Maths

This half term we are going to be learning about 2d and 3d shapes, we are going to be doing some measuring and we are going to continue work on our numbers. We are going to be adding and subtracting numbers within 20. We are going to start looking at numbers to 40.

 

We are getting really good at recalling or times tables so will be carrying on learning the x2, x10 and x5. 

 

 

English: Phonics

Phonics is essential so we practise it everyday! Children will be learning lots of new phonemes and applying them in reading and writing. Please support your child at home by using the resources on Showbie and play lots of phonics games on www.phonicsplay.com.  

Reading with your child every day helps children with their phonics, please work with us by encouraging your child to read at home. 

 

 

English: Writing

 

We are getting very good at writing and we work really hard. This half term we are going to be writing descriptions based on the famous book The Tiger Who Came for Tea by Judith Kerr. We are going to writing recounts as our non fiction writing.  

 

 

English: Reading

We are going to be going back in time and learning all about The Great Fire of London. 

 

Art

We are going to be carrying on this half term with collage in art. We are focusing on cartography and we are going to be creating and making maps. We are going to be working on lots of skills, building up to make a final piece. We read this book The Boy who Loved Maps as a starting point and we are looking forward to using our imaginations to make our own maps.
