W/ C Monday 2nd November 2015

Our story stimulus for this week is "The Stick Man" by Julia Donaldson. 

Mathematical Development

In our maths focussed activities this week, the children will be problem solving with lengths of sticks, after listening to the story "The Stick Man". In our counting sessions we will be counting forwards, backwards, in Welsh and will start to count in 2's, 5's and 10's. 

Language and Literacy

During our literacy sessions we will be recapping the phonic sounds & songs from the last few weeks and will be focussing on learning the letter sounds g, o u & l.

The children will be listening to a story about each of these sounds and then will learn the corresponding song and action, as well as be introduced on how to form these letters with correct formation and orientation. 

We will of course be doing individual reading with the children too!

Creative Development

There will be lots of lovely creative activities on offer in our classroom including one of our focussed activities where the children will create their stick family. The children will also be making their own musical instruments. 

We will also be having a lovely music session on Friday morning. 

Our PE session will be Thursday so please ensure your child has their PE kit with them on this day.
