This week children have continued to learn the Phase 3 digraphs sounds and tricky words using these to practice blending and reading words. Children are now writing CVC words, so please continue to support this at home. In Maths we have been subitising using a variety of different of patterns and matching patterns to numerals. We have practised counting along a number track using a dice to tell us how many 'jumps' we need to make. In theme we explored what different types of home we have in the UK and talked about where we live.

Maths - Please cut out the flash cards and use these for subitising games with your child.

- Turn all flashcards upside down and see if your child is able subitise the number as soon as they turn over the card, and match it to the correct numeral.

-Challenge your child to use objects to create the same arrangement on the cards. Encourage them to use spatial language to explain how they see the pattern (e.g. 2 on top and 2 at the bottom).
