Sleepy Sloth is learning all about the letter Jj this week! Today he has made a Jj crown, colouring in each of the pictures and practicing writing the 'j' words as well!

​This week's letter of the week is the letter Jj. There are so many ideas and activities that I have included throughout the reading, writing and maths section that are hands-on or also relate to this week's letter. But there are also heaps of extra Jj developmental activity ideas at the bottom of the page.

Sleepy Sloth went for an INSECT hunt outside in the garden. He saw some flies, a ladybug and a bee. What insects can you find in your garden?

​This week's developmental activities based around the letter "Ii" include a variety of scavenger hunts. An INDOOR hunt, an INVENTORS hunt and Sleepy Sloths challenge of looking for INSECTS outside.

Snap!

Another fun maths game to play, helping with number recognition, is snap. 

Board games and card games are great ways to bring in maths skills in fun and family friendly ways. Counting forward and backwards, number recognition and adding are just the start of skills that take place. There are plenty more card and dice game ideas on the At Home Learning page. But any card and board games you know and enjoy as a family are great learning tools at this time.

Epic! (App and Online Reading)

​Sleepy Sloth enjoys reading through books on Epic! and sometimes even having stories read to him.

Another app or online option that can help with reading is 'Epic! reading' The children have used this a little bit in class during reading time. Stories can be read aloud to the children as well as some books I have assigned to them personally that they can have a go reading themselves. Download the app or go to www.getepic.com and login by clicking 'parent' and using your email and password - emails to set this up were sent on Friday 27 March.

Sentence of the Day

​Instead of writing in his writing book, Sleepy Sloth got out his whiteboard pen and wrote a sentence of the day. Finding words and letter-sounds to help him.

Do a fun activity together - like building a hut out of blankets and sheets in the lounge, then read books, play games and puzzles inside - then write a sentence or story about the experience!

Books Galore!

​Sleepy Sloth picked a pile of books off the book shelf this morning and Possum (the kitten) has been reading to him.

​Reading should be enjoyable!! As well as having your child read to you, make sure you are reading books to them that they want to hear too. As they develop their reading skills they will start reading along with you with their eyes trying to match words they know.

Car-parking Sight Words

​Sleepy Sloth LOVES playing with the cars so this parking lot that Mrs Coe made today was super fun.

As your child drives around the cars, makes up stories and uses their imagination they can practice saying their sight words by saying which word they have 'parked' on.

​Whiteboard pens out again! Sleepy Sloth chosen 6 sight words to practice and is having a race to see which one will win!

​Use words your child knows already or those they are still learning and get them to say the word before writing it down.
