Our learning journey in Spring comes as follows:
Weeks 1- 3- Our Talk for Writing book is: Little Red Riding Hood- we will be exploring the story, collaging the wolf for our new class display and exploring when out on educational visits what natural objects we may find in the woods. As part of our art and PSHE learning we will explore looking after the squirrel and what he needs to be cared for.
Week 4- Owls- explore real pictures and recreate our own. Hold and compare natural and non natural objects from the woods. Exploring different textures through sensory play.
Week 5- The Gruffalo! Using technology we will mark make the characters and create sensory bottles linked to the story and Gruffalo biscuits, yum!
Week 6 RE focus, our theme this term is What Do Stories Tell Us About God? Exploring people who are special to us and exploring religious stories.
RE songs to support our RE learning:
