New sounds and tricky words for December!

Happy December everybody!
The children are doing very well with their sounds and blending and we will be going over these during the next couple of weeks.

Our first sound this week is 'f'.
 


 

The formation rhyme for this sound is; 
'Curve at the sky, turn and dive down, bump the line and cross.'

The next sound we will be learning is 'b'
 
 
The formation rhyme for this sound is; 
'Dive down, swim up to the middle, curve around and stop.'

We have two tricky words this week so just do your best to learn both of them. They are:  
      are    
    
  all 

Please make sure to practice all of our tricky words we have learned so far and please complete the 'f' and 'b' pages in the Sound Book as well as the worksheets.

We are also learning about the '_et' word family. 
Can you read these 'et' family words?

Some important information!

Hello everyone, Just a few reminders and notices for you all. On Monday morning the Junior Infants will start lining up at the numbers '1' or '2' in the basketball court.
