Reception w.c. 18.11.13

Phonics

This week we are revising all sounds learnt so far. We will particularly be focusing on the diagraphs: ch, sh, th, qu, ng & nk. We will be blending cvc words and learning the tricky words: was & my. We will be segmenting using our Fred Fingers to spell words.
Please continue your great support at home by reading the sets of words and books. Also try writing simple cvc words, e.g. 'red' by saying the word a few times, then saying the individual sounds while pointing to fingers r-e-d (one for each sound from left to right) & finishing by writing down each of the letters.

Maths

In maths we are learning about shape. We will be naming and describing 2D & 3D shapes, e.g. circle, triangle, rectangle, square, cube, cuboid, sphere, cylinder, pyramid & cone. We will be exploring a range of everyday objects. Talk with your children about shapes they see at home
 :-)

We hope that you enjoyed the stay and play sessions last week. As always, if you have any questions please feel free to ask.
