Curriculum
Please see what we will be learning about this year on our year group overview.
To find out what knowledge we need to learn and remember for this half term, please see our knowledge organisers.
CLASS TEXT: The Tiger Who Came To Tea
This half term, our English lessons will focus on writing to entertain. We will be using The Tiger Who Came to Tea as our core text. Over the coming weeks, the children will be introduced to conjunctions and will practise using and and because to extend their sentences. They will also revisit and strengthen their understanding of capital letters and full stops, ensuring these are used correctly in their writing.
Once the children are confident using conjunctions, they will adapt the story and create their own version by changing the main character.

Homework
It is really important to read with your child at least 3 times a week. Reading stories on a regular basis helps children develop a sense of the story structure and fires their imagination. It really does make a difference!
Every half term a Key Instant Recall Facts (KIRFs) focus for Mathematics will be set, along with suggestions of how to practice these at home. A little and often approach is suggested to be taken here. You will be amazed at the confidence it will give your child within their mathematical learning.
Additional activities, suggestions and recommendations will be sent home for each topic, to support your child's development.
