Homework 06th January

Hi everyone and welcome back to Term 2! 

Image result for happy 2020

We hope you all had a wonderful Winter Break and a very happy new year. Here's to a fantastic 2020! 

We had some printing issues today so we have not given out homework folders. Hopefully the printer will be back in action tomorrow. The homework below is for the week so try to get as much of it done as possible between Tuesday and Thursday.

Not all homework folders have been returned - can parents ensure all folders are in school tomorrow so the children receive their homework.

Here's the homework for the week:


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 34, 35 and 36 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

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.
