Writing 

This week, we have been reading aloud our writing for our class collaborative book 'All About Me'. We've loved sharing facts about ourselves with our talk partners on the carpet.

Reading

This week we have been reading 'The Growing Story'. We have explored the concept of growing and how changes might happen to us slowly over time, such as not being able to fit into our old clothes anymore! We have enjoyed having discussions about the changes we have already gone through from a baby up until now.

Maths

We have been focusing on the numbers 1, 2 and 3. We have been learning to recognise the numerals, count the numbers and also subitise. We have also been introduced to the concept of numbers being made up of other numbers, for example, a 3 is made of a 2 and a 1.

Big Picture

Our topic this term is 'All About Me'. We have been learning about maps and autumn. We went on a local walk and looked at landmarks in our immediate area such as the garage, the beehive, and the cricket pitch. We've also been on an autumn walk in our school field and enjoyed collecting leaves that have fallen from the trees.
