Phonics

You all have the link to the lessons related to the sound sets that your child is learning. Your child also needs to look at the spelling videos as part of their phonics too. These have been shared with you. Start from lesson 1 of these videos and do 1 a day. They are working retrospectively, so your child should be starting to get familiar with the sounds they are being asked to spell with. If you cannot find your link or you have forgotten which sounds your child is learning please send me a message on Dojo.

Reading

Visit the Oxford Owl website to access their free e-library, which has Read Write Inc Phonics books to match where your child is at in phonics, and book banded books to match your child's school reading book level. You all have the login details for our class account to this site, but if you can't remember it please send me a message on Dojo.

You can also use books from your child's own book shelf for reading together, and you can now also join Earl Shilton's digital library. Don't worry if you're not a member of Earl Shilton Library, you can now join online. Just follow the link:

Physical Activity

For our physical activity this week we are off to the Dough Disco with Mrs. Oliver and Miss White. Each day either Mrs. Oliver or Miss White will take you and your dough to the disco for a finger workout!

Today we're going to Dough Disco with Mrs. Oliver!

Literacy

For today's Literacy lesson we are going to have another reading task. last week lots of you told me how much you enjoyed the reading activity about Snow White. This week we are looking at a piece of non-fiction all about dogs. Remember, non-fiction means that this is not a story, but it is writing that is telling us some facts or information. I would like you to the read text below and then answer the questions. All of the questions are about what you have read, so if you are unsure of an answer go back and re-read the text. Try to read as much of the story as you can by yourself. Remember to use your sounds when blending words, and keep an eye out for those special friends. If you get really stuck ask your grown up at home to help you.

Maths

In Maths today we are thinking about taking away numbers that cross 10 (so numbers that will take us past 10) by counting back.
