This half term we will centre our learning around the theme of “This is Me.”

 We will launch our learning in English with the focus of ‘The Place Value of Punctuation and Grammar,’ using resources from Grammarsaurus. Our class story is ‘The Fish who could Wish,’ by John Bush. This story links to our wider curriculum focus of Science answering the question, 'What do animals need to survive?’ The children will be learning about what animals eat, senses and similarities and differences in humans. Art will look at the work of the Mexican artist,  Frida Kahlo who painted self portraits.

In Maths, pupils will be learning about Place Value to 10 with sorting, comparing and ordering. Then moving on to Addition and Subtraction using part-whole models, writing number sentences and number bonds.

In P.E  the children will be focusing on Invasion Games, learning about tactics to move, negotiate space, pass and retrieve balls and play games as teams.

Homework books will be sent home every Friday and we collect them back in to school on Wednesday morning.

Please make sure you listen to your child read as often as possible- at least 4 times weekly. Books will be changed every 3 days during Read, Write, Inc lessons. 

Tapestry will be used when appropriate for us to share practical learning, special events, homework and important class messages. Please make sure you check the app regularly.

PE days are Tuesday and Thursday.

Please make sure your PE kit is named and kept in school at all times. We will send kits home at the end of every half term to be washed.

Thank you for your continued support
