Big Learning

Next week we will be having a busy week.

In Literacy, the children will be receiving their new reading books either on Monday or Tuesday. We will be talking about the book and they will be making predictions about what they think will happen next. We will be revising some phonics and word building from last term.

In Numeracy, we will be counting to 30, 50 or 100, both forwards and backwards. The children will be ordering the numbers and looking for missing numbers in sequences.

In Health and Wellbeing, we are looking at our friendships, and thinking about the qualities which make ‘a good friend.’ We are thinking about the similarities and differences between us. We are linking this with our Friendship topic using the stories of Winnie the Pooh. These stories illustrate how different the friends are, but also how they care for and help each other. I have asked the children to bring in any related Winnie the Pooh items. Could I ask that you name any item your child brings in, to ensure it’s safe return.

In PE, which will be on Wednesday afternoons, we will be working on increasing our stamina through our Daily 10 activities. We will practise our throwing and catching skills with both large and small balls.
