The children have been busy this week learning the sounds d and t. We have also started to build some words using our learned sounds. The children have been using their listening skills to spot if they hear a sound first or last when saying a CVC word. For example with the word mat do you hear the t sound first or last? In numeracy we have been counting and sorting with 6 and 7 this week. In PE the class enjoyed using juggling scarves and balance boards to practice skills such as balance and hand eye coordination.
Below are the children’s comments on their learning highlights and challenges this week.
