Literacy   

Phonics and handwriting

This week in Literacy we will look at the suffix ‘ed’ when writing in the past tense. The children will be playing games matching the present tense verb to the past tense verb. They will then have images from the story The Last Wolf, and will write sentences in the past tense describing what's happening.   

Towards the end of the week, the children will practise sequencing the story through a variety of speaking and listening games and using freeze frames to show frozen moments in time from the story.   

Phonics: Revising reading and spelling of words: ccvc, cccvc, cccvcc 

Handwriting: Bottom joins ck
