Activity 1 – Practice writing you sounds and common words. You can do this on paper with pencil, crayons, pens etc. You can dothis outside using chalk, squirting water from a bottle, making them out of twigs and stones be as creative as you can.

Activity 2 –Read and write some words starting with your sounds like ant, pig, sip …. and draw some pictures to match the words.

Activity 3 –Use some of your common words to write some sentences or tell an adult some sentences like – I got an apple from the fruit bowl.

Activity 4– Make flashcards of your common words and try jumping on each one when an adult calls them out or read each one as you jump on them or even throw a ball onto each word and read them when the ball lands on a word or stick them on a wall and shoot them with something.

Activity 5– Have someone give you a little test at the end the week to write the sounds and spelling words you have been practising.

This week’s I am hosting another reading quiz on Kahoot. It will be on Thursday at 11am. See our class Teams chat for further details.
