Hello P1a
Hope you are all safe and well and hope you managed to enjoy some of the lovely sunshine last week.

Below are ideas for home learning this week. (Please remember that again, these are only ideas and you don’t need to do them all)

Below are some activities that you can do to practice these:
Activity 1 – Practice writing you sounds and common words. You can do this on paper with pencil, crayons, pens etc. You can do this 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.
On Friday at 11am we will be hosting a Primary 1 CVC words quiz using the app Kahoot! To join us, download the app on a tablet or phone before Friday. On Friday we will post the ‘pin’ for the quiz in our Microsoft team so that it only includes Ladywell Primary 1 children. The ‘pin’ will be posted at 10.50am. Type the ‘pin’ in to the Kahoot! App and at 11am it will start. We look forward to seeing some of you there!
I would love to see any pictures of these activities or any other activities you have been doing to practice, again through our Microsoft Team page or on twitter.
