This week Class 1 have looked at the sounds – g   o   c   k  .  They have practised saying the sounds and writing them.

For ‘g’ we say ‘ Around the girl’s face, down her hair and give her a curl.’

For ‘o’ we ‘All around the orange.’

For ‘c’ we say ‘Curl around the caterpillar.’

For ‘k’ we say ‘Down the kangaroo’s body, up his tail and down his leg.’

The children also practise writing their names on a daily basis, you can support them at home by encouraging your child to paint / chalk / write their names on steamed windows.

Over the last 2 days the children have looked at ‘n’ and ‘p’.

They have practised the sound each letter makes and had a go at writing them.

To write ‘n’ we say ‘Down Nobby and over his net’  and for ‘p’ we say ‘ down his plait and over the pirate’s face.’

The children  have played  initial sounds – http://www.crickweb.co.uk/Early-Years.html

and to help with segmenting and blending – http://www.iboard.co.uk/teacher/bictonclass1/1/5   Stage 1 and 2.

Last week the children looked at the sounds for ‘m’ ‘a’  ‘s’   ‘d’ .  This week we have continued to look at these sounds and have also looked at ‘t’ and ‘i’ so far this week.   When forming ‘t’ we say ‘down the tower, across the tower’ and for ‘i’ we say ‘down the body and dot for the head.’

I have attached powerpoint copy of all the letters and sounds that we will be covering over the next few weeks.

We are also practising writing our names everyday.
