How you can help at home:
I will not be giving formal homework for another few weeks - I feel the day is long enough at the moment and the children are tired.  But there are some things you can be doing at home to help your child:
  • Practice writing their name using a capital at the start and lower case letters everywhere else
  • Ask them what sounds the letters c, a and d make and find things beginning with those sounds. Practice forming the letters in their sound copies
  • Find things that are blue, red, green and yellow.
  • Match items that are the same/ same colour/ same size
  • Say the nursery rhymes Twinkle Twinkle, Humpty Dumpty and Jack and Jill with your child.
  • Teach them the correct crayon grip and correct it everytime you see them holding the wrong way.
Some of the things we will be learning over the next 2 weeks:
  • Letters - d (Dippy Duck) and h(Harry Hatman).  Revision of c and a.
  • Sight Words - Danny, Zeb, Mum, and.
  • Colours - green and yellow
  • Maths - matching by size and by colour.  Sorting objects by colour and type.
  • Gaeilge  - "Is mise",(I am) "Dia duit/ Dia is Muire dhuit (hello/ hello to you).  "Tá mé ag siúl/ rith/ gáire/ léim/ caoineadh/ i mo chodladh" (I am walking/ running/ laughing/ jumping/ crying/ asleep).
  • Themes - Starting School and Colour
  • Rhymes - Humpty Dumpty, Jack and Jill, Incy wincy spider
  • Story - Elmer, Brown Bear Brown Bear, Rainbow Fish
