Over the weekend, please make use of our online reading programme 'Rising Stars'. Your child will be assigned one book over the weekend, along with a comprehension quiz. You can access 'Rising Stars' at www.my.risingstars-uk.com.

                        I have sent you an email with your correct login details.                    

Happy Reading!!

i      n      m      d

Please practise hearing these sounds at the beginning, the middle or end of words:

sun  ant  igloo  mop  sad  dice  tin  pit   Sam  dig  ban  net   pig  pen  nest   dog  mug  duck   pen

Read these words.

Sound out each letter and then blend them together.

i-s   a-n   i-t   i-n

s-i-t    p-a-n    t-i-n 

     m-a-p   p-a-d                     

Handwriting!

I have also added a video showing how to write the letters correctly.

Please don't panic!

Just concentrate with your child writing the letters in their own first name correctly at first.

I will be sending home a laminated name card that you can practise at home with a whiteboard pen. Remember to start at the red dot.

Correct formation is very very important.

If your child learns to write the letters correctly now in Reception class they will find cursive writing in Year 1 very easy.

Have fun writing the letters on a tray in shaving foam, sand, glitter, rice etc.

I would love to see a photo of you having a go on Tapestry!

Thank you to parents who have already done so!

They are great to see!!

A lot to take in!!!! But don't worry - we will get there!!!
