Along with the information from the ELC that is being posted weekly there are some other things you can do with your child to help them develop literacy, numeracy and independent skills as they get ready to move into Primary One.

• Play “Ispy” but spell out the word instead of just saying a letter  e.g p-e-n and see if your child can slide the sounds together to make the word. Make sure you use letter sounds rather than alphabet names for this activity.
• Point out environmental print that they see around them (signs on shops, brand names on tins or cereal) Can they recognise any of the letters?
• Share a picture book with them and ask your child to tell you what is happening using the pictures, what do they think will happen next? What do they like or not like about the story?
• Encourage them to draw and add detail – drawing and mark making develops writing skills
• Talk with your child about their interests, drawings and games
• Play dice games – help your child to recognise the dots on a dice by counting them first to learn the pattern for each number
• Encourage your child to use their fingers to show numbers, can they show them in different ways? e.g – five can be made with two fingers on one hand and three on another or four on one hand and one on another.
• Count aloud numbers from 0-10 and beyond. Count forwards and backwards together. Stop and start on different numbers
• To build independence support your child to get changed independently, open snacks, zip up coats and put on shoes.

All of the information above and previous blog posts regarding uniform and equipment for school will also be e-mailed later in June to families joining P1 at Uphall

1. Literacy

By the end of this week I’d like you to produce a mini-travel story about you pretending to visit your dream location. In this story I would like you to add some basic phrases (e.g. French or Spanish) that you have learnt in your home learning.

Here is my example (WAGOLL):

Dashing around her bedroom, Miss Hall shoved the last of her holiday clothes into her already bursting suitcase! “Hurry up! You’re always en retard!” shouted Jason Momoa.

Within no time, Miss Hall and Jason were on their way to the airport, anxious that they would catch their flight on time! “Phew! We made it!” said Miss Hall and they boarded the flight, “I told you not to worry!”

After enjoying far too many mini boxes of Pringles Miss Hall and Jason finally landed in Paris. As they stepped off the plane the sights of France hit them. “Bonjour!” said the flight attendant, “il fait chaud aujourd’hui”.

“Ahhhh, oui! replied Miss Hall as she slowly began to remember her GCSE French.

“Wow! Est-ce le tour Eiffel?” exclaimed Jason.

“I think so…allons-y!” smiled Miss Hall and off they rushed to discover one of France’s most beautiful landmarks.

L.I. To identify the key features of the WAGOLL

Can you spot or highlight the following features…

• A variety of sentence openers
• Speech (remember new speaker=new line)
• Some basic French phrases
• Use of a variety of words for ‘said’

Now start to plan out your travel story. Where will you go? What will you do? Who will you go with? Find some useful French or Spanish phrases you can include.
