Good morning everyone and welcome to the first day of our learning week. I hope you all managed to get into your gardens or out for some exercise over the weekend. You should now be starting week 2’s activities. I have put a few links and additional tasks that you may like to try. Enjoy!

Activity 2 -Phonics ee and oo sounds. Continue to practice theses sounds (blend sounds to make words e.g. b-ee, h-oo-k, draw pictures to match the words, write sentences etc.) I have posted 2 codebreaker activities below. Remember to look for the number on the number line and then look underneath to find the sound. Once you have found all 3 sounds you can blend them to make a word. Enjoy!

Activity 3 – Art and Design. As the clocks sprung forward at the weekend and it is now official spring time it would be great to create some spring art. Below is a picture of a sunflower (you can draw any other kind of flower e.g a daffodil, tulip etc.) .You may need some help to draw the outline, then look around what could you recycle and use to make the petals/stem etc? I would love to put them up in the classroom so please keep them.
L.I. to use a range of media creatively
S.C. I can use different materials to create a sunflower or other spring flower
Have a great day. Keep safe!
