AUTUMN 2 TOPIC: Light and Dark

THIS WEEK’S LEARNING

LITERACY:

  • Core Text: It was a cold dark night by Tim Hopgood
  • Phonics: To learn a new letter sound each day as follows: /z/ /x/  Please check your child’s bookbag each day for new letter formation practise sheet. Please check Google Classroom for  how to hand in completed homework.
  • New Phonics learning: This week the children will begin learning to blend lessons – please check Google Classroom for practice videos later this week.

MATHS:

Mastering Number: This week the children will:

  • explore how numbers can be composed of ones and, from this, begin to investigate the composition of 3 and 4. Composing and de-composing numbers involves children investigating part–whole relations, e.g. seeing that 3 can be composed of 1 and 2.
  • learn from practical experience that a ‘whole’ is made up of smaller parts and is, therefore, bigger than its parts

EAD: Creating patterns using a range of materials

CAL & UW: To  talk about the significance of Diwali and Guy Fawkes celebrations

RHE: To understand the importance of safety when using/near fireworks

PE: Dance: To copy and repeat a short set of controlled movements and actions

FOREST SCHOOL: This week the children will have their first Forest School lesson with our ForestSchool Teacher Mrs Simion. Please ensure they have the required clothing and footwear on Friday.
