For handwriting this week we are moving on to write ladder letters. These all start at the top and go down. Remember to put a dot on the top for i and j.
Watch BBC Bitesize to see how to write them. Practice the formation each day. Don’t forget the caterpillar letters from last week.

Today we are going to be matching sentences to pictures. We will be practicing reading words and sentences.
Which words can you read in the sentences? If you are gold standard find the phase 2 tricky words and read the words with 3 letters that you can sound out. Try and read the whole sentence. If you are green standard identify the phase 3 graphemes and try and read the sentences on your own.
When you have read the sentences match them to the pictures.
peace at last pictures and sentences to compare to Peepo
