• Phonics – Please recap all of the sounds we have learnt so far and the new digraphs & trigraphs. (It is important for Reception to consolidate their sound recognition for all of the sounds - therefore this week we will not be learning any new sounds.)

Our new sounds - ch, sh, th, ng, qu, ai, ee, oa, igh, long and short oo

Can you hear the sounds in the words and sort them?

Can you write the words?

Can you read the sentence and draw a picture to match?

See the Phonics PowerPoint for all of these activities.

Remember to use these sounds to help you with any new or trickier words in your reading book!

• Handwriting – Join in with, ‘Down in the jungle – Finger gym song’.

These hand exercises will help to strengthen your fingers and will help with your handwriting. 

Handwriting this week will be the letters 'Uu' ‘Vv’ ‘Ww’ ‘Xx’. – Remember to start at the top. 

See the Seesaw video for the correct formations for all of this week’s letters.  

The Humpty Words of the week are – little, there, have, like 

Can I write these words in different colours?

Can I put my humpty words into a sentence?

See how quickly you can write all your Humpty words that you have been practising at home.  Check the words.  How did you do?  Try really hard with any that may be tripping you up!

'The, to, no, I, go, into, you, he, we, she, all, they, my, her, are, me, said, was, were, be'

Do not forget to spot these words in your reading books too!

• Story Activity - This week we are staying with the ‘The Little Red Hen'.

  It is important for your child to know the story inside out, to help them with their writing.

Can I change part of the story of the little red hen?

(See the Seesaw video for an example of this.) 

Maths – 

• Counting Practice – Can I count out loud from 0 to 50? (In 1’s, 2’s and 5’s)

Can I count back from 25 to 0? (In 1’s)

• Consolidation – In Reception we need to revisit and rehearse all number facts to secure understanding.

Can I revisit the number 3? (See sheet attached.)

Can I talk through the number stories PowerPoint with my grown up? (View as a slideshow – Revisiting addition and subtraction questions.)

• Main Focus – Can I listen to the ‘Pattern Fish’ story again? Can I talk about all the different patterns I can see?

Watch the White Rose Maths video and have a go at the activity attached. (Session 5 – Pattern.) 

Topic Time

• French – Today you are going to listen to the story of the 'Little Red Hen' in French.

First, let’s try and learn the words of the animal characters with this song.

It’s about animals who have big noses! Avec un gros nez!

The animals you will need to know for the story are:

Le chat (luh sha) = the cat

Le cochon (luh coshon) = the pig

Le canard (luh canar) = the duck

La poule (la pool) = the hen

Say them a few times, adding an action to help you remember each one.

Here’s the story of Little Red Hen en Francais. Try to follow the story from what you already know. You don’t need to understand every word.

Listen to it first, trying to pick out the names of the animals.

Now draw a cat, pig, duck and hen on four pieces of paper.

Play the story video again and ask your child to hold the right one up as the characters speak.

Can you join in with the “Pas moi!” sentence? Not me!

Merci beaucoup! A la semane prochaine. See you next week.

Reception Story Time

Get yourself a blanket and enjoy today’s story after working so hard all day. 

The story will be posted to Seesaw.

Have a lovely day Reception, we cannot wait to see your learning on Seesaw. J
