This week the children continued their word search for 'l' blends in the stories ' Glen Wit' and 'Glub, Glub'. The long 'e' sound; /ee/ and /ea/ are often confused and are being regularly reviewed along with other long vowel sounds. The children are more attuned to long vowels now and are writing long vowel words with confidence. The children are focusing more on punctuation, verb tenses and descriptive words and are beginning to reflect more on these concepts when writing simple stories. Our Eggbert activities keep the children focused on punctuation and sentence structure. This week in handwriting we had fun writing silly sentences beginning with the letter 'G/g'.
