Welcome to term 2 everyone, I hope you had a lovely October break!
This term we have lots of exciting things to learn!
Literacy
In literacy we will continue to work on our single sounds in P1 and our diagraphs in P2. Reading will also follow the usual format. Our focus for writing this term is narrative and Christmas themed.
Numeracy
In numeracy for P1 we will continue to work with numbers within 10, including correct number formation. We will then move on to addition later in the term.
For P2 we will be working with numbers within 100 including place value and addition/subtraction within 20.
For both P1 and P2 our topic maths will focus on data handling as well as estimation and rounding.
Topic
In term 2 we are finishing off the Our Community topic. We will then have a one week mini-topic looking at COP26 and Climate Change followed by our festive-favourite Showtime!
Health and Wellbeing
Our HWB focus in term 2 is on Core Values such as fairness, honesty and responsibility. In PE we are focusing on movement including things like running, jumping, speed etc.
RME
This term we will be looking at Christianity and Christian Holidays. We will also learn about the Hindu festival Diwali and the Jewish festival Hanukkah.
Modern Languages and Music
The children will continue to work with Mrs Gilmore for French and Mr Smith for Music.
As you can see it will be a busy and exciting term for us, I look forward to seeing what we can achieve together.
