This week we have concentrated on the sounds:

oi – spoil the boy

oy – toy for the boy

The children have continued to practise sounds from set 1 and 2.

You will have noticed as well as bringing home a school reading book the children have also brought home words that are linked to their group text.  These are for you to practise with your child and also give your child an opportunity to discuss the ditty or story they are doing in class.

This week we have continued to revise all of our Set 1 sound and the words they form.

Set-1-Sounds-PowerPoint

We have continued to revise all sounds taught.  The children are working hard at segmenting and blending and this is improving their confidence when reading.

This week we have focused on:

oo – poo at the zoo and oo – look at the book

ir- whirl and twirl and er – a better letter

ar – start the car

The children have verbally formed sentences using words with these sounds in and many have independently written their own sentences.

This week the children have looked at:

igh – fly high

aw – yawn at dawn

are – care and share

ow – blow the snow.

They have also looked at ee / ea sound  – we found lots in our story Jack and the Beanstalk.
