COMMON WORDS – read these words aloud from your word wall or list.
Group 1 – Revise all words on your word wall.
Group 2 – fly, food, found, four PLUS common words from the word wallets.
SPELLING
Practise writing these words in your jotter in rainbow writing. Do each word three times.
Group 1 -there, little, one.
Group 2 – we, he, she.
Use Sumdog to practise your spelling skills too.
sounds
We will continue to practise these sounds this week –
Group 1 – “ou” sound (pound, cloud, outside, count etc). Practise reading the “ou”words from your sound booklet each night.
Group 2 – Practise reading aloud the ‘ck’ sound words from your sound booklet every night ( ring, bang, long, sung etc).
READING
We will be talking about summarising the story and saying what happened at the BEGINNING, MIDDLE and END of the story. Ask your child to tell you about the MAIN thing that happened at the beginning, middle or end to check they have understood what they have read.
HANDWRITING
Practise writing these 3-D shape words words in small and capital letters – cube, cuboid, cylinder, sphere, pyramid, cone, triangular prism.
Remember to start at the correct place and make the capitals and tall letters touch the top line in your jotter.
Make tall letters and capitals twice as big as the small letters.
Sit your letter on or below the line.
MATHS
We will be working on subtraction sums within 20 and using the strategy of bridging back to number 10 when subtracting. For example 14 – 6 would be worked out this way –
14 – 4 = 10 Then 10 – 2 = 8 (taking away 4, then taking away the 2 is the same as taking away 6).
so 14 – 6 = 8
Try lots of subtraction sums like this as well as asking lots of oral questions to increase speed and accuracy.
