Being thankful
Gerald Giraffe is thankful that he could celebrate Eid with his family...
What are you thankful for?
mark making
Do the morning register - look at what day it is and and practise writing your name.
Choose your favourite words - can you blend the sounds and form the letters.
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.
morning fun
Can you retell the story of The Little Red Hen? You might find these props useful..

Blending with Speed Sound Cards
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
riddle of the day
literacy
Learning Objective:
To be able to use your imagination and knowledge of story structure to change a familiar story
Learning activity:
Over the last two weeks, we have been learning about the story of The Little Red Hen and The Enormous Turnip
Use one of these stories or any one of your favourite stories and retell it to your family but try to change the characters, story line or ending of the story
You can ask someone in your family to film your story and share it with us on the shared photo album
If you know another language, why don’t you retell the story in your home language to make it extra fun?
some extra fun ;-)
Help the Little Red Hen finish the words on the eggs so that she can put them in her nest.
There is something special about these words..... Can you tell what?
