Elm Reception
Welcome to Elm - Reception!
Phonics
Phonics should also be carried out everyday. There is a phonics section below to help you carry out phonics.
You should: Go over the Phase 3 letters, sounds and tricky words. Have a think about different words with these sounds in and sentences that have the tricky words you cover (only do 1 or 2 a day).
You could: Write up the words and sentences that you think of and get your child to read sentences you write (that involve sounds and tricky words).
Please make sure you practice all writing with lead in letters!! It is important to match what we teach in school. Unfortunately, for the homework packs, the computer font can't do lead in letters so it is in print.

Our topic for this term would've been "In the Garden". This is great for those with a garden as you can go out and explore, in your own house. If you don't have a garden then explore the park or just admire the scenery on your walk.
You can now email me on our class email address, how exciting! Drop me a message if you have any questions (I'll try to answer the best I can), updates on you, anything you want. I will only reply to your emails Monday-Friday between 9am and 5pm. Hope you're all doing well!
