Week Beginning 13th May 2024.

We have had a fantastic week in EYFS! This week, we have finished creating our information posters about 'people who help us'; they look amazing!. Since the sun was shining, we decided to plant some seeds, so we could watch them grow over the next term. We also enjoyed starting 'Drawing Club' in the afternoons. 

Worship theme of the week:

Giving and Receiving

Hebrews 13:16 

Do not neglect to do good and to share what you have, for such sacrifices are pleasing to God. 

Curriculum this week:  

Please note that our curriculum overview for this term is at the bottom of the page.

• In English, we will be writing thank you letters to both the RNLI and Dorset and Wiltshire Fire and Rescue for visiting us. 

• In Maths, we will be continuing to look at subtraction and how to subtract amounts. 

• In Phonics, we will be looking at 'air', 'ure', and 'er'. 

Word of the week:

Our word of the week for this week is 'materials'. Please explore the words' meaning at home. 

Homework:

Please note that this term's project homework is at the bottom of this page. In addition to this, please continue to practise the word walls.

Reading:

We would love to see the children in EYFS using their extra time at home to read some brilliant books. If children read three times at home, they get a raffle ticket. Please, therefore, keep a quick record in reading logs – your children can write the title in to help! We would also like to encourage children to bring their reading records into school every day.

Coming up:

• Our Library and PE day is on a Wednesday. 
• Visit to Southbourne Library- 7th May, 9th May, 14th May.

Many thanks for all of your support,

Miss Daw & Miss Wingate
