Today the children looked at the letter ‘u’.  They practised saying this bouncy sound and looked at pictures beginning with ‘u’.

The children  then had a go at forming the letter, when we write ‘u’ we say ‘Down and under the umbrella, up to the top and down to the puddle.’

All letters and sounds covered can be found here:

Today the children in Class 1 looked at the letter ‘k’.  They practised saying this bouncy sound k-k-k-k.  They looked at pictures and objects beginning with ‘k’.  The children then had a go at forming the letter. When we write the letter ‘k’ we say ‘Down the kangaroo’s body, tail and leg.’

Today the children looked at the sound ‘O’.  We practised saying this bouncy sound – o-o-o-o.  The children looked at pictures and objects beginning with ‘o’.

Finally we practised forming the letter.  When we write ‘o’ we say ‘All around the orange.’

What a busy week!   We have learned 3 new sounds – n, p and g.   Ellie visited the class on Wednesday to do Music, the children explored different ways to play the drum and make loud and quiet noises.

In Maths we have looked at 2d shapes, made shape pictures, gone on shape hunts and practised counting as high as we can.

Our Nursery rhyme was Rock a bye baby, this linked to our theme of babies this week and people who we love and who are special to us.

In PE the children enjoyed using the balance bikes and have had plenty of outdoor physical development opportunities.
