Literacy
Through Drawing Club the children will be beginning to write simple phrases using tricky words and phonemes they have learnt e.g. the dog.
Drawing club will still allow the children to be creative and imaginative as well using all their super sound knowledge to write short phrases.
During the Spring term the phonics focus will be on diagraphs (2 letters that make 1 sound).
Maths
In maths, the children will be continuing to develop their understanding of numbers to 5, including introducing the concept of zero. Through practical games and activities the children will be embedding their understanding of the value of these numbers. This will include representing the numbers, finding 1more, 1 less and subitising (seeing how many objects there are without having to count)
