Today the children looked at the sound ‘t’

We practised saying this bouncy sound – t – t – t,  We looked at objects and pictures beginning with the sound.

The children also had a go at writing the letter, saying ‘Down the tower and across the tower.’

Today Class 1 looked at ‘d’.  They practised bouncing the sound – d – d- d .  We looked at objects beginning with d – duck / dog / dinosaur / doll.

When we form the letter we say ‘around his bottom, up his tall neck and down to his feet.’

The last phoneme Class 1 looked at last week was ‘s’.  The class practised stretching out the sound -‘sssss’ then naming objects beginning with the sound.

When writing the letter we say ‘Slither down the snake’

On Friday the Class revised all the sounds covered so far – ‘m’  ‘a’  ‘s’ and practise forming them using a range of media.

Today the children looked at the phoneme ‘a’.  To say the sound we opened our mouths wide and said a – a – a.

To write ‘a’ we say ‘around the apple and down the leaf.’

Today the children in Class 1 began the Read Write Inc phonics program.  We started with the letter ‘m’.

The children practised say mmmm (pressing lips together hard).  To help remember the sound and practise writing it we say ‘Maisie, mountain, mountain.’
