Wednesday
Phonics – Make a collection of your own noise makers. Think about lots of different things that make a sound and gather them together in a box or bag. Use one of the objects to make a sound for others to guess and identify. You could include things like crisp packet, keys, coins in a pot, a rattle or a squeaky toy.
Power of Reading (Literacy) – Listen to the story of Blue Penguin following link

Maths – Using dominoes from yesterday, share out the dominoes. Place one in the middle. Can you match the spots to another domino from your pile. Continue until the first player has used all their dominoes.
