We can’t believe how much work you are all doing at home. All your P1 teachers are so impressed. We are really enjoying seeing messages on the blog or Twitter as this lets us see what fun you’ve been having.
Last week we created a grid of reading activities. These have been added here to help if your child was absent or if you have misplaced the pack.
It’s been great also to see that you have been using lots of different ways to learn, some of you have used Sumdog, others Education City and others have been trying the activities on IDL.
Next week, please look at your favourite books at home. Post on Twitter your favourite book. You can post this on Twitter at #SPSLovestoRead. When my children were little their favourites were Owl Babies and Dear Zoo.
After you’ve finished looking at your favourite books you could look for some of your keywords in these books.
Next week focus on- they, that, could, come, do,to- how many times can you find these words. Can you make them too- you could use paint, pens, crayons or maybe you can think of another way to create these words.
The last few sounds we had been learning in class had been th, y and qu. There are some activities on Education City which practise these sounds. Look at literacy and there is a section on jolly phonics. How many words can you find in your books which start or end with these sounds.
Hello Mrs MacClean – hope you are keeping well. Fiona & Ross enjoyed starting this new week with your reading challenge đ They chose two great books (âPrincess Swashbuckleâ & âThe Giant Jumpereeâ) and then went through looking for keywords…..they found loads!
Well done to both of them. It certainly looks as if they are having fun when learning.
