Autumn 1 (All About Me) Week 4 22nd-26th September

Phonics

This week we have learnt the sound 't', 'i', 'n' and 'g'. We have learnt to read and write each sound using the letter formation rhymes. Please practise these sounds at home as we will move on next week to learn 4 more sounds.

Reading

This week we have been reading 'Goldilocks and the 3 Bears'. We have drawn the character of Goldilocks and also the setting of the 3 bears house. We have role played the story and thought about why it wasn't such a good idea for Goldilocks to go into the Bears house in the first place!

Writing 

This week, we have begun making our first class book called 'All About Foundation'. We have made a front cover for our book which includes a picture of us and we have also drawn and labelled our favourite food. Next week we will continue making our books until they are complete.

Maths

Our first unit of Maths is 'Match, sort and compare'. We have explored mass/weight, capacity and making patterns.

Big Picture

 Our first topic this term is 'All About Me'. This week we have focussed on our 5 senses. We explored smell pots, went on a sight walk, and listened to some sounds and guessed them. We drew and wrote about some of our favourite tastes and things we can feel.
