English

In English, we will be using the Story Box approach, which children first encountered in Early Years, to explore themes of our texts. 

The Story Box ritual is drama-rich and engages leaners through provocations, requiring deep thinking, with a focus on raising the profile of oracy. 

This half term, we will be using 'Hermelin' by Mini grey. We will be building up to writing our own detective story and letter. 

Reading diaries and reading books will now be collected in on MONDAY and new books given out on Mondays. We will be completing on a Thursday so please ensure that reading records are in school everyday so that we can record what the learning that has taken place in guided reading. . Thank you for supporting your child with their five reads. The new books are designed to ensure children have a sound understanding of their phonics and have the opportuity to discuss new vocabulary with you. 

Science

  • Identify and name a variety of common wild and garden plants, including deciduous and evergreen trees.
  • Identify and describe the basic structure of a variety of common flowering plants, including trees.

Maths

In Maths, we are following the Highfield progression of skills document. Where we will be looking at place value, counting forwards and backwards to 100, counting in 2's, 5's and 10's, converting numbers to words, reading and interpreting addition and subtraction sentences. 

Why not watch some of our favourite counting songs at home?
