This week in reception the children have been reading the long vowel sound ‘oo’

Here is the shared reader for this week!

This week in reception the children have been reading and writing words and sentences with the long vowel ‘oa’ sound. They have worked really hard to read all red words too! How many can you read at home?

Here is the shared reading text for this week if you would like to have a read at home. 20 additional HOWL points for any children reading this at home !

This week in reception the children have been learning to read and write the ‘igh’ trigraph in words and sentences. Please find the link below to the reading sheet of the week and the shared reading book. Enjoy!

This week in reception the children have been learning to read and write the ‘ee’ sound in words and sentences. Please find the link below to the reading sheet of the week and the shared reading book. Enjoy!

This week in phonics we are consolidating our learning and thinking about the sounds that are new in words such as sh/th/ng. We have also been writing these sounds in words.

Be sure to keep an eye out for your phonics sheet of the week! This will be specific to the stage that your child is at. Please practise blending the green words on the sheet related to the taught sounds and continue to quiz on the red words as this will help your child to progress.

Thank you as always for supporting your children to be the best version of themselves.

Happy New Year! We hope you enjoyed SLC’s and hopefully you will have a clear understanding of the next steps that your children will be making in their learning and how you can support them in this. One great way to support is to practise the phonics homework sheets that we send out weekly.

These will be given out on a Friday and they will be specific to the Step that your child is working on.

I am sure that you are familiar with them but there is an example above just in case.

All children need to be accessing these sheets to ensure that they are having as much reading opportunity as possible.

This week we have been looking at zz/qu/ch.

See if your child is beginning to recognise these sounds in familiar words.

If you have any questions/concerns about how best to support your child then please ask a member of the F2 team.

Last week in phonics we were learning the sounds x/y/z.

Please check in with the phonics homework sheet that was given out on Friday 1st December. This is specific to your child’s learning and will really help to boost their progress if you can practise the sounds with them and have a go at reading the words.

This week is a consolidation week so there will be no new sounds to learn, if you can keep going over the previous taught sounds to ensure that your child is as confident as they can be that would be great.

Thanks
