2A Phonics

We've been enjoying some outdoor learning this week in 2A. We were practising the /ear/ trigraph in our Phonics lesson!

Phonics Friday

Thank you so much to all the grown ups who were able to join us for our first Phonics Friday! The children loved showing their adults all their learning about s and a. We already can’t wait for next week! 

Phonics Heroes

In Reception we are loving our phonics lessons! The children are doing great at learning the sounds and beginning to write and read them in simple words. They are excited to start phonics in the morning and are happily doing these activities in their independent time too. Superstars!

1L's World Book Day

1L celebrated Work Book Day dressed as various characters. Can you guess who we are?

Our reading corner is used everyday!

1L love reading and using the cosy cushions, cuddly teddy bears and being in the cool castle.

Where do you read with your children at home? 

Our Super Reading Corner!

Today 1L enjoyed having a lovely reading time in our new, super reading corner.

It was great to watch children get excited and enthusiastic about reading books.

They read brilliant and shared books nicely.

Keep it up 1L and I am really glad you like the new corner :)

Listening games in Reception

Take a look at our hard working bunnies using their listening ears this week in Phonics. We have been   guessing the animals hiding in the box just by listening to the noise they make, we have chosen the right musical instrument by following their sound and used our big listening ears on a walk outside.

Phonics

Last week in Reception we started learning the letter sounds in phonics. The children have done brilliantly with learning to write the letters and use the sounds in words. On Friday we had 'Phonics Friday' where we taught some of our grown ups the sounds that we learnt this week. Thanks to all who attended it was a great turn out and great to see you all joining in! 

Phonics Easter Egg Hunt in Year 2

We had a ridiculously fun time in Year 2 having an Easter Egg Hunt in Year 2. Eggs were hidden around the classroom, and we had to find them. Inside each egg was a grapheme that we had to recognise and write words with those graphemes. As an extension activity, we then hd to use these words in a sentence using some of the skills that we have learnt in Year 2. Some sentences included exclamation sentences, the -er and -est sentences, adverbs and similes.

Phonics Friday in Reception

Today in Reception we had our first Phonics Friday session. We would like to thank our grown ups from both RG and RS who stayed for a little time this morning so we could teach them the letter sounds we learnt this week. We taught them the sound the letter makes, the action we use to remember it and the way we write it. We hope to see lots of grown ups every Friday so we can keep showing off our super phonics skills! 

Phonics in Reception

We have had our very first phonics session this morning. We played 'listening games' in small groups.

Phonics Friday in Reception

 We have been doing lots of fun activities with Mums and Dads on Friday mornings. Look at us reading!

Phonics Fun!

We are feeling very clever today in year R having finished learning the first set of letter sounds! We will now be playing lots of games and doing activities to practise using these sounds in reading and writing. We started today by playing a 'run to' game outside which we loved. We ran to the sound we could hear and then put these sounds into words, well done reception!
