Weekly Round-Up 24.1.25

 Story Focus: Superworm by Julia Donaldson

Phonics Focus: we are learning new sounds and digraphs and have been reading and writing words.

Maths Focus: composition of 5.  We used blocks and our fingers (how many up, how many down) to explore the composition.  We also looked a length.

Science Focus: we are going to go birdwatching next week as part of the Big Birdwatch, so we discussed what a bird is and described their features. We looked at books and clips to discuss what they do.

PSHCE Focus: things that are safe to put on our body (medicines).

PE focus: moving in different ways and giving ideas to change rules in a game. 

Look at our writing! We write every day: we have a handwriting session where we practise the day's sound and then most of us are writing a caption or sentence. We say a caption or sentence lots of times, counting the words, then help the adults to write it by sounding out words with our robot arms or copying tricky words. Then they cover it up and we have to have a go independently.  We only use words which contain sounds we have taught, so that they are able to segment them.  We have come on so much!
