Class 1

In foundation this term our topic is All about me! The children have time to settle into their new school life and make new friends. We look at books such as All are welcome here and Kind which teach the children we are all different and we are all important. We share pictures of ourselves and our families to see how we have grown and changed and get to know each other, building a sense of our school community. 

We start out phonics journey and practise writing our names, playing with play dough, threading activities and building all help the children strengthen their muscles for writing. 

We start subitising (recognising amounts without counting) Learn new number songs and most importantly we get outside when the weather allows so we can start to notice the changing seasons and move our bodies in the fresh air!
