Hey everyone,

Last week before a well-earned half term.

Please know that you are all doing an amazing job. Keep the pictures and e-mails coming and stay safe.

Miss Loney xx

Phonics/sound lesson

Now that we have completed set 1 we would normally use the last week before half term to assess the children to see how much they have retained so this week is a slightly different format for home learning. Please don’t worry about assessing/testing your child, we will do that when we get back together but for now please;

· watch the you tube video which allows the children to practice all the sounds they have learnt so far

· watch 1 ‘word time’ reading video each day

· watch 1 ‘word time’ spelling video each day

· play a phonics game.

Extra information

In addition to the phonics lessons please watch one of the following video’s below each day with your child; you will need a pen and paper to hand. During the blending lessons please encourage your child to segment and blend the words along with Rosie AND write the words. I have also added 2 red word lessons. These are words which we cannot Fred talk, we call these words tricky words, and they are words we just need to know. Have a go and reading and writing them.

Topic/challenge

This week looks a little different. There are 3 different special events happening in February which we would learn about in school: Chinese New year, Valentines Day and Pancake day. Please have pick and choose the activities your child would most enjoy.

Watch this short cbeebies video following Abbie and her brother as they clean the house in preparation for the Chinese New Year:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c8ssHXZ9_qU

Maybe clean your house ready for the new year and put on your best clothes…remember to wear something red…it’s a lucky colour.

Watch this short video as Abbie takes to the streets of Liverpool with her family for a parade and firecracker display:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1cRMRp9-Z08

Abbie gives her mum a good luck message …maybe you could have a go at writing your grown up a good luck message in Chinese?

During Chinese New Year celebrations, children are sometimes given envelopes with money inside! With an adult, look at some coins and see if you can see any numbers on them. What numbers can you see? What shape are the coins? What colours are they?

You could make your own lucky Chinese envelope and maybe your grown up might put some lucky coins in there.

Order numbers 1-5 or 1-10 on this game: https://www.topmarks.co.uk/ordering-and-sequencing/chinese-dragon-ordering
