PhonicsThis week I would like you to play the I spy game all week (separate document) to recap some sounds and support the learning of some new sounds.This link is to help you (parents/ carers) with the sounds so that you are sounding them in the same way we do at school https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IwJx1NSineE

Reading Before you read this week’s book Little red riding hood. Take a look at the front cover…

Ask your child what they think the book might be about? Why? Encourage answers that mean your child has used what they can see in the picture to guide their answer. Please read the PDF version of little red riding hood. If this is difficult for any reason please talk about the pictures of the story. Key vocab to focus on: Forest- a large groups of treesBasket- a type of bag made out of a type of wood Nightgown- an old fashioned word for pyjamas that look like a dressWoodcutter- a person that cuts down treesLiteracyWhat are your favourite foods? What would you give grandma to make her feel better? Can you draw a picture of the things you would give to Grandma. I wonder if you write your name on your picture?
