Hi everyone,
This week is a revision week. We are enclosing a new laminated Jolly Phonics sound wall. Please look after these and keep for revising and learning new sounds
1. Phonics Revision Work
The children will be revising all the initial sounds for the next two weeks: s,a,t,i,p,n,c,k,e,h,r,m,d,g,o,u,l,f,b.
They will also be working on blending e.g. s-a-t, p-i-n.
The aim for this weeks homework is to complete revision pages 37, 38 and 39 in Sounds Like Phonics.
The children should also practice saying and blending their sounds using the sound flashcards in their folders (the coloured cards).
2. Tricky Words Revision Game
Please ensure to practice tricky words daily
We have been learning a lot of tricky words since September.
In the homework folder you will find a Snakes and Ladders Tricky Word game which is played the same way as 'normal' snakes and ladders, only that whatever box you land on, the player has to read the tricky word in this box.
Playing games like this even once a night will really help the children's learning and retention of these words.
We will be revising these in school as well.
3. Oral Language Sheet - The Construction Site
The children will be learning all about The Construction Site over the next fortnight. Use the picture and questions to discuss what happens on a construction site as well as different types of homes and houses in your area.
