Term 4 - February 22nd 2021
Hello St Bernadette's
Hope you are all keeping safe and had a super half term. I am looking forward to seeing all your fabulous home learning.
We have given you some lessons to complete each day (please see below) Please take a picture of your work and try and email it over to your class email address at the end of each day so that we can have a look at and respond to your wonderful work. Remember you don’t need to print all of the information and activity sheets out, you can just use the information and respond on paper.
Please remember it is vitally important that your child reads every day, sounding and blending words. Sound out words, and they have to guess what you are saying are really good ways of helping your child hear and blend words together e.g. please pass me the

If you have any questions, then please also email the class email address where we will be happy to help you.

Phonics and Reading Websites
Please log in to our reading scheme called Bug Club. The website is: www.activelearnprimary.co.uk
The scheme has a comprehensive collection of high quality reading books for the children to read at home. In your child’s reading record, there is a login in and password so your child can access this resource at home. If you have any issues with your child’s login and/or password, please speak to your child’s teacher.
There are lots of useful websites with phonics information and games. Here are a range of different ones you could use at home:
DfE letters and sounds home learning lessons - daily lessons on YouTube
The Letters and Sounds website has lots of information, resources and games linked to each of the phonics phases.
Oxford Owl has a whole selection of free eBooks, some with linked activities. These are banded according to age group.
We like Mr Thorne does Phonics. This is a link to his YouTube channel so be aware there may be adverts/videos may auto play.
Phonics Play has a selection of free and fun resources you can use at home with your child. It also gives you the option to create your own account on the website however this will need to be paid for.
