Early Years Foundation Stage Curriculum
This half term in Reception our theme is ‘Our Planet’.
This term we have been learning about Rainforests, Coral Reefs and habitats different to our own. When learning about the past we have been finding out about what life was like on our planet millions of years ago. We’ve researched Dinosaurs and how scientists discover what they might have looked like and what they ate. We’ve explored fossils and role played being Palaeontologists.
In Phonics we are working within Phase 3. The children are learning to read longer words by chunking groups of sounds. We have reading practise groups each day where we talk about books and practise sound talking and blending to read words. We’ve been reading Traditional Tales and retelling them through roleplay, small world activities and writing.
In Maths we have just finished our number unit: Building 9 and 10! Now we are exploring 3D shapes. We will also be counting to 20 and beyond this term.
We’ve enjoyed finding out about Hinduism and the celebration of Diwali. Also as part of British Science week, we explored different tastes and explored magnetic and non-magnetic materials.
In RE our Lent topic is called Growing. We are learning about Jesus and ways we can be like him and Grow in Love. We went to Mass for Ash Wednesday and have made our own Lent promises. We are also reading the Easter story and thinking about why Christians behave they way they do during Lent.
