Our topic this half term is:   

                  Big Wide World

During this term the children will be learning about countries and cultures around the world. We will create our own passports and pretend to fly to different countries around the world and explore their food, music and traditions. We will explore different kinds of transport and use our design and technology skills to make our own vehicles.

On June 11th we will have a visit from Captain Carl who will tell the children about his adventures around the world. The children will have lots of pirate fun on this day, creating their own maps, telescopes/ hats and go on an exciting treasure hunt. 

In phonics, we will be segmenting and blending and will continue our RWI programme. In Maths, the children will learn about positional language and continue to learn about subtraction and addition.

Home Learning:

MiniMash: Children are encouraged to explore MiniMash at home as well as in the classroom, trying out different activities linked to learning across the curriculum. 
 

Home Learning Project: We encourage children to complete a home learning project linked to their curriculum project being studied with some help from their grown up, if needed. Home learning projects provide a fun and creative opportunity for children to practise and apply new skills, as well as express their knowledge in a topic area.
