Little Wandle Presentation


THIS WEEK'S LEARNING - 18th - 22nd September

Phonics - This week the children have learnt the following phonemes - s a t p.They have been playing lots of oral blending games, e.g can you n-o-d your head?  Can you r-u-b your tummy? What sound does a d-o-g make?

Maths - This week the children have been recognising patterns on dice, dominoes and playing cards to subitise (saying the correct amount without counting). Children have described what they can see and whether the patterns were different or the same.

Theme - We have been settling into our new class and learning the routines and rules of school.


HOMEWORK

Friday 27th September 

Phonics - See 'Little Wandle' home learning sheet in book bag.

Maths - Add playing cards (Ace to 5) to the memory cards from last week. Children pick a card, subitise and then use any objects such as pebbles, pasta, buttons, Lego to re-create the pattern.

Please read your child's sharing book with them, which they will bring home on Friday and keep for a week. Children will get a new sharing book every week so please ensure you send this back in their book bag the following week.

This week your E-Collins log in will come home this week for you to log in and set up your account. Books will be assigned on Friday 13th October.

We will be sending home a name writing template. If your child cannot write their name independently with the correct letter formation then please use this weekly at home to support them with this task. Please refer to the Little Wandle Formation sheet that was given out in your phonics pack for the formation phrases.


Friday 22nd September 

Phonics - See 'Little Wandle' home learning sheet in bookbag.

Maths - Play 'Matching Memory Game' sheet sent home in book bag. Cut out the cards and turn the cards face down. Take turns to find the matching amounts. Children should begin to be able to instantly recognise and say the correct amount without counting the dots or objects individually. Support your child if they do not recognise the number pattern instantly.

Please read your child's sharing book with them, which they will bring home on Friday. Children will get a new sharing book every week so please ensure you send this back in their bookbag the following week.

Friday 15th September

Please send in a family photograph into school for our Theme work 'Me and My Family'. This can be a actual photograph or a printed photograph. This photograph will be used in a whole class display.
