Please make sure your child has a water bottle, rain jacket and they have a spare set of clothes to keep on their peg each day. A spare pairs of wellies can be left at school as we spend lots of time outside! Please label all items with your child's name to avoid items getting lost. We work hard to teach the children to become more independent with putting on shoes and welly boots - please help us with this by encouraging your child to do this at home.
Please make sure you are signed up to Class Dojo for day to day updates about all out exciting activities, and information about your child's progress. If you have any questions or queries you can speak to us at drop off/pick up time or message us on Class Dojo.
Term 2:
This term our curriculum is 'Lets Explore.' During this time we will be focusing on exploring our environment and the changing of the seasons. As always, we will be spending lots of time outside!
In Maths we will be building using shapes, exploring pattern and colour and counting. We will be hearing and saying number names, focusing on saying them in order. We will be practising subitising 1, 2 and 3.
In English we will be focusing on the stories, 'The Gingerbread Man' and 'Dear Santa'. As the term progresses we will begin learning some new Christmas songs ready to perform for our grown ups in December.
Wellies, hats and gloves are a must at this time of year so the children can continue enjoying lots of outdoor learning. Please remember a spare change of clothes for their peg.
