Date: 14th May 2020 @ 7:36pm

It’s Friday! This week seems to have zoomed by!

It has been lovely to see lots of you busy with your learning this week. Remember that you can still go on Lexia and active learn so that you can practice your reading skills every day.

Sentence of the day

Here are the answers for yesterday. There were quite a few mistakes yesterday. Well done to the children who used their amazing phonics skills to make sure the words were spelt correctly.

On Thursday Sophie dug a deep hole in the garden, in the hole she found wriggly worms and creepy crawlers. When the deep dark hole was dug she planted her favourite tree and crossed her fingers that it would grow big and tall.

Here is our last sentence of the week. This sentence has a mixture of all of the things you’ve looked for this week that need correcting – full stops, capital letters, phonics. Let’s see who’s up for the challenge!

Play a game of rally robin with a family member. How many words can you both remember with the above end blends? Take turns to say a word, you can clap hands so that you remember whose turn it is.

Today we are going to be practicing our tricky words.

Challenge one – Get our your tricky word mat, or make another, and play a game of fastest. Your grown up will say a word and you have to point to it. Take turns, can you find the words faster than your grown up?

Challenge two – Play a game of bingo with your family. Write all of the words down, fold them up and put them in a pot. Ask the people playing to make their own bingo board with 6 words on. You can be the bingo caller or a player it’s up to you!

Challenge three – Quiz time. Ask your grown-ups to read the word and you write them down. See how many words you can spell correctly. If there were some you found extra tricky you know that these are the ones you need to practice.

I hope you all have a lovely weekend! Don’t forget to check back later for our special Friday celebration!
