This week the children were learning a new sound – “sh” and 3 new common words – “did”, “as” and “he”.

The children enjoyed working with a friend to say, make, blend, read and write “sh” words. They used magnetic letters and boards.

To help learn to read and spell common words the children worked with a partner. They had to find a word, tap the word with a hand wand and then write it on a whiteboard. The children had great fun asking their friends to find words and especially liked using the hand wands.
