THIS WEEK’S LEARNING

LITERACY: Literacy this term will  focus on developing the children’s ability to:

  • blend to read with accuracy and fluency.
  • demonstrate understanding of what they have read by answering questions about the texts they read
  • use their phonic knowledge to spell and write words phonetically
  • to begin to spell some high frequency words correctly eg. the, my, he, she, we, said,
  • create and write their own ideas as sentences which can be read by themselves and others

Focus Book: The Hungry Caterpillar by  Eric Carle. 

MATHS:

  • use their fingers to represent numbers within 5, understanding that the ‘whole’ has not changed
  • use their own models and/or drawings to explore and represent the numbers within 5.
  • use die frames as a different structure with which to represent and match the same numbers within 5
  • use spatial language to describe their arrangements.
  • explore ways of representing numbers within 5 using 10-frames
  • make links between different representations of numbers within 5.

UW: To develop an understanding of the different animal groups such as mammals, reptiles, amphibians, birds and insects

RHE: Relationships: To learn how to help others to feel part of a group
