This week children have now completed all Phase 3 digraphs, trigraphs, and tricky words . We are using these to practice blending and reading words. Children have continued writing CVC words, so please continue to support this at home.

In Maths we have been looking at the composition of 5. We have been using the 5 speckled frogs, and our fingers to represent this.

Please encourage your child to represent compositions of 5 on one hand (fingers up are frogs on the log, fingers down are those swimming), and use the speaking frame "5 is made from ... and ..." (5 is made from 3 and 2)

In theme we have continued to think about different homes, and materials for homes.
