You will need a piece of paper, scissors and glue to make a dice.Think about some of the letters that you may find a bit difficult to write. Each number on your dice will represent that letter. For example: 1 – h2- p3- m4 - t5 - q6 – jEach time the dice lands on a number, practice writing that letter 4 times. Make sure you are forming this letter neatly and correctly. Remember to start forming this letter from the correct place.

This week our Fairytale story is ‘Hansel and Gretel’. Can you describe this story to someone at home? Have another look at the powerpoint to remind you of the story we read yesterday. Try reading this again to help you with today’s tasks. Hansel and Gretel used pebbles and then bread to make their own way back home. Today your task is to draw and design a map. When drawing your map, you must first think of a starting point and finishing point. A good starting point may be your house. You can be as creative as you want. Your map could be outside or inside. Think about what you might see on your way to your finish point, what might you come across? How will you get from the start to finish? Underneath your map, write a description of how you will get from the starting point to the finishing point. Remember
