We are continuing to enjoy ‘Talk through stories’ this term, which provides the opportunity for children to really explore key texts, understand the principle of the story, learn new vocabulary and explore new characters. Each week we will focus on one key text which the children will become very familiar with.
Our literacy key texts for this will be:
-
The Extraordinary Gardener
-
Supertato
Other topical key texts this term will be:
-
Jack and the Bean stalk
-
The Tiny Seed
-
Oliver’s vegetables
STEAM
This term our STEAM focus is Science, and we will be answering the question ‘Can I develop an understanding of the living world around me?’ The children will be working towards being able to show an understanding of how plants change over time. They will look at how we grow plants, what plants need to thrive and what plants there are in our environment.
