Friday sentence of the day and phonics

Date: 24th Apr 2020 @ 9:29am

Can you believe it’s already Friday? This week has flown by and we have loved getting back onto the blogs and seeing all of your amazing home learning! Check back on the blog later and we will have our very own Year 1 celebration of all the fantastic things you have been doing at home!

Sentence of the day

Here are some pictures of children who managed to find the nouns in yesterday’s sentence. Well done! Here is a picture of the sentence with all of the nouns underlined. Remember a noun is a person, a place or an object.

Today’s sentence is going to have a little bit of everything we have done this week. I want you to find ways that you can make my sentence better. It might be missing capital letters, it might need some question marks. Maybe you could add some adjectives in before the nouns to make it more interesting.

Phonics

I loved seeing your phonics activities from yesterday. Watch the tricky word video again to check if you can remember them today …

Today’s phonics focuses on the oo sound family.

In your home learning packs you have some games and activities which all focus on the oo sound family. There are also lots of games on https://new.phonicsplay.co.uk/  (your username and password is in the home learning pack) Use these activities as a start point and then I have a challenge for you.

I want you to design and make your own game. The game must be all about those oo sounds. You could have a snakes and ladders game with different oo words on the different squares. Maybe you want to write down as many words with the different oo sounds in them and play a game of snap or pairs. You could even play oo sound bingo!

I can’t wait to see the games that you have made! Just remember they must have the oo sounds in them!

Good Luck and don’t forget to send pictures of you playing your games to y1homelearning@ravensbury.manchester.sch.uk
