Good Morning, Reception.

Well done for all of your hard work in phonics this week.

Today, we will be practicing using the tricky words and the digraphs ‘ch’, ‘sh’, ‘th’, ‘ng’ and ‘qu’ sounds for reading and writing sentences.

Can you read these words?  You could play the game or take turn with a gown up, reading the words.

Can you read these sentences?

Can you write the sentences, without looking at them, when an adult reads them to you? Don’t forget your finger spaces!

This is a lot of writing at one time, so I would recommend that you do two or three at a time and then come back to it later.

Challenge: Write two questions for me by sounding out words and using your tricky words.

I am looking forward to seeing your writing today.

Love from Miss Siswick

PRINTABLE VERSION:R Phonics Thurday

It would really help me if you could upload photos  straight to the media file (instructions are here: sharing photos and files) as they get to me more quickly and easily as they don’t have to go via the office and my e-mail. Please can either your child’s name or face (but not both) be visible on any photos. Many thanks.

    I played with the tricky words game. It was fun.

    I do like shell fish.
    I can sing a song. I love singing.

  7. Good morning,
    Sibylle likes the game, we had to repeat it several times! ?
    I asked her if she can try to write smaller than usual and now we need a magnifying glass to read the first sentence!
    Her question are (written by Sibylle)
    – can you chop quick as a chef ?
    – do the fish quack ?

  8. Miss Siswick says:

    Well done, Sybille. No. I cannot chop as quickly as a chef! No. Fish do not quack!
    Can you send me a photo of your writing?

  9. Miss Siswick says:

    Great writing, Sybille. The writing in the first sentence was a bit small! The last five sentences were the perfect size.
    Keep practicing ‘was’ and ‘my’.

    Hello miss Siswick,
    We read all the words and the sentences on our own, we wrote down 2 sentences and will write the rest in the afternoon, it is too much to do in one go!
    Sent you a picture.

  13. Miss Siswick says:

    Well done, Philippa. Great writing. I agree that it is better to have a rest and carry on later.

  14. Hi. Rocco could read the words and the sentences well, although he struggled with ‘liquid’ and ‘with’ . We will send the pic of the sentences over. He needs help to spell correctly without copying the words. He can do some of them but he does needs prompting/ help with quite a few.

  15. Miss Siswick says:

    Well done, Rocco. Keep practicing sounding out and spelling the words. Keep looking for the tricky words when you are reading.

  16. Miss Siswick says:

    My answers to your questions:
    Yes. I do like pizza?

    I run very slowly!
    I like flowers very much, thank you.
