You could write some of your own sentences using contractions.

Then have a go at the Workbook activity on pages 67-69. Use your everyday objects from yesterday to help you name and describe the 3D shapes.

Additional Reading Material

These materials consists of activity cards. Each activity card contains a short extract of age appropriate text for your child to read and some questions you could ask to check their understanding. Please do not use these as written comprehension tasks, we will set two of these a week in addition, use them as additional reading material if you wish to.
