👏 Syllables 👏
I’m going to make things a little bit trickier this week – but don’t worry! I’m sure you will be great!
Some of you might remember talking about syllables in Nursery.
You were great at noticing how many ‘parts’ a word had by clapping while you said it!
Let’s take my name, for example:
Miss👏 Bai👏ley👏
3 claps, so there are 3 syllables in my name!
Try it with your name – how many syllables (or claps) are in yours?
Now you’ve got the hang of this, can you find things around your house that have the same number of syllables as your name?
What about grouping the things you find?
You could make a pile of objects with one syllable, then another with two syllables, then three.
Is there something in your house that has more than 3 syllables?!
..............................................................................................................................
I have also included a game for you to play in your Home Learning Pack for this week.
You need to be a detective!
Have a look at the pictures – can you name the things in the image?
Now, can you figure out which one doesn’t belong there?
If you want a BIG challenge, can you say how many syllables these things have too?!
Let us know on the Class Blog!

What's That Sound?
Once again, Miss Bailey has been hearing noises in her house!
She thinks this one is a bit tricky, but is sure you can figure it out!
Can you think of a place you might have heard this sound before?
Can you make a noise like this using your voice?
Have fun!

Did you guess correctly?
The sound was......
A very old pendulum clock!

👂 Switch those Listening Ears on again! 👂
Last week, we looked at rhyming and (hopefully!) had fun playing a game of rhyming snap!
This week, I’m giving you a trickier challenge! Don’t worry – I think you’ll be great!
We are still going to look at rhyming words – remember; these are words that have the same sound in them.
I have included a rhyming game for you to play (in the files below)
This time, you need to be a detective!
One of the words has been sneaky! It doesn’t belong with the other words, because they all rhyme and this one doesn’t!
Can you find the Odd One Out?
As always – let us know how you get on, on the Class Blog!

What's That Sound?
Yet again, Miss Bailey has been hearing things in and around her house! This time, she heard this noise in her garden!
Can you work out what it could be?
Have you heard a noise like this before? Where did you hear it?
See if you make this noise yourself

👂Switch those Listening Ears on again! 👂
It’s Rhyme Time!
We have used our listening ears to notice sounds around us, and have thought about how the sounds in words are similar or different.
Now, we are going to look at rhyming.
Rhyming can be a little bit tricky – you need to listen very carefully to decide if the sounds are similar, but not the same.
I have uploaded some rhyming word cards.
Can you spot the words that rhyme with each other?
If you like, you can print them out, chop them up and play a game of rhyming word Snap!
(If you cut them out yourself, you can practice your cutting skills too!)
Challenge! If you have managed to find the rhymes easily, have a look around your house.
Can you find objects that rhyme with each other?
What about books you have read? Can you spot any rhyming words in the story? (Julia Donaldson and Dr Seuss books are fantastic for this!)
Have fun! x

😝 Silly Soup! 🍲
Nursery! I need your help!
While I’ve been spending so much time at home, I have been making some really silly soups!
All of the things I have been putting in my soup have been things that start with the same letter!
Here is a picture of some silly soup I made today!
Can you name the items I have put in my soup?
That’s right! There is:
- A Comb
- A Cork
- A Can
- Some Cotton wool
- A Clip
Hmm, what do you notice about these words? Do they sound similar in any way?
Yes! They all start with the same sound!
Can you make your own Silly Soup, with things you can find in your house or garden?
I would LOVE to see it!
Have fun! x

It’s time to get those listening ears working again!
Keep listening out for new sounds (and sounds you already recognise) and notice where and when you hear them.
What might you hear if you were in these places?
Open the window, or go out into the garden – what do you hear here?
Go on a walk with your grown-up – what can you hear here? Are the sounds the same? What is different? Why do you think you can hear different things?
If you manage to go for a listening walk – please remember to show us where you go on our Class Blog!
We love to see where you have been, and we hope you can tell us what you heard!

There are lots and lots of sounds all around us, all of the time! But can you recognise them?
Here are some links to some phonics games:
Questions your grown-up could ask while you play:
What do you think makes a sound like this?
Can you make that sound?
Is the sound loud or quiet?
How does the sound make you feel? – Happy, Scared, Excited?
Can you draw a picture of the sound?
Some questions your grown-up could ask, while you explore the game:
Can you guess what animal makes that sound?
Can you make that sound?
Can you draw a picture of the animal that makes that sound?
What's that sound?
Miss Bailey heard this sound, and recorded it just for you! Can you work out what it is? Let me know in the Class Blog, and tell me where you have heard that sound before!
