For phonics today, start your session off with scrolling down and flipping through the sound videos for your child to flick through and revisit our super sounds. Then look at our sound of the week ‘th’. Practise saying the sound and explore some objects that begin with ‘th’. I have put some up on here )three, thumb, thermometer) rbut can you find any in your house?

Now we are going to explore the words that are going to appear in our pirate story. Below is the green words and red words in the story. You can either quickly whizz through this with my turn (adult sounds out) your turn (Robin repeats) or make a game of them and write them on separate paper and your Robin picks one out and reads.

Now that we’ve recapped on our super sounds and read some words that will be in our book, we can start reading it. Give the next two pages a go and then answer the questions below. Make sure you use your best pirate voice aggghhrrr…

Questions:

• Can you find words with our super sound of the week ‘th’?

• What colour is the pirates hat?

• Pirate Bob has a pet hen, what pet would you have if you were a pirate?
