Nursery and Reception Happy New Year to everyone and we look forward to the Spring Term. Reception Only - We will be continuing with Tric a Chlic letters, words and books. Remember to record any comments and sign in the Library Book Record. The children should bring their reading bags to school every day. The Reception children will be having a PE lesson on a Wednesday afternoon this term. The lessons will require a suitable PE kit and your child can keep the uniform at school and return home to wash at the end of half term. Please make sure that the child’s name is on every piece of clothing. They will be encouraged to dress independently and safety rules in the lessons will be discussed. Nursery children will not need a uniform this term. In addition to lessons they will have opportunities to develop skills by using large tools such as bikes and scooters and small tools such as pencils and scissors. Our theme this term is ‘Tren Mawr Glas’. We will read the story, learn about how trains work and different modes of transport. In addition to this, we will learn about the animals in the story and how to look after living things. We will look at different ways we can travel to take care of our world. Languages, literacy and communication. We will be reading a variety of different stories in class, with a main focus being the book 'Tren Mawr Glas’ (The Big Blue Train). We will continue to use the Tric and Chlic scheme to learn letters, words and sentences with a focus on correct formation and developing reading, spelling and writing skills. Children will develop language skills through role play and a variety of activities including TGCH. They write a postcard and look at a newspaper article during the term. Mathematics and Numeracy. We will continue to develop mathematical skills through play activities in class and outside and learn songs and rhymes relating to number. We will focus on identifying and number value, data/distribution, addition and subtraction, time, estimation and verification. Health and Well-being We will continue to encourage children to be independent and learn personal care practices. We will learn about different movements through dance activities and move like the animals in the book. We will also learn how to stay safe while travelling and how to stay healthy. The Humanities Our theme is the ‘Tren Mawr Glas’ therefore we will learn about how people travelled a long time ago and how trains have changed over the years. We will also look at different ways to travel to ensure we take care of our world e.g.. walking to school, cycling to the shop etc. Science and Technology In Science and Technology we will be building a ramp and will race different vehicles to see which is the fastest. We will also experiment with cars, trains etc to see which vehicles travel well on sand, grass and carpet. We will also build a train or train tracks out of wood, learning how to use simple tools safely. Expressive Arts Children will be able to use recycled resources to create a model of a train. We will also be doing craft work relating to Eisteddfod, Mother's Day, St Dwynwen and Easter. We look forward to having a busy and fun season with the children and thank you so much for your support.
