Monday:
Maths- As a fun starter I would like you to either count to 20- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_MVzXKfr6e8 or challenge yourself and count to 100- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_MVzXKfr6e8 (we sing both of these songs at school so the children are very familiar with them). Now choose one of the ordering number challenges that are attached below.
Phonics task- I would like you to recap your phase 2 and phase 3 phonics sounds again. Start by singing along to the following songs- https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x3w26z8 (phase 2) and https://www.dailymotion.com/video/xuidg1 (phase 3). Ask an adult to call out some sounds from your phase 2 and phase 3 sound mat (these can be found below) and point to the correct one. Did you struggle to find any of them? If you did I would like you to write these down on separate sheets of paper and place them around the room or garden. When an adult calls one of the sounds out run to the correct one. Using a stick from the garden or chalk see if you can write these sounds in the mud or on the concrete. With lots of practice I know you will remember them.
Topic- Decorate the alphabet. Give your child a letter from the alphabet to write down and see what they can turn it into e.g. an animal, a car or a castle. Now label your picture. |

Welcome to Bumblebee Class
Miss Lofthouse is the class teacher and Miss Back is the class LSA
Our class topics for the year are:
Autumn 1 - Superheroes
Autumn 2 –Great Britain
Spring 1 – Around the world
Spring 2 - Space
Summer 1 –Minibeasts
Summer 2 – Water
We are the Early Years Foundation Stage where learning takes place through purposeful play opportunities that are led and directed by the children.
Any child's first year at school is the most important stage of their schooling journey. This year provides children with the skills necessary to later progress onto a formal approach to learning.
We strive to ensure all children gain secure personal, social and emotional skills, communication and language and physical skills in order to establish firm foundations, which can later be built upon when learning the academic skills, such as literacy and mathematics.
We work closely with parents and families to ensure a positive and supportive relationship is developed to enhance the outcomes of all children.
You will find lots of useful and important information about Bumblebee class in the downloadable booklet below.
Please also take a look at the following links where you can find some interesting reads to help and support your child within their development and learning.
Books we are looking at this half term- Supertato, Traction Man, Superkid and Captain Underpants.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.
