Home Learning Summer Week 2 Year 1
Phonics Activities
The activities below are based on the sounds that have been covered in the video Phonics lessons from Letters and Sounds.
There is an activity for each sound, which will give your child the opportunity to apply what they have learnt during the video lesson.
It would be best to do these activities either straight after you have completed the video lesson or at some point during the same day.

Dear Diana,
I know you love my dog Kylie (we call her Kie for short) so I will tell you about her funny day yesterday.
First, Kie tried to eat Dad’s tie! She was in big trouble so we put her in the kitchen. Then, she jumped up and ate the fried egg that was cooking in the pan.
Next, she ate the pie that Gran had made! What a naughty, hungry dog!
When gran came round later, she said “Did you like that pie I made?” I couldn’t lie so I replied “I think Kie liked it!”
Mum told Kie off and she cried. We all felt very sorry for her. Then, Gran spied a bump on Kie’s tummy.
Now we know why Kie was so hungry... She’s going to have puppies!
“It feels like just the other day that Kie was a puppy,” said Gran. How time flies!
Lots of love,
Ellie
