Nursery and Reception

Wow - the last half term - how fast as this year gone!

This half term our topic is ‘Pirates’.’ We started the half term looking at pirate items and portraits of pirates. We have used oil pastels to draw our own pirates and discussed whether pirates are real. We will also look at pirate ships, make pirate maps, look at pirate treasure and make our own Jolly Roger. The children have really enjoyed making pirate ships in our outdoor area and using them to sail the seven seas.  In music we will be learning some pirate songs and continuing to improve our listening skills. 

We will end this half term with a pirate day – the children absolutely love this day. We all dress up and do lots of pirate activities and have a pirate picnic. Please look out for some more information about this on Class Dojo.

Reception

In Phonics we will be focusing on phase 4. Your children will not learn any new phonemes this term, we will be focusing on adjacent consonants. Adjacent consonants are two consonants that are next to each other in a word e.g. sp in spot or st in stop. In English we will be reading lots of non-fiction books linked to our topic. We will use these to write facts about pirates. We will continue to work on sentences having capital letters, full stops and fingers spaces. Handwriting is continuing to be a big focus for all the children so please continue to support your child with this at home. In Maths we are looking at addition and subtraction and becoming more confident with our numbers bonds too 10. We will also be focusing on doubling and sharing.

 

Any question please message on Class Dojo or speak to the adult on the gate.  Thankyou for your continued support.
