Name Writing
- Practise writing your name everyday.
Phonics
We are learning to read and write a different letter each day:
Monday - i
Tuesday - n
Wednesday - p
Thursday - g
Friday - o
Watch the video on espresso about the letter.
Now tell your grown-up some words that start with today's sound. Finally have a go at writing the letter a few times.
Grown-ups: Every day, revisit the previous sounds that they have learnt.
Topic
This week we will continue with our theme 'From Head to Toe'. This theme will explore all of the amazing things our bodies can do. We will learn about our body parts and what we do to keep our bodies healthy.
Activities:
- Explore the 'Ourselves' area on espresso. The videos and activities teach use about our bodies, keeping fit and eating healthy food.

- Design a healthy meal with a grown up. Think about what foods are good for us. It is ok to have a treat sometimes but only if we are eating a healthy, balanced diet.
- While you are staying at home, it would be great if you could do some exercise that can be done easily at home. So let's try some cosmic kids yoga! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LhYtcadR9nw
Writing
Draw a picture of yourself thinking about your whole body from your head down to your toes. Now have a go at writing some labels. Use 'Fred talk' to help you. For example Fred talk 'leg'. This means say the sounds in order counting the sounds on your fingers. Then write the correct letters down. 'l_e_g leg'
