Big Learning this week…

Literacy

This week we will be learning the initial sounds ‘r’ and ‘m’.

Have a game of ‘I spy’ at home. Can you find objects beginning with ‘r’ and ‘m’

Keep blending sounds to make new words. Use our new sounds and give it a go! 🙂

Writing

We have been story telling. What great fun! We have used the story of ‘The Little Red Hen’ to tell our own jungle version called ‘The Little Brown Monkey’. We are using a story map and actions to help us remember what happens first, next, after that and finally. Have a go and tell our story to someone at home.

Later on in the week we will be sequencing the story and retelling it to our friends!

Numeracy

Keep practising counting forwards and backwards. We will focus on the number after and before this week. We are also using the words 1 more/1 less. Ask someone to give you a number and you tell them the number after or 1 more than. Try this for the number before or 1 less. Have fun! Use the house numbers you see when you are out and about or car registration numbers.
