Homework Note Week 28
Post date: 09-Apr-2018 22:22:52
Dear Parents,
I hope everyone had a great Easter break. Our Aistear theme is now moving to “Vikings”. If you have any items that would help us play, please send them in. Hurling will continue on Tuesdays and Thursdays. I always need absence notes for any day your child is not in school. We must record a reason for all absences for the department. If I have an absence and no reason please send me in a note for the following date(s) ___________________________. Also a gentle reminder if you have not sent in the €30 for the Art/Craft/Library/Stationary costs. All children have used their stock of whiteboard markers, glue, pencils and rubbers at this stage.
Word Wallet activities.
This week we are learning words that have the “aw” spelling that sounds like the /or/ in /ee//or/ - the sound the donkey makes!
1. Ask the children to make a word or words using the sounds (green cards) they already have.
2. Try to make these words
3. saw, paw, jaw (Mon)
4. thaw, lawn, draw (Tues)
5. crawl, prawn, straw (Weds)
6. yawn, jigsaw, seesaw (Thurs)
7. See if they can make other words with a “aw” but with the /or/ sound.
8. We are learning/revising the Red tricky words.
