Reading

Read, read, read! Read signs, read labels, read bedtime stories and please spend 5-10 minutes reading the book sent home with your child. This should be done at least three times during the week.

Please remember it’s not just about reading words:

Make predictions of what will happen next
Build character knowledge including descriptions and feelings
Answer questions using evidence from the pictures or text
Retell and sequence the story
Embellish the story and even create alternative endings.

English

The class have shown a real interest in nocturnal animals, next week we will be finding out more about them.

Please choose one of the animals below to tell a story about.

You could make a little lolly stick puppet or something similar to help you tell the story or use some of the other nocturnal animals as other characters in your story.

Please record the story and send it to s.lavelle@ourladystarofthesea.lancs.sch.uk. We will share them as a class next week.

Physical Development

Fine motor fun! Make or use playdough you have already to have a ‘Dough Disco’. Here is an example… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DrBsNhwxzgc&safe=active Put on a favourite song and enjoy, rolling, pinching, splatting, pressing, squeezing the playdough to the music.

Thank you and enjoy!
