Phonics focus - 30th April, 2020 - Language lesson.

Today we are going to do some sentence writing using some of the sounds we have been learning this week.

I would like your grown up to read you these first three sentences and then you must write them down - Don't forget your capital letters, finger spaces and full stops! I also wonder if you can put your super digraph spotting glasses on and underline all the digraphs in

these words - 

1. The brown cow.

2. A jar of jam.

3. The coins are in her bag.

Now, I would like your grown up to write down these sentences and I would like you to read them out loud - Can you spot those digraphs?

1. Lorna hurt her arm.

2.She fell down in the park.

3. Can you go to the market for her?

Well done everyone!
