Brain and Phonics!!

Thanks to everybody who came this afternoon for our brain activities - we know that the children love it when you come in - so thank you for giving up your time!!

In phonics this week we have done the letters i-n-m-d and recapped the tricky word 'the'. We have also been practising blending and segmenting the High Frequency Words (HFW) in-is-it-at. The children are really good at saying the sounds and names of letters - we now need to do lots of practice at writing them!!

Thanks

Mrs Foster and Mrs Ashby

Brain Week!!

Just in case you missed your invite - the children would like to invite you into school on Thursday 15th Oct at 1pm to come and join us for some brain activites. You are welcome to stay until hometime - but if you just want to pop in for an hour or so that is fine too.

We look forward to seeing you there!

Phonics!!!!

Just a quick update......

We have started phonics this week as we said at the meeting - by the end of the week we will have learnt s-a-t-p and the tricky word 'the'. We have also mentioned the names of these letters so you can use those at home to.

We still have technical probs with the colour printer - but I haven't forgotten about the Jolly Phonics handout!

Thanks
Mrs Foster and Mrs Ashby
