Of course we have some tasks for you. Here is what we would like you to work on today. Please also see Week 2 Timetable for more details.

Literacy

  • Our new sound today is ‘wh’.

Where is the ‘wh’ sound made? (Note for parents it is made with the lips and is a loud red sound)

  • Can you think of any words that have the ‘wh’ sound?
  • Does the ‘wh’ sound come at the start, the middle or the end of these words?
  • Slide some sounds together to form words:

which, when, where, wheel, whip, whisk, whisper,

  • Now write these words and draw a picture to match. (extension activity, write sentences.)
  • Videos to look at,

Topic

  • Listen to the story of Rosie’s Walk

After reading the story, focus the child’s attention on the illustration of the whole barnyard inside the front cover of the book.

Imagine you are a bird flying over the barnyard.  Talk about what you would see below you. Use this to draw a simple map of the barnyard and then mark out the route she takes.
