• Remember to use ‘Inference’ when discussing books with an adult. Plus, the adult helping you with your reading can use ‘Guided Reading Questions: Level 1’ / ‘Reading Strategies’ in your Pupil Support Book.

• Revise the following: author, illustrator, front of the book, back of the book, title, blurb, spine. Continue to focus on recognising the difference between a letter, a word and a sentence plus recognising the difference between a line of writing and a sentence. How many capital letters can you find? Can you retell your stories from start to finish in your own words? Continue to read with expression.

• Ask an adult to read 'Grandad’s Farm' story. (See link below). This links to our new WAU topic on ‘The Farm’. Try to retell the story in your own words. Talk about the jobs that Jaz had to do. What jobs do you do around the house? What products did Grandad sell in his farm shop? Talk to an adult about the meaning of these words: ‘coop’, ‘calmly’, ‘free-range’, ‘fertilser’, ‘crops’, ‘Friesan cows’, ‘cultivator’, ‘laden’ / ‘toiletries’. What did Jaz like best of all about her trip to the farm? 

• Try to think up your own sentences about the story using the word mat below. How many sentences can you write?
• Remember to start each sentence with a capital letter, use finger spaces between each word and finish with a full stop. Read your sentences to an adult. Give yourself a star and put your thumbs up! I love reading your sentences and seeing your drawings. I am so proud of you! Please continue to send in more.

LETTERS, SOUNDS, WORDS AND PICTURES 

• Sing your alphabet.

EXPLANATIONS / INSTRUCTIONS

This week ask an adult to help you to read the instructions to make a cucumber sandwich. Maybe you could make your own cucumber sandwich. If not, don't worry, what I'm looking for, is for you to explain to your family how to make one. Enjoy!
