English
We will be starting our new writing unit based on the book 'Juniper Jupiter' by Lizzy Stewart. In this unit we will be writing a superhero narrative and a letter.
Reading
Please read your child's reading book with them every day for 10 minutes. A little often has a huge impact on children at this age. Children need to have their reading books and diaries in their bags everyday, so they can be ready to be read with. We change children's reading books every Friday.
Maths
Our maths work this term will follow the First4Maths scheme of learning. In number, we will be counting beyond 10 noticing pattern in ones, recalling bonds to 10, odd and even numbers and symmetry linked to doubles.
PE
This half term, PE will be on Tuesday and Thursday. Please make sure your child comes into school wearing their PE kit on these days.
