Reception - Phonics this week...

Hello everyone,

Another week has passed and we have been learning yet more sounds! The sounds will begin to get more complex as we move into the vowel sounds. This is mainly because lots of them look and/or sound similar. I've also put some more words down below that could have a go at writing at home! Again, these are words we would be expecting children to segment and write themselves in school. 

'ng' - as in strong - life your arms up, pretending you are holding a heavy weight above your head saying ng, ng, ng.

'ai' - as in aim - cup a hand around your ear like you can't hear someone and say ai, ai, ai.

'ee' - as in week - put hands above your head like donkey ears saying eeyore, eeyore, eeyore. This action links with a later sound 'or'.

'igh' - as in night - stand to attention and salute saying igh, igh, igh.

Words to write: 

king

wait

pain

meet

night
