Planned trips

You can discuss the curriculum with your child

The overview for our learning this half-term is ‘ALL ABOUT ME’. This will focus around a number of books: All Kinds of People, All About Me, Super Duper You and All Welcome, Starting School (fiction stores). These will help the children to settle into school and begin to learn about how we are unique and special in our very own way.  We will begin to learn and celebrate our similarities and differences.

Please spend a few minutes chatting with your child and ask them some simple questions such as:  What is your name? How old are you? What is your favourite colour? What is your favourite toy? What food do you like to eat?  Do you have a special interest or hobby? Where is your favourite or most special place?  What colour are your eyes, hair and skin?  What makes you happy?  What makes you sad? What makes you laugh?  What are you good at?
