Room One's Letter of the Week is... Ii
We have learnt all of the letters of the alphabet and are back at the beginning. We use the Jolly Phonics order to teach our letters. So we don't teach the letters/sounds A, B, C etc.
The order we use is...
s, a, t, i, p, n
ck, e, h, r, m, d
g, o, u, l, f, b
ai, j, oa, ie, ee, or
z, w, ng, v, oo(book), oo (moon)
y, x, ch, sh, th
We use this order so that we can learn to quickly write small words like sat, sit, pit, pin, tin etc. Each child has a sounds booklet to practice at home. We also use this video clip at school each day to help us.
Each week we focus on a letter/sound to learn, read and write about. We do this through phonics, singing, reading stories, handwriting, alphabet activities, letter writing, play dough, Language Experience, make and do and lots of other things.
This week for Language Experience we are making something beginning with Ii. Can you think of something that begins with Ii.
This week we are learning about the letter Ii. We will learn its name, its sound, how to write and recognise it and about some things that begin with this letter.
The teachers love planning exciting learning experiences to help us learn our letters.
At the moment we LOVE alphabet songs so Miss Collins has posted a couple of videos/songs about the letter Aa that we might like.
