Term 6 Learning

This term, we will be using the book 'Above and Below' by Hamako Clulow to explore different habitats across the world. This wonderful book will help us to explore new vocabulary linked with the learning the children are completing in their base classes this term in Connected Learning. We will think about the different animals that live in each habitat and why they are suited to these. In Maths, we will begin the term by learning about time. Firstly, looking at the vocabulary around time concepts e.g. before, next, after and then moving on to using clocks to tell the time to the hour and half past the hour. We will continue to practise our Phonics each day as well as recapping previous learning to ensure the children are securing their knowledge.

Home Learning

Please continue to read with your child each day at home. You can use the Language Through Colour prompts and questions to support your child when answering questions about the story.

Practising number facts such as number bonds to 20 and the 2, 5 and 10 times tables will support your child in retaining key knowledge. The links below will provide some activities to support this.

Please also explore our SRP page with further information about the interventions that your child may be involved in.
