Welcome to Early Years
We love reading! We use Read, Write Inc to support our teaching of phonics and reading and our children are taught in small targeted groups each day. We assess children each half term so as we are always confident that their phonics learning meets their needs. Every child takes home a Read, Write Inc reading book each week to show off their wonderful reading skills, that they have worked so hard on all week, at home.
Please explore our English curriculum pages to find out more about how we teach phonics within our school.
Summer 1 half term theme- 'All at Sea
This half term we will be exploring stories with the theme of 'All at sea'. We will be learning through the stories The night Pirates, Missing Richmond, The Little Mermaid, Commotion in the Ocean. The children will be working on their individual writing targets during drawing club.
RE - Pentecost
What should the friends of Jesus do?In our RE lessons, we will be continuing our learning about Pentecost. We will be learning about the events that took place and how this might have made the disciples feel. We will be thinking about how we are all friends of Jesus too and what we would go out and teach others about him.
Reading and Writing
As well as following the phonics scheme Read Write Inc we will be doing lots of writing for purpose to help engage the children in their learning and promote a love of writing! The children will be writing lists, making cards, writing captions, making signs and learning to write their names.
