Today we be learning the alternative spelling patterns for /f/ sound.

/ph/ as in telphone;  /gh/ as in rough;  

Watch the videos below:

Complete the alternative spelling pattern sheet for /f/

Ask an adult to read the instructions to you (see below and the sheet).

1) underline all the different spellings for long /f/ sound in the word list.

Practise reading all the words in the lists (sound out and blend) to yourself first. Then read them to an adult - tick the ones you read correctly.

2) Underline all the different spellings for long /f/ sound in the passage (text) . Then read the text. 

3) In the last box, write a sentence using a word/words from the lists and draw a picture to go with it (illustrate it). 

Challenge: 

Choose a word from each list and write a sentence for each one.

Remember to use joined/best handwriting, a capital letter at the beginning of your sentence, word spaces and a full stop at the end of your sentence.

In Design and Technology, this term we are going to be designing and making Easter cards using a range of sliders and levers.

T- To explore a range of sliders and levers

In today's lesson, we will explore a range of sliders and levers. We will learn how to create different, simple mechanisms whilst gaining an understanding of how the sliders and levers move. This lesson includes some physical activity and equipment beyond pen, paper or pencil.

Watch the video and complete the activities within. Please make sure your child is adequately supervised.

You will require paper fasteners for this lesson.  Hopefully, you will have managed to get some.  If not, you can still have a go at making the sliding activities and instead watch the lever activities and learn how to make them.
