As our theme for the next term is ‘Heroes and Heroines’, the children will be learning all about the different roles of people in our community. We will be exploring places of work, types of uniform and different roles of real-life heroes and heroines.

You can support your child’s learning at home by discussing what job or role you or a family member may have and what it entails, discussing what it contributes to the community.

You should also design and make a superhero costume with your child using different fabrics and materials. This will give them a chance to be creative and use their imagination!

Throughout this term, the children will be continuing to learn reading their CVC words and begin reading words with fluency. Children now know, identify and read their set 1 sounds now confidently with fluency.

Please ensure you are supporting your child at home by watching the phonics links sent on teams weekly.

On Monday children will be sent homework to complete each week and will also be asked to return each Monday. Please ensure your child completes this weekly.

During this term, we will be reading stories surrounding our topic of heroes and heroines. We will be learning new vocabulary, identifying key events and characters within stories. Children will be learning the story 'Superheroes Like You'. We will be learning about all the different roles of people who help us in our community and their job roles, and explore real life rescue heroes and heroines.

You can support your child at home by reading them a range of stories surrounding different job roles and people who help us throughout our community. It would be a great opportunity to expand their knowledge on what they envision a hero or heroine to be.

To help nurture your child's imagination and foster a love of reading, be sure to read a variety of stories together and discuss what you've read. Talk about the characters and key events in the story. Each week, your child will continue to bring home library books for you to read to them. This is a great opportunity to engage with your child, ask questions about the story, and explore different themes and ideas together.

Throughout this term, your child will focus on developing key mathematical skills. They will learn to recognise and subitise numbers 1-8, finding one more or one less and explore the composition of the numbers 6, 7, and 8. They will also practice matching numbers to quantities, comparing quantities, and counting to 8.

Additionally, the children will begin to understand the difference between odd and even numbers, combine two groups of objects, and order items by height and length. They will also work on ordering the days of the week and measuring the height of cubes. The children will also begin to name 3D shapes and explore their properties.
