The 't' and 'i' sound and our tricky word 'he'



The first sound this week is the 't' sound...


The rhyme for this sound is 'Dive down from the sky, bump the line, kick and cross'. You could have a look for some things in your home with the 't' sound in it and see how many you find! 


The song for this sound goes like this: 

 
 
The second sound this week is the 'i' sound.

Our tricky word this week is
 
 he
 
We went on a hunt around the classroom for this word today. Maybe listen out for this word when people are talking or in some storybooks. 

 
Our Aistear theme this week is still 'The Home' and the children have been really getting into this topic; creating fingerprint families and houses, making houses out of blocks, making furniture out of play dough and playing in the 'home' corner at the back of the room!

Welcome back!

Hi Everyone, welcome back to Term 3, I hope you had a lovely break! I was away with the 6th class children for the last three days in Coláiste Uisce and I was told that my class have already been working hard and are  ready for a busy few weeks before we finish for the summer :) Here are some important dates to note for the coming weeks.  Next week - Monday 1st & 2nd Of May the school is closed May 8th the school is closed May 9th is our school tour June 2nd & 5th school is closed June 16th Class Assembly     The homework has changed slightly in that the phonics and sound out words are being replaced by reading from our Wandsville, class readers.  We hope to cover the three readers this term, so that means reading practice every night. It is only one page per night, lots of repetition and learning with the visual help of the pictures so no need to worry.  You will have seen on the note that went home...

'a, a, ants on my arm!'

Today we learned all about the sound... Our rhyme for this sound goes like this - 'Curve around, up like a helicopter, bump, back down and kick.' We made sure to check our classroom for things beginning with the 'a' sound so you could have a look around and see if you can spot anything beginning with 'a' outside school! Here is the song for this sound. We have also been practicing our tricky word, 'the', and trying to find it hiding in different places around the classroom!
