RWI reading activities Children learning Set 1 sounds should read the book below this week: Children learning Set 2 sounds should read the book below this week: Children learning Set 3 sounds should read the book below this week: https://www.oxfordowl.c o.uk/api/interactives/292 63.html https://www.oxfordowl.co.uk/a pi/interactives/29291.html https://www.oxfordowl.co.uk/a pi/interactives/29301.html These books are available for free on the Oxford Owl website – all you need to do to access them is to sign up to the website. Each book contains a guide for parents/ carers for how to use the RWI books. These are some of activities you can do with your child using each book: ● Before reading the book, do the speed sounds activity. For this, children point to the sound in each box and say what the sound is. After doing it in order, they can practice again by mixing up the order. ● On the next page of each book, there are the green words and red words for children to practice before they begin reading the story. Ask them to look at each green word and identify if there are any ‘special friends’ in the words (special friends are sounds with 2 or 3 letters). Then they should practice sounding out each green word by saying each of the sounds in a word then putting them together to say the whole word. Red words cannot be sounded out and therefore children will need to repeat saying the word several times to help them remember it.

Suggested Activities for Home Learning – KS1
Year group: Year 1 w/b: Monday 13th July 2020
Further activities and information on useful websites is available on the school website:
These books are available for free on the Oxford Owl website – all you need to do to access them is to sign up to the website. Each book contains a guide for parents/ carers for how to use the RWI books. These are some of activities you can do with your child using each book:
● Before reading the book, do the speed sounds activity. For this, children point to the
sound in each box and say what the sound is. After doing it in order, they can practice
again by mixing up the order.
● On the next page of each book, there are the green words and red words for children to
practice before they begin reading the story. Ask them to look at each green word and
identify if there are any ‘special friends’ in the words (special friends are sounds with 2 or
3 letters). Then they should practice sounding out each green word by saying each of the
sounds in a word then putting them together to say the whole word. Red words cannot
be sounded out and therefore children will need to repeat saying the word several times
Before reading the book you can ask: Prediction: What do you think the story will be about based on the cover picture and title? Read the back cover blurb. Why might Tom Thumb’s mother want to stay at home? Where do you think the special football match will be played? After reading: Do you think Tom Thumb and the king will stay friends? Why? How do you think Tom Thumb feels now he is allowed to play with the other children? What new problems do you think Tom will face?
Don’t forget to read other books you have at home and there are lots of other books for you to read on the Oxford Owl website
Phonics
Sounds and words to practice: Children learning Set 1 sounds should practice these sounds this week:
Children learning Set 2 sounds should practice these sounds this week:
Children learning Set 3 sounds should practice these sounds this week:
Steps to follow when teaching sounds and words (guide for parents/ carers): ● Show your child the sound first (eg ay) and get them to say it out loud several times.
● Then show them the picture which goes with the sound and say the phrase (eg may I play
for the ay sound). Get your child to repeat the phrase several times after you.
● Move on to reading the words containing the sound you have just practiced. First, ask
them to identify the ‘special friends’ and then sound out the word to read it.
● After a while, ask them to ‘fred in their head’ which means sound out each word in
silence in their head and then say the complete word to you.
● Over time, children will not need to sound out the word and should be able to read it
straight away when shown. Flashing words to them will help with this
