Language, Literacy and

Communication

This term we are continuing with daily phonics to further children develop their reading and writing skills. We will be looking and sentence structure and punctuation to further develop their sentence writing.

Mathematics & Numeracy

We continue to focus heavily on number and reasoning in our numeracy session, starting with a focus on numbers beyond 20. We will also look at a range of space, shape and measure.

Inquiry Based Learning

Our main inquiry focus this term is Humanities. We will be exploring our local community, the people that live here, and how it has changed over time. We will be going out into the community and inviting visitors and experts in to learn more about where we live.

Can you help us with this? Are you a local expert? Let us know!

Outdoor Learning:

We are aiming to increase the opportunities for outdoor learning for pupils. In order to support us to do this, please ensure children are sent to school prepared for all weathers. This includes a warm waterproof coat daily. Diolch
