Literacy tasks for week beginning Monday 1st and 8th February 2021

Spelling words:

This week your spelling words are the words dated the 1st and

8th February on your spelling table.

Task:

• Remember to write your words out using the Look,

Cover, Write and Check method. Try to write them out

once a day.

• This week I would like you to write 3 sentences using

your spelling words.

• Choose an activity from the spelling activities grid to

complete.

Ask your family to quiz you on your spelling words on a Friday.

Dictation: Weeks 4 and 5(01/02/21 and 08/02/2021) for dictation.

If possible, could you please read them out to your child

and they are to write down what you have said. This task

is completed once a week. In literacy channel-files-

dictation.

Handwriting: In the Literacy Channel, Files, Week 4 there are two

sheets for your child to practise their handwriting. This

week we will focus on g and h. In week 5 are i and j.

Grammar: Task 1:

Continue to practise with your capital letters and

matching them to their lower case partner. Be creative

with how you practise them!

Task 2:

We are beginning to look at simple sentence

construction. In the week 4 folder-Literacy channel are

two jumbled up sentences sheets. Write these

sentences out correctly using your knowledge of capital

letters and full stops.

Phonics and Tricky words:

• Practise you Jolly Phonic sounds (all 42) using the

letters you currently have at home. Also the new

sounds we have been learning.

• We are learning initial consonant blends: br, cr, dr, fr,

gr, pr, tr. The following is a clip to help you recognise

the sound they make:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cS8bvbyWFZ4

• In the Literacy channel-files-week 3 are worksheets to

cover the sounds fr, gr, pr and tr this week.

• In the above folder is a phonics picture activity. The

children have to identify what the picture is with the

given sound.

• Continue practising your tricky words using your words.

Play games with them. Use some card to make the bang

game to play at home. The rest of the Tricky words can

be found in the Literacy channel-Files-Tricky words.

• In the Literacy channel-Files-Listening skills folder, you

will find a listening skills activity. Adults, read out the

instructions, which you child then follows, colouring in

the part of the picture, the colour instructed.

Reading: In Literacy channel-files-week 4 there is a PowerPoint of

a story called Seren’s seasons. Read the story (Mrs

Lockey is reading the story to you) then do the following:

• Discuss with an adult what happened at the

start of the story.

• Describe what Seren looks like?

• Draw a picture of Seren.

For those unable to access the PowerPoint of the story I

have attached a reading comprehension sheet to read

and complete. (These are in Literacy channel-files-

reading, if anyone wants extra practice)

Writing:

• This week we are looking at the seasons in our maths and we have read a book about Seren’s

Seasons. Now it is your turn to write about what your favourite things are to do in each

season.

For example, In spring, I like to see the flowers grow. They smell lovely.

To be successful:

❖ Colourful picture for each season, showing what you have written.

❖ Two sentences for each season.

Remember:

Capital letters, finger spaces and a full stop!

Use your phonics to sound out your words.
