Autumn Term

This term we will be reading  a range of books including  ' The Highway Rat' and 'Monkey Puzzle' by Julia Donaldson. We will be using these texts as a stimulus for writing lists and captions. The children will then begin a programme of study focussed around grammar. 

In Maths we will be working hard on place value within 10 as well as addition and subtraction within 10.

Our science topic is 'All About Me' where we learn about our bodies and the five senses. As geographers  we will embark on a fieldwork unit, exploring the school grounds and surroundings. In IT we will create images and work on keyboard and mouse skills. We will also study seasonal change, learning about the changes which happen in autumn and winter.
