Welcome to Foundation Stage 2!
We have had a great learning journey so far, full of exciting adventures and we are going to continue our fantastic learning journey throughout our summer term also.
In the summer term, we will be reading wonderful stories and being introduced to some great book characters.
In Literacy, we will be retelling familiar stories, such as Jack and the Beanstalk and Chicken Licken and learning new information through non-fiction books linked to healthy lifestyles, life cycles and new life. We will continue to apply our phonics knowledge to read and write simple sentences linked to our stories of the week. We will learn new action words, which will support our fluency in reading simple texts. Through Floppy’s phonics we will continue to learn new sounds and apply them to our reading and writing; practicing our blending and segmenting skills.
In maths, we will be recapping 2D and 3D shapes and developing our knowledge of number. During the spring term, we have been exploring the composition of numbers to 10 and we will now be applying this knowledge to automatically recall number bonds and learn doubling and halving facts.
During PE, for our physical development, we will be further developing our gymnastics skills, built on skills learnt during the spring term. During summer term 2, we will be focussing on team games and athletics, demonstrating cooperative learning and applying skills taught throughout the year.
As part of Understanding the World, we will be learning all about spring and new life through growing plants, observational drawings, visiting our school pond and caring for caterpillars before releasing them as butterflies into our lovely garden.
We will also be learning about homes around the world and places of worship by visiting our local church.
All of our learning will be recorded on Evidence Me and all parents are welcome to look through your child’s learning journey.
