In phonics this week we have received a letter from the Phonics Monster for the brilliant use of segmenting and blending when reading. The children have really enjoyed practicing all the different sounds and tricky words. Following on from the conversations I had at parents evening meetings I have sent home the Phase 2 and 3 sound mats for the children to use for their writing and reading. I have also included a link to a video on Youtube to help with the correct pronunciation of the sounds the children will be learning.
In our outdoor learning activity this week we have begun exploring autumn and the change in weather. The children have really enjoyed using this activity to develop our art lesson of creating a picture using leaves.
I hope you have wonderful half term and get lots of rest.
