we are looking at blending our sounds together – model these sounds and see if your child can blend them – c-a-t

d-o-g   m-a-p  etc.  then play the following blending game on phonic play – model blending the sounds together to read the word.

Can they write any sounds?  Say the sound and write the letter – use our formation examples in our handwriting video on the main class page.

Maths (choose 2 activities each day)

Recite numbers to 10 and then back from 10 to 0 – say it loud, say it quietly, stamp when you are reciting, clap when you are reciting

Balance on one leg – how high can you recite to when you are balancing?  Do it again – did you balance for longer this time?

Play the gingerbread game – can they count the objects carefully and match to the correct number?

get some dried pasta – grab a handful – can you count them carefully?  Can you write the number?  Grab some more – how many this time?  Can you add them together?  How many in total?

Text:  Beegu – tell your grown up all about our story!

Watch a you tube reading of the story and then discuss the events in the story – how would you feel if you were beegu?  How could she be helped?
