HANDWRITING
Choose 5 words from your reading book and write them in your best handwriting.

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 have started revising reading the ‘o’clock’ time using analogue and digital clocks. Look around the house for any clocks and see if you can spot when they say an ‘oclock’ time. Can your child explain what the hands on the analogue clock are for? Can they explain what the numbers on the digital clock are for? Which hands/ numbers are for the hour and which are for the minutes?

Can they draw some analogue or digital clocks in their jotters?
