Please find attached the homework sheet for week beginning 23rd Jan. There are less work pages this week as we would like the boys and girls to focus over the next few weeks on learning their letter names and sounds as well as their High Frequency words. They will have a seperate envelope with letter sounds inside and a detailed card explaining what to do. They will also continue to have their HFW's. Please look at the HFW game list which was added to the home learning section. This week try to start with the following game: They will have an extra copy of set 1 words. These can be cut out and kept at home for using in the various games.

Pairs

You need 2 sets of word cards. Pick out the word cards that your child already knows for the first few times you play the game so that they enjoy it and succeed. Then, gradually take out some of the word cards they know and replace them with a number of words they don’t know. Place the 2 sets of word cards you have chosen face down. Turn one card over and say the word, turn another card over and say the word. If they match and you have made a pair you can keep the pair and you have another go. If they did not match it is the next person’s turn. Keep going until all the words have been paired.
