you are out and about. What
are they telling us or what do they want us to
buy?

Acrostic Poem
Write a poem about football using the letters in the word football as the
start of each sentence. Talk to your child about what they already know
about the sport to get some ideas before you start. E.g.
Football is my favourite sport,
Our family watch it all the time.
Other people just don’t like it,
They don’t understand the excitement as the,
Ball goes into the goal…
AAAAAAHHHHHHHH! GOOOOAAAAALLLL!
Loudly we shout!
Let’s all love football.

Help your child to learn their poem
off by heart and perform it to their family.

By the end of Year 1, most children should be able to …
 Count forwards and backwards in ones to 100 and read and write
numbers to 100 in numerals

 Count in multiples of twos, fives and tens

 Say the number that is 1 more or 1 less from any number

 Add and subtract one-digit and two-digit numbers to 20, including
zero, using the signs +, -, =

 Solve one-step problems that involve repeated addition
(multiplication) and repeated subtraction (division) using objects
and pictures

 Know all pairs of numbers making 10 and 20

 Recognise and name halves and quarters of objects, shapes and
quantities

 Compare, describe and solve practical problems for: lengths and
heights, mass and weight, capacity and volume

 Know the value of different coins and notes

 Tell the time to the hour and half past the hour and draw the hands
on a clock face to show these times

 Identify and name common 2-D and 3-D shapes

 Describe position, direction and movement, including whole, half,
quarter and three-quarter turns

Some targets are harder than they seem, e.g. children who can count up to
20 may still have trouble saying which number comes after 12. They may
have to start at 1 and count from there.


Research Project
Research and find out what your family’s favourite sport is. Ask every member the
same question and help your child to make a tally chart to show how many people
like each sport.
Use the data you have collected to make a block graph
to show the same information in a different way.

Ask your child questions
about their graph. Talk about
what the data shows.

E.g. What is the most popular
sport? How do you know?
Which is the least popular?
How many more people like
football than rugby?

Telling the Time
Look at the hands on a clock, and talk to your child about
o’clock times and half past times. Look at where the hands
are on the clock. Try to use the correct words for the ‘hour
hand’ (the short one) and the ‘minute hand’ (the long one).
Talk about how the hour hand moves to the next number
after the minute hand has gone all the way around the clock
once. Ask your child questions which make them think
about 1 hour later and 1 hour earlier.

E.g. I woke up at 8 o’clock and came to school 1 hour later. What time did I come
to school?
I was playing football at half past 5 and an hour earlier I was eating my tea. What
time did I have my tea?

Time Yourself Challenge
You will need a stopwatch (most smartphones have this function in the clock
settings) or a timer of some kind e.g. a kitchen timer or a sand filled egg timer, or
watch the hands on a real clock.
Time your child doing different activities, see how many times they
can do an activity in a minute. E.g. How many times can they jump
in 1 minute? How many times can they run down the garden and
back in 1 minute? How many times can they write their name in
1 minute?
Encourage your child to challenge other members in the family,
who can do the most?

Science
The World Cup is being held in Brazil. There are lots
of different animals that live in the rainforest in
Brazil. Can you use the library, books or the internet
to find out which animals live there? Can you write
down some facts for each animal?
Outdoor Learning
Play your favourite sports outdoors with
your friends. Think about the rules you
need to play it. It takes a long time and lots
of practice to be a professional sports
person. You will need to practice lots to get
good at your favourite sport too.
Can you think up a new sport? Think about
the rules you will need to play your sport.
What will you call it? How many players do
you need? What equipment do you need?
Art and Design
Design and draw a sports kit for your team
to wear when they play your made up new
sport. What colours will each team play in?
What will their logo be? Who is their
sponsor? Ask your mum or dad if they can
help you paint or draw your design onto an
old plain t-shirt. Please ask first!




Music and Movement
Listen to Samba and Latin music. How does it make
you feel? What do you want to move like when you
listen to it? Make up your own dance routine to this
music and perform it to your family.
Look at the clothes the dancers wear, how do they
move with the music? You could always design your
own dance costume on paper.
Geography
Find out where the world cup football teams
come from. Look for the countries on a world
map.

Can you find out what each country’s flag
looks like and what language they speak
there?

See the back page of the book for a world
map and links to helpful websites. Don’t
forget you can always use the library too.
Sports day
Over the summer holidays meet with your friends and
design your own sports day event. Decide which events to
have e.g. running races, jumping races, skipping races,
football match. Make medals and trophies to give to the
winners. Make healthy snacks and drinks as
refreshments. Invite your family to be the spectators.
