Weekly Learning Activities (Week 3 - 20/04/20)

Hi Reception, so we are now in Summer Term 1. We can't believe it either! Here are some activities to keep your learning ticking over whilst we are apart. You should be able to do these independently but it is also nice to work with a sibling or parent if possible. Please use the RWI resources below for additional worksheets.

Weekly Learning Activities (SPRING 2)

Dear Parents / Carers, please find below weekly activity grids to support your child with their distance learning. Ideally one activity per grid per day, but we know that this may not always be possible. A happy, safe family environment comes first and if your child accesses some of these activities then great! You can share any learning taking place with us on 2simple and we will send a message back to you and your child. Wishing you all the best in these strange and trying times, Mrs Ajayi & Miss Waddington.

How to write sentences

This is how we write sentences in Reception. *Rehearse the sentence first. *Count the words in the sentence. *Tricky words should not be sounded out. *Other words should be sounded out using 'Fred Fingers' to support. *Remember to use finger spaces between words. *'Dots and dashes' show single sounds and 'special friends' - digraphs (e.g. ch, sh, th) and trigraphs (e.g. igh)
