Hello!
This week we have learnt the 4 consonant digraphs in our Phonics sessions. The children have brought home these sounds today and I have uploaded a clip showing how we say these sounds to the Early Years part of the school website. Please don't worry if your child finds these sounds more difficult to say, particularly the /th/ sound, we will be recapping them all throughout the coming weeks.
This week we have also heard all of the children read. It is so lovely when we get to read in the children's diaries how well they are doing at home, so please do keep on writing those comments, as we do find them helpful. I have updated some of the children's Big Cat e-book libraries too this week and will continue to do so next week.
On to our learning for the coming week, we will be:
- Sharing the story "Dinosaur Roar!", this is another rhyming book so we will be trying to find all of the rhyming words.
- Writing a caption to go along with one of the pictures from "Dinosaur Roar!", using describing words to match the picture.
- Comparing objects by their mass or capacity in our Mathematics sessions.
- Learning the first 4 vowel digraphs in our Phonics sessions.
- Making some 3D boxes to create some homes for different dinosaurs, using the illustrations from this week's book to help us with ideas.
- Learning some new Vocabulary Ninja words and having a go at writing them each day too.
