Hello, welcome to our Butterflies class page!
We hope you all had a wonderful Summer and are excited to start your new adventure in Foundation 2.
We are looking forward to an exciting year in Butterflies class. We are especially looking forward to watching the children grow in ability, skills and confidence! We are going to be making so many amazing memories that we can all treasure as we progress through the year!
Each half term we focus on a different topic to make sure we can fit in lots of exciting things throughout the year. Our topics for this year are ‘All About Me’, ‘Let’s Celebrate!’, ‘Once Upon a Time’ ‘Nature Explorers’, ‘On the Farm’ and ‘Commotion in the Ocean’
We really encourage our children to embrace our school values in everything they do. They will learn to be empathic, courageous, passionate, resilient and respectful.
Autumn 1
This term we are looking at the topic ‘All About Me’. We will be exploring and finding out all about the children’s interests and hobbies. We will also be looking at different families and talking about ‘Who is in your family?’.
We look forward to supporting and helping your child develop as they start their learning journey with us. We can’t wait to learn lots of new things and have lots of fun!
Miss Redmond and Mrs Crush.
Reading
The children will be receiving reading books from school and it is important that you read with them daily. This will help support their phonics knowledge and reading skills.
It is also important that you bring their book in their school book bag daily, so we can read with your child if required.
Your child’s book will be changed on a Friday.
We are also sending home some High Frequency Words. These are words that we encourage the children to learn by sight! Please help support them with learning them.
