Lego Mini Me
Long time no blog! Just been messing about on this new website, surely lots of fun for every kid (and adult)! Gives you the ability to create a mini figure based on you. Bit of promotion for the LEGO movie in the final graphics but I'm sure we all know how to use the crop feature! Anywho enjoy this piece of fun! LEGO!
Hope you like Lego Me! To create your own you can find it here http://sigfigcreator.thelegomovie.com/

Beginnings: How To Teach Phonics
Here is quite a useful early strategy I have found from another blog. Definitely worth a look, some excellent resources and ideas!
The following describes how I am teaching my boy phonics at home.
1. Arrange the at, an, ap, at in a row.
2. Teach the child how to read each of the 2 letter words. Then mix up the words :
I say a word "at", then ask my boy to pick up the correct word for me. I continue to say one word at a time until he picks up all the cards.
2. Then give the child one word, for example, "cat". Teach him to read the word, c - at, cat. Read this web page Make a word : AT to learn how to teach.
3. Then ask him to put the word "cat" in the same column as "at", as shown in this photo.
4. Then give him another word, for example, "fan". Teach him to read f - an, fan. Read this web page Make a Word : AN to learn how to teach.
5. Then ask him to put in the same column as "an".
6. As the child becomes more confident, give him a word, and let him put in the correct position without helping him.
7. You can mix up the words. Then say a word, like "can" and ask him to pick up the correct word. Continue until he picks up all the words. In this way, you can make sure that he is really paying attention and learning.

All Things Phonics #1 Introduction
Howdi
Think I am goings to do a bit of focus on Phonics. Being just qualified phonics was quite difficult to teach with very little input given at university other than a little theory. But what once was a little difficult I am now beginning to shine. Big focus being in Year One with the new reading test in Summer term, but alas it has made me see how children learn phonics and put it in to phonics.
Of the next few posts ill try to post some of the things that have helped me along the way, bit of planning and useful places to have a look. Feel free to get in touch with any suggestions!
