Morning Prayer – Hail Mary

Can you say the months of the year?

How many months in a year?

How many days in a week?

What day is it?

Practise saying the sounds everyday with your child

 a_e   i_e    o_e    u_e

No new sound

SOUNDs to practise today:  a_e   i_e    o_e    u_e

These split sounds are hard to remember, so please revise these sounds.

Make a list of words under each sound

Handwriting – practise writing each letter of the alphabet.

It is so important that children form the letters correctly.

Air writing – writing letters in the air is fun for children and helps them visualise each letter.

Numbers

• Count 0-40
• Practising writing the numbers 0-40 correctly
• Practise putting numbers in order
  Number handwriting – please simply practise writing the numbers correctly.

4. What animal did you keep? Can you write sentences to tell me about why you picked that animal?
5. OR do you have a pet? Can you write sentences to tell me about your pet and why you like them?
6. Adults can write the red words ‘they’ ‘so’ and ‘was’ on a piece of paper to help you.
