Autumn 1 - Tiger and Panda Class Weekly Update
Week 3
This week in Panda and Tiger Class we started Read Write Inc. Phonics. The children have been learning the sounds ‘m’, ‘a’, ‘s’ and ‘d’. Please practise these sounds and writing the letters with your child. For example, ‘a’ saying ‘aaapple’ and when writing the letter saying the mnemonic phrase ‘around the apple, down the leaf’.
We also introduced our new topic this term, ‘Marvellous Me’. We discussed the meaning of the word ‘Marvellous’ and this was also our word of the day! When your child is at home, please do ask them what the word of the day was and see if they can remember the meaning of the word.
The children began learning a new poem ‘I am Rose’ and practised orally rehearsing the poem using Talk for Writing actions.
In our magic maths lessons, we are focusing on recognising numbers 1-10.
Please check the website for weekly updates.
