Reading/ Phonics

CVCC words are written using the sequence Consonant, Vowel, Consonant, Consonant. The images show ‘belt’, ‘sink’, ‘pond’ and ‘hand’. Encourage your child to describe what they can see in each picture. Then support your child to write the CVCC words by segmenting and saying each sound aloud, using ‘Fred fingers,’ and then writing it down. Each word is made up of four sounds.

ask them to describe what they can see. Can your child draw a line from each word to the corresponding picture?

Ask your child to estimate how many apples are on each tree. Cover the tree up after a few seconds to make sure they are estimating and not counting! Ask them to record their estimation, reminding them that it needs to be a “sensible guess.” Then ask your child to count how many apples are on the tree to see how close they were to their estimate.

make sure their counting is accurate.

What you will need: Cotton wool balls. Glue. Shapes pre-drawn onto paper.

Activity Guide: Children are given a piece of paper with pre-

drawn shapes on, for example, a triangle, square and circle.

Can they name and describe the different shapes?

Children then pull the cotton wool balls apart and stick it onto the inside of the shape using glue.

The cotton wool must be placed carefully so that the outline of the shape is still visible, but the centre is ‘fluffy’.

Repeat the activity with the rest of the shapes.

Questions you could ask your child during the activity:

Do any shapes have the same number of sides?

Which shape has the most/least sides? Were any shapes easier to fill than others?

Further Support and Ideas: Children could try to draw their own shapes

to then fill with cotton wool. Children could use other resource to fill their

shapes, for example, glitter.
