Our Topic for Summer 1
We will be starting this half term with our new topic based on the book ‘Gigantosaurus’ by Jonny Duddle.
The blurb - Each dinosaur mum said, "Beward my child, of the gigantosaurs so fierce and wild. His feet go stomp! His jaws go crunch! In the blink of an eye you'll be his lunch!"
Through this topic we will be learning about different dinosaurs, how they lived and their diets. We are also very excited to be having some dinosaur visitors from TeachRex.
Our Maths for Summer 1
This half term our maths topics are, ‘To 20 and Beyond', 'How many now?' and 'Sharing and Grouping' which will consolidate our previous learning. As well as direct teaching, the children will continuously explore maths through our learning landscape.
PE
The children will take part in a PE session every Monday. The children are to come into school wearing their PE kit each Monday.
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.
