Children should read their reading book at home with an adult EVERY day and regularly practise the sounds and words on the sounds and word mats.
Children should complete their Reading Journals at least once per week with a sentence or two about their reading book or a book you have read to them at home. Please try to read to your child EVERY night if possible, alternatively bed-time stories are available on the CBeebies website – visit Radio Bedtime Stories.

Keep up your 60 active minutes a day using the following websites https://imoves.com/the-imovement https://www.gonoodle.com/
Learning does not have to be found only on these websites, here are a few ideas for Home Learning –
1.Make a book with simple sentences and illustrations – it could be about a wide range of subjects eg animals, cars, the seasons or Superheroes.
2.Write a shopping list
3.Cook together, why not use a child’s cookery book to follow the recipe
4.Make a collage – cut out the pictures (using age-appropriate scissors) from old newspapers and magazines
5.Make a model using old boxes, containers, sellotape and/or glue
6.Look for numbers in the environment – in books, on packets, on phones or in newspapers. Try estimating the number of different objects at home – cups, plates, buttons… then count them. Who made the best estimate?
7.Go on a shape walk in your home – record how many different shapes can you spot in the environment
8.Play a board game, dominoes, a card game or play I-spy using the initial letter sound, not letter name.
9.Play shops – use old food boxes/containers. Decide on the prices and make money out of pieces of old card or paper.
10.Colouring in and handwriting practice
11. Keep a daily diary with a sentence or two about what has happened that day and an illustration
12.Make up a story together – you don’t have to write it down – just think of a character and create an adventure for them.
