It was really fun guessing what your zoomed in images were yesterday! Well done everyone that took part!

Today I have set a few more assignments for you, should you need them. If not, just continue with Mondays.

H&WB – What is bullying?

Last week you were asked to take part in an anti-bullying questionnaire, so I thought we’d look into this a bit more. This activity needs you to think about bullying and it’s effects.

Good morning everyone! Hope you have all had a lovely weekend?

It was a bit wet yesterday, so we did some baking and watched a movie. What about you guys, what have you been up to over the weekend?

Today I have set a few assignments:

Literacy

Spelling – ‘ou’ Phoneme
The phoneme ‘ow’ can make two sounds ‘ow’ as in ‘cow’ and ‘ow’ as in ‘crow’. This week we are focusing on the ‘ow’ phoneme as in ‘cow’. There are three ways of making the ‘ow’ phoneme this week: ‘ow’ (e.g cow), ‘ou’ (e.g. cloud) and ‘ough’ (this one can be tricky). Make three lists of words including these phonemes, you can look in books to help you if you wish. It can can be tricky choosing words that have the correct sound in them. Make sure all of your words have the same ‘ow’ sound as ‘cow’ in them somewhere.
