Good Morning Everyone! Happy Friday!

I hope you all had a great day yesterday and managed to complete some of the activities I posted. Some new tasks for you to try. Enjoy!

Activity 1 – New Sound

L.I. to understand that a letter shape is a “picture” of the sound I hear

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 write the y letter

y is loud green sound. Can you practice saying the sound? The slides below will help you form the letter shape. We use a yak to help us. Down one horn, across the eyes, up the other horn and down his face and curve under his nose, this curve will appear under the line when you are writing this letter.  Practice writing y in your jotter.

           

Can you use your super blending skills to read the words below?

y -a – k         y – u – m             y – u – ck           y – e – s             y – e – t

Next please go to your home learning pack and complete Draw something that begins with the letter y and Circle all the y sounds.
