This week we have been exploring the book ‘How big is a million?’ The children have been enjoying learning about penguins as a result and have been happy to bring in story books and their cuddly penguin toys. Next week we will be looking at the change of the seasons from autumn to winter.

Language

Nemos Group next week we will be consolidating the words and sounds covered over the last 3 weeks.

diagrpaghs – ay, ea, and ow as in snow.

common words –

day, away, always, today,

each, ask, year, ear,

yellow, grow, again, food

Dory’s group

initial sounds – r, m, d, e, c, k, ck

common words-

am, me, my, did, as, he, can, we, into

If you have time perhaps you can play some activities to revise these sounds such as:

scavenger hunt around the house looking for items that match the initial sounds or look in your child’s books for words with the digraphs.

throw a ball to spell the words

rainbow writing words or hide some words in a drawing and getting someone to find them.

I will also put more related language activities on Education City.

 

Maths

In maths this week we have been looking at sequencing numbers

0 to 10 forwards/backwards

counting 0 to 20, 2s to 20,  5s to 50, 10s to 100

Again I will add some activities for your child to try on Education City.

Have a lovely weekend. Mrs Carey
