Term 5

The Very Hungry Caterpillar

This term we have been focusing on our key text The Very Hungry Caterpillar. We have used this to inspire our learning including our writing and understanding of the world. We have live caterpillars in the classroom which we have been looking after and observing as they go through the extraordinary process of metamorphosis to become butterflies. We are very excited to set them free when they are butterflies.

The Local Community

We have been learning about our local community and enjoyed some school trips and visitors to explore this. We have visited the local park and church. We have also been visited by the police and a waste collector to discuss their roles and answer our questions.

Maths

We have continued to develop our number sense to 10. We will focus on subitising and 5 and a bit. We are also focusing on measurement. We have measured people and objects and compared heights.

Reading

We are now learning Set 2 special friends in phonics.
