Learning to read

Everyday we use our word cards to practise our sounds. We play a game called Show Me, Mrs Collins asks us to Β to hold up the different sounds that we hear, the sounds might be at the beginning, in the middle or at the end of words. We are also beginning to build small words , we use our fingers to help us break up the words into sounds, today we were making the words hen and pan.

Every week we focus on learning new words. Mrs Collins hangs the words up and we practise reading them.

We have been continuing to meet the characters from our reading books. Mrs Collins has been reading different stories about the characters and we have been learning to read their names by thinking about the different sounds in the words, the shape of the words, any letter patterns in the words.
