We have had such a fun week in Foundation Stage thinking about our birthdays! The children have enjoyed making play dough cakes, paper chains, party hats and balloons. They also loved listening to the story ‘Kipper’s birthday’ by Mick Inkpen. All of the children are working hard during their phonics lessons. In maths, FS2 are learning how to find 1 more and 1 less than a given number.

What are we working on?

We have been continuing to work on reading and writing CVC words. Many of us can now write our names without our name cards and we have been practicing copying less familiar words. We had a go at writing a birthday card for a friend. Look at some of our super writing!

Reading

In our phonics lessons, some of us have been reading CVC words, using our Fred talk and blending skills. Of those children who have started taking blending books home to read with their parents, 66% read 3 times or more this week. Great job everyone!

What’s coming up?

Birthdays!
