English
Our featured text is ‘The Lonely Beast’. We will be doing a range of drama and role play activities which will promote talk and enrich children’s vocabulary as well as develop their creative skills. Children will be exploring adjectives as well as prepositions and creating story maps in preparation to write narratives.

We will be revisiting place value and support children to partition numbers using the ten frame. Please encourage your child to understand the teen numbers by clicking on the link below.
Ten frame – Game
Science
We continue our science topic ‘Sort it out’ which is about materials. Children will be identifying natural and man made materials and sorting them out as well as describing how objects feel – hard , soft, bumpy, rigid, transparent, smooth, waterproof… Why not play a game at home encouraging your child to look at different objects and describing them?
PSHE
We will be looking at people who help us in the community for e.g fireman, police, doctor, nurse, paramedic, builder, teacher etc…
ICT
Please support your child to develop keyboard skills to type their name and write a few sentences – focusing on shift key ( for capital letters), space bar, enter, delete key.
Home work
Homework is sent home every Friday and should be promptly returned every Wednesday. Mathletics homework is also set weekly related to the concepts children are learning. Children can earn bronze, silver and gold certificates as they earn the points. Please check the back of your reading record for your child’s username and password.
Reading is very important and please enjoy reading a range of fun books as well as their reading books to promote a love for reading. Please remember to write a comment or sign your child’s reading record regularly. We appreciate your support to enable your child to be a fluent reader.
