Terms 3 and 4

Year R children settled back into school quickly after a very long and exciting first term at school.

We have been thinking about Winter and the weather and have loved freezing water and experimenting with ice. We tried many of different ways of melting it in the classroom and enjoyed breaking ice outside in the playground on really cold mornings last week. The books we have been reading in English have got a winter theme too.

Later in the term we will be finding out all about explorers and are hoping to have a visit from a very famous person who climbed Mount Everest!

In phonics we have learnt lots of sounds and we are beginning to build words by ourselves. We have a phonics lesson every day and it really helps with our reading.

In maths we have been looking at one more and one less. We enjoyed playing games where we had to work out how many toys were in a bag and then make the answer one more. Lots of the songs we have learned have a counting theme. For the rest of the term we will be learning about numbers up to 10 and beyond!

Next term our topic is ‘People who help us’. We have already booked a visit from the police, a paramedic and we are hoping that the fire engine will visit school again as well.

Please remember to share your reading books at home.
