Autumn Term
Welcome Back!
It has been wonderful to welcome the children into their new classroom for what I hope to be a great year for them all.
In English, we will start by covering the Place Value of Punctuation and Grammar units in order to give the children a really strong basis for their writing going forward.
These units will be supported by texts about bugs, wildlife and habitats, including The Bug Collector by Alex Griffiths. We will be using our outdoor environment to cement this learning.
We are continuing to use Little Wandle and have begun our journey on becoming better spellers. Please see the Little Wandle website here if you want any initial support with these.
We use White Rose Maths and we'll start this term with work on Place Value, ensuring that we are confident with using numbers to 100. We will then move on to some Addition and Subtraction, followed by work on Shape at the end of the term. We will also be having a focus on telling the time across the term.
Topic
Our Geography topic is based around the differences between the cold climate of Norway and the climate that we have here in the UK. Thinking about how people live, buildings they live in and the the weather.
PE
The children will have PE on Thursday afternoon. The children will be outside as much as possible this term because we love using the amazing space that we have here at Marton. Please make sure that your child has a coat in school and the correct PE kit for Thursday. If there are any changes to PE or if the children will need PE kit on any additional days, I will let you know.
