Good Morning Everyone!
Good Morning boys and girls, I hope everyone had a lovely relaxing weekend and are ready for all of this week’s home learning tasks.
Let’s start the week as we mean to go on…Let’s get moving! This is one of my favourite songs..
At 11am today the crew at Fischy Music are running another live assembly. Use Youtube ( with the help of an adult) to join in and maybe you will recognise some of the songs we sing in assembly or class. Below is a link to help you find it.

Phonics
The new sound this week is th – there are lots of th activity worksheets in your packs to help you learn all about this sound. Don’t forget to use them in addition to any activities I add on here.
I always call this the cheeky clown sound because you have to stick your tongue out a little to make the sound!
Here is the jolly jingle to go with the sound.
https://youtu.be/o6054qdeaeg
Can you think of any th words? Look around you, are there any objects which contain this sound?
Here is Geraldine, to give you a hand…
We need to be really careful not to get tricked out by this sound. It sounds very similar to f… but can you tell the difference?
Have a go at saying both these sounds out loud using the picture below. Try and feel the ‘cooling’ and think about where you feel it, on your lips or your teeth.
Now have a go at writing some words containing this sound. Have an adult read them out to you. Listen carefully.
th – i -ck th – i – n th -a -n -k t -ee- th t -oo -th
p – a – th b – a – th cl – o – th w- i – th

Daily Ten
Here are your daily ten for today. There is a mixture of different questions for you this week, covering topics from throughout the year so far.
Health and Well being
We have been focusing on Friendships and how to be a good friend to others. I want you to have a look at the statements below and chat about them with an adult.
Do you agree with all of these statements?
Can you make your own list of what makes a good friend?
Finally, just for fun…
Have a great day boys and girls, I will be back tomorrow with some more home learning ideas.

Watch this song to remind yourself all about tally marks:
Your task today is to tally the cars in your street by their colour. Use the grid below to help you. Remember, in the last box you should write how many cars there are in number form (e.g. 12).

After Lunch
Listening and Talking
LI – To talk clearly and with expression about a topic. SC – I can present a 2 minute detailed solo talk on a topic or event that interests me.
You did such a great job with your writing activity with Miss Taylor last week I thought you might enjoy this. Your talk can be about absolutely anything. It could be an area of World War 2, a hobby that you have or even be about your pets. It would be a good idea to write notes in your jotter then practise giving your talk. You could self assess using 2 stars and a wish. If you are able to, and would like to, you can send a video to the school email and then they will be forwarded to me. I would love to see them. Good luck!
