Our story for this week is
Penguin Small

Talk about the pictures and look for words you know as you read it.
What's your favourite part of the story?
Can you describe the characters?
Have a go at drawing a picture of Penguin Small and write the sentence 'I am small'. An adult can write the word 'small' for you to copy.

Use this Powerpoint to remind you how to write the sounds correctly.
Our new word for this week is
got
Start by revising all the words you know so far using your word cards or the Balloon Powerpoint (see week Beginning 4/1/21).
Introduce our new word 'got'.
Can you put it in a sentence? Practice writing it.
Write 'got' on a piece of paper.
Cut the word into 3 pieces g - o - t.
Our new sound 'o' is the middle sound.
Can you put the pieces back in the right order to make the word?
Why not try this with some of the other words you know.
