Homework for week of the 19th October

Homework for the week:

Monday: None (teacher on a course day)

Tuesday: b

Wednesday: j

(Myself and Niamh have decided to skip the double letter sounds for now and complete all the single letter sounds first, so you may need to skip on a few pages in the homework copy.)

Thanks everyone!

Homework

Hi everyone,

The homework sounds for this week (week of 5th October) are:

Monday - d
Tuesday - g
Wednesday - o
Thursday - u

As always, if you could revise all the previous sounds every night too that would be great. Little and often is the key to letter recognition!

Thanks.
