Half term week is almost over. The weather has been good for spending time outside, travelling to see family, friends and going away. We hope that you have all had fun and are looking forward to the next term,
The topic for this term is 'By the Sea'. We will look at a range of stories and think about activities enjoyed at the seaside. In this first week we will find out about fish and wishes, seaside fun, build sandcastles and how to keep safe in the sun.
The weather is forecast to stay hot and it is important that children have a sunhat, have sun cream applied before school and bring in a water bottle daily.
Our maths work in the first week will be focussed on capacity and mass. The activities will include using containers, comparing amounts and using scales to make playdough.
The phonics will continue to consolidate taught sounds and introduce alternative ways to make the same sounds e.g. igh and ie. Reading real and alien words , reading and writing sentences will help to apply the skills.
