Do the morning register - look at what day it is and and practise writing your name.
Do you remember the writing phrase for today's sound? Can you practise writing it whilst saying the writing phrase?
Todays writing phrase is; Slither down the snake.
You can either ask mum or dad to print a copy for you to write on, or you can make your own register to use at home.

Say the word clearly so that your child can hear it i.e., mat
Build the word. Say “I need…..” - ask your child to tell you the sound that you need and place the card down so that they can see it. Repeat with all the sounds in the word
Point to the sound and say the sounds (m-a-t) then sweep your finger under the word and say the word (mat)
Read the Green word cards (you can write them on paper or a whiteboard or use the teaching video as a reference)
Read the words with the children. Show them the dots and dashes and ask them if they can see any special friends
Ask the children to say the sounds in Fred talk
Say the word out loud running your finger under the word
Review the words with your child and support them to read the words without the dots and dashes

2D Shape Oat Cookies
What you need:
50g ready to eat dried apricots
50g soft butter
50g light brown sugar
2tbsp condensed milk
50g rolled oats
85g self-raising flour
What to do:
Heat oven to 150C/130C fan/gas. Line a baking tray with baking parchment.
Using children's scissors, cut the apricots into small pieces.
Put the butter and sugar in a mixing bowl and beat well with a wooden spoon. Use very soft butter to make it easy for your child to beat the butter and sugar together.
Add the condensed milk , beat well then add the oats and apricots and mix well again.
Add the flour and mix until it starts to disappear - you can use your hands to mix it too.
Bring the dough together into one big ball then break into 6 equal sized lumps ( this ensures the cookies bake at the same time)
Roll each into a ball, then squash into the parchment with the palm of your hand to make the shape of your choice
Bake for 25-30 mins until golden on the edges. Leave to cool on the tray. The cookies will keep in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
