Over the next few weeks we will be looking at
Phonics : In phonics we will be carrying out a variety of activities that encourage the children to identify the letter and hear the sound at the beginning of the word, for example dog, dig, tag
This week we will be focusing on the letter ’ d’
Next week we will be focusing on the letter ‘g’
Literacy
In Literacy we are continuing to focus on ’ Goldilocks and the Three Bears’. The children have loved retelling the story both inside and outside. We have made beds out of blocks and used the masks to act out the story. We will be making porridge this week to link to the story and researching other types of bears such as pandas, polar bears and sun bears. We will also be building houses, chairs and beds from junk to retell the story, developing are story vocabulary.
Maths
In Maths we are focusing on measure. We will be measuring different sized bears using non-standard units and after sequencing the story we will move on to sequencing our day.
