Hope you all had a nice long weekend!
This week in literacy we are continuing to look at rhyme and have covered “an” and “en” sounds. The children have had homework based on these. We are also looking at poetry writing and will be looking at acrostic poems tomorrow.
In numeracy we having been looking at subtraction and counting backwards from 20 to 0. This is something that many children are finding difficult so would be good if children could continue to practice this at home.
Tomorrow, we will have a workshop from the SSPCA. This will be from 9.00 9.30 for primary one to three.
Homework
- Reading- new reading books were issued yesterday, children should continue to read these every night.
- Common words- this week the common words are put, saw, no and go. These are in the green jotters.
- Words in tins- children should continue to practice these.
- Rhyme – both tasks were issued on paper and should be completed in green jotters.
an- Yesterday our rhyming sound was “an”, can you think of 6 of your own “an” rhyming words and make a sentence using at least two of them. Please use your green jotters for this.
Example- The man was in the van.
en- Today our rhyming sound was “en”, can you think of 6 of your own “en” rhyming words and write these using rainbow or bubble writing. Please use your green jotters for this.
Thank you for your cooperation
Miss Cummings.
