SPAG
This week in Spelling, Punctuation and Grammar we are focussing on writing sentences. In the classroom we teach the children to 'think it, say it, write it and check it'. Below are some dictated sentences which will support the children through this process.
Please find some lined paper, or draw lines on plain paper.
Dictated sentences
Celebrate and repeat the above process with the next sentence.
Please ask your child which phonics group they usually attend in school. Complete the sentences for that phonics group.

Mindfulness
Mindfulness focuses on paying attention to the present moment (thoughts and feelings) as well as the world around you. This can improve mental wellbeing. The link below is a guided mindfulness session aimed at children in order to support relaxation and mental focus.
Shared Reading
Shared reading teaches children the comprehension skills shown below and encourages the children to discuss their understanding of the story as well as the language used by the author.
Read the story to your child and click on the question marks to see the questions linked to each page. This story could be read over a few days, discuss the questions and find the answers within the story. If your child is unsure of the answer show them in the text or explain how you know the answer.
