Our Topic for Spring A
Our topic for this half-term is based on the book 'Let's all Creep through Crocodile Creek'. It is about three animals friends who go on a journey. Through this topic we will explore journeys and transport, different environments and cultures and animals and camoflauge.
Home Learning and Homework
Reading books
Children bring home two books or a book and a ditty sheet each week. They also have reading journals which we use to keep a record of the books the children have brought home. Please could you note down in the journal when you have read their books/ditty sheet with them, ideally 3 times a week. Their books will be changed each Thursday. The child's reading will develop quickly throughtout the year so the type of reading books they bring home will also change but we will add any information you need on here and in their journals as they progress. Please contact us on the class email accounts if you have any questions.

There are also some links to some online stories in the files section below.
Phonics
The children have amazed us in their phonics sessions so far. They have brought home a RWI sounds chart so they can practise their sounds at home. Below (in the wider learning links section) is some information about the Read Write Inc Phonics programme and also a video detailing the correct sound pronucation.
Doodle Maths
All children have been registered with Doodle Maths, the online maths game. Children's log in details have been stuck on the back of the front cover of their reading diaries. For more information please see the Doodle Maths attachment on this webpage.
Tapestry
We use an online learning journey in school called Tapestry. This can also be used at home to share any photographs or any activities you have done. If you do not yet have access please speak to one of the EYFS team.
PE
The children will take part in a PE session every Tuesday. The children are to come into school wearing their PE kit each Tuesday.
Welly Wednesdays
On Wednesdays we will be spending more time in our school woods doing forest school activities. If you have not yet done so please bring some named wellies to be kept in school.
We take full advantange of our outdoor classroom, woods and fields around school, so please ensure children have their coats each day incase of poor weather.
