Notes for Parents about the Learning Project for this week:
Where Do You Live?

The project this week aims to provide opportunities for your child to learn more about the
area in which they live.
Learning may focus on your local area, famous people, key landmarks and links to your town or city.
To develop knowledge of the location of significant places:
Ask your child to look at where they live. What can they see outside the window in the front of their
house? At the back of their house? What could they find near them? Find a map and see if they can
find Ripon. Do they know the name of their street? Can they create a street sign with their street name?
My address: Support your child to find out your address.Can they find the name of your house or the number on your door?
Can they write the number in digits and words?.
Ask them to try writing the number using crayonsmand paint.
My house: Discuss with your child what their house looks like inside and outside? How many
bedrooms does it have? Who has the biggest bedroom? Who has the smallest? Ask them to look
outside their window and see if they can spot a house different to their own.
Can they draw their house? How many windows at the front? How many windows at the back? Do
you have one door or two? In a special bag - could you (with adult support) place things that make it
your home? Why would you pick those items?
Draw a picture of your street or lane . Support your child to take a look at the street and buildings around
where they live. Encourage them to think about the shape of the buildings.
Shape hunt : Take your child on a shape hunt around their house and garden. Look at the different
shapes of the windows, doors, and houses. Can they name them? Are they 2D or 3D shapes?
Ask them to create a picture of their house or street.
Name the shape: Place some 2D or 3D shapes into a bag and play the game ‘Can
you name the shape?’ You will need a partner to play this game. One partner has a
shape from the shape bag and they stand back to back. The partner with the shape
describes it to their partner who has to try and draw it.How many do you know?
Find you house on ‘ Google maps ’
https://www.google.co.uk/intl/en_uk/earth/
Search for your house on the street? Can you find Ripon, Harrogate, Grantley?
Compass : Make a compass. Do you know what the different compass points
mean? Can you label the points?
Create a passport: create an individual passport to show your own information
about where you live. Discuss the use of a Passport. What is a passport? What information does it
contain? What does a passport allow you to do? Can you find a real life
passport? Do you have one?
Flag:. What does the Yorkshire flag look like? What do you think the flag represents?
Can you design your own flag for your local area? What could you add? What would they mean to you?
Can you make a model of your house?
Can you find the UK on the map? Can you name the countries? Why do you think the Countries
begin with a capital letter? This song may help
