If you have any questions regarding the tasks set, please email your child's class teacher using the following email reception@st-pauls.lancs.sch.uk Teachers will endeavour to reply to every parent as soon as possible.

Phonics
Keep reading phase words attached. Please work though them a page a day. Children need to decode and blend them together as quick as they can. Every bit of practise helps.
This week’s game: Phonics bloom – Yeti
https://www.phonicsbloom.com/uk/game/yes-no-yeti?phase=3
When you start the game you will see the Yeti’s question at the top of the page. On one side of the Yeti is the word “Yes” and on the other side is the word “No.” The child reads the question by sounding out and blending the words, and then answers the question by clicking on either “yes” or “no.”.
Literacy
This week it is related to the story Snail and the Whale. It would be great to see some evidence of the different activities.

Our reward system DoJo's
Children love being praised and encouraged and also enjoy a visual reminder of how well they are doing in class. Do Jo's are points that are counted on the interactive whiteboard. Do Jo's are rewarded for good work, effort, manners, excellent reading, being kind to others and many more.
Do Jo's can also be taken off the score if children don't follow school rules.
The challenging target is to receive 20 in a week. Children who achieve this get a reward from the treasure box !
