Good morning everyone! It is a lovely day today! A big happy birthday to Ella who is 6 today! I hope you have a lovely day Ella and I’m sure we will be back in school soon to sing you Happy Birthday!
Please see some activities you can do with your child today.
Word work: Please see attached Wednesday’s words your child can practice today.
Jolly Phonics: Sounds revision. Revise sound oa again today. See Jolly phonics songs on youtube (see previous blog posts for Jolly Phonics video). Children sing song, write sound and together think of some words that have the oa sound e.g. oats. Encourage your child to use their knowledge of rhyming words to think of more words.
Maths: Oral Maths: Name the days of the week and question children; What days are the weekend? What days are we in school? What day comes after Monday? What day will it be in two days’ time?
Please see this fun days of the week song to help your child practice!
