Home Link Note Monday 21st November 2016

Week beginning Monday 21st November
We have now worked through the sounds s, a, t, i, p, n, c, k, e, h,
r, m, d, g, o, u, l and b and their capitals to date. It is vital that
your child is able to correctly form and sound these out
(including their capital form). Please revise these with your child
daily, referring to your child’s feedback booklet from the
recent parent/teacher meetings for guidance.
Please focus your handwriting support this week on correct
formation of
‘ai’
We will also work at the digraph
* We say that when two vowels go walking, the first one does the
talking with its name (leaving ‘ai’ sounding like the letter name
‘A’)
Actions to practise:
Cup hand over ear and say ai ai ai ai
Pretend
to wobble on a plate and say j j j j
Mental
Maths to practise;
- Count to 40
- Help your child practise recalling the addition facts to 4; we are
trying to learn these off in our heads.
