Here is all the information on what we will be doing in class this half term.

Our PE Days are Tuesday and Wednesday.

This term in Year 2 English we will be writing our own ‘Just so stories’ and using lots of imagination in our writing. We will also be writing letters to our new teacher in September. Year 1 children will have lots of writing opportunities within their provision challenges to build on their topic learning as well as writing a range of text types that link to their phonics group books. EYFS have been building on their writing skills within the provision and their phonics group sessions and will continue to build on their handwriting skills.

As part of our Maths lessons, we will be learning how to tell the time on a clock as well as learning lots of different measurement skills like length, height, mass and capacity. Remember, if there are areas of Maths you would like to work on you can use the White Rose Home Learning videos.  Maths home learning | Home learning | White Rose Education

In our topics lessons we are focusing on Magnificent Monarchs. We will be delving into a selection of British Kings and Queens and seeing what impacts they have made. In Art we are using our knowledge from History lessons to understand the importance of royal paintings and creating our own portrait paintings in the style.

In Science we have been looking at animal survival and exploring habitats. In the last half term we will be looking at life cycles and growing our own butterflies!

Remember we need our reading books in school every day as we will have lots of opportunities to read for pleasure this term or read with an adult as we have different people coming in to help. We are reading ‘The Giraffe, the pelly and me’ in our Reading lessons and as a class we have voted to read The Enchanted Wood by Enid Blyton.
