Lets start with out daily phonics lesson!

PHONICS – With a person at home use your pencil as your pointing stick and work your way through the speed sound sheet. Remember to challenge yourself and try to say the sounds in a different order.

Each of you have either set 2 or set 3 sounds in your home learning packs too. With someone at home say the sound and then the words underneath. Remember to say…

• The special friends
• Fred in your head
• Say the words

Work through this booklet to practice this!

JOTTER CHALLENGE – Open your blue home learning jotter and choose another jotter challenge of your choice. Complete this in your blue jotter.

WRITING

As we aren’t to leave our houses for the next little while it is difficult to talk to the people you usually see everyday. In the classroom we have been learning how to write letters and understand that we write letters to communicate with people.

We know that letters are written in three parts…

• Introduction/Beginning – This is where we explain why we are writing to the person we have chosen.
• Middle  – Where we go into more detail and ask any questions we would like to ask.
• End – This is where we thank our reader and hope for a reply.

Your writing task today is to write a letter to a friend or family member you do not live with. This could be anyone you have not seen for a little while.  Think about what you could ask them, tell them what you have been doing while you have been at home. What have you played with? What have you learned?

In your home learning packs I have included a letter template which could help you.

Remember the order…

• Address
• Date
• Dear
• The 3 parts of your letter
• Name

Have fun!
