We will be writing and performing poems, whilst also focusing on saying and composing sentences. We will also be writing our own stories and developing our skills of prediction, sequencing and inference. We will continue to have a big focus on basic skills, the children sounding out words accurately, using finger spaces, capital letters and full stops and we will embed the SPAG features we learnt last half term (adjectives, using and, question marks and exclamation marks) but we will also be using a range of other SPAG features such as adding s or es to make words plural, using the prefix un and using ing, ed and er. In maths we will be looking at fractions, Geometry, place value within 100, time and money . DatesChurch Trip - 1st July, 9am-12pm.
