Good Morning Everyone! I hope you are all well and ready to learn! A few tasks for you to try.
Activity 1 – Phonics

L.I. to understand that 2 letters can make 1 sound
S.C. I can say the sound to match the letter shape
S.C. I can blend this sound with other sounds to read words
S.C. I can spell words with this sound in them
Yesterday I introduced you to the sh sound. 
Use your super blending skill to read the following words- Top Tip – remember the sh sound can come at the end of a word!
f – i – sh d – i – sh m -a- sh s – m – a – sh
Today I would like you to add the correct sh word to complete the sentences. To help you I have listed the missing words in bold below- (record completed sentences in your jotter)

Activity 2 – Reading

S.C. I can use words that I know in a sentence to help predict what an unfamiliar word could be
S.C. I can describe my favourite part of the book and explain why
I hope you enjoyed reading Painting the Loft and completing the play activities.
Today I would like you to complete one of the guided reading activities from your learning pack. – Try your very best to write at least 2 sentences describing your favourite part of the story and draw a picture to go with it. For example my favourite part is when Gran tells them they can sleep in the loft. I can imagine all the fun they are going to have and stories they are going to tell each other. Enjoy!
Activity 3 – Numeracy 
L.I. to identify different number combinations
S.C. I can describe how many dots I see and how I see them
You can record your answers in your jotter. How many combinations did you make?
Activity 4- Art and Design
I am not sure if you have noticed, but there are a lot of birds around at the moment, I can hear them singing day and night. They have always been there but because there are less aeroplanes and traffic we are able to hear and see them more clearly. I thought it might be a good idea to make a bird feeder for them.
Here are the instructions on how to make a cheerio bird feeder.
What you will need-
pipe cleaners
Cheerios
Instructions
1.Make a small hoop at the end of a pipe cleaner
2. Thread the cheerios through
3. Once the pipe cleaner is full of cheerios twist the 2 end pieces together and bend the feeder into any shape you want.
4. Go outside and find the perfect place to hang your bird feeder and then wait for the birds to enjoy a tasty treat.
Please send any pictures of birds enjoying their treats!
Have a great day. I will be back on Thursday with more activities, Mrs Stewart and Mrs Wallace will be posting challenges for you tomorrow!
