Practice your sounds, watch a phonic video or read your phonic book every day. Please write in your reading record book at least 5 times per week. These will be checked on a Thursday. Practice counting outloud with your child to at least 30. Count as you walk along the road or up to bed! Ask your child what would be 1 more / 1 less than a number to 10? Can you show me that on your fingers? Play games where you put 5 toys under a cloth and take some out. Can your child tell you how many are still hiding? Play bunny ears- Can your child show you 5 fingers in total using 2 hands. | |
