Autumn – CURRICULUM OVERVIEW | |
English | We are going to be exploring and writing about stories this term (one of which is The Tiger Who Came to Tea). We are going to practice our pre cursive handwriting, and practise writing for a purpose. Our aim is to have fun and write about it. We will also explore writing and reading non fiction books and texts based on things the children are interested in. |
Maths | This term we will be looking at our Learn Its and SAFEs, which allow children to work on and apply all areas of their mathematic learning. We will also focus on place value and number, learning to count, read and write numbers, comparing numbers, calculations - focusing on addition and subtraction within 20. We will look at the wider Maths subjects of Geometry (2D and 3D shapes), length and height. |

Spellings year 1
Spellings are in line with the rest of the school. Turn learning into a game, have fun with them. See if they can use the words in sentences. Repeated practice and use is a great way to learn them, and for your children to feel confident with them. READ, COVER, WRITE, REPEAT :)
