Letter Sounds

This week our letter sounds are c/k and e. Letter c/k homework should be completed for Thursday and letter e homework should be completed by next Monday.

Common Words

Every week in school the children will be introduced to two common words. These will be revised daily and displayed in the classroom. Our aim is for the children to recognise and be able to read the words. They can be reinforced at home by completing the common word homework for Thursday each week. Words for this week are the and are. You may need to help your child to write the number after counting the words together.  From this week they can try to write the words too.

Reading

Reading will be done twice a week in school on a Monday and a Thursday so the children will get 2 new books each week. They will have heard the extended story in school so may be able to tell you more about what is happening in the pictures. Encourage your child to look at the words or point to them as you read.
