This term we have been working really hard to deepen our Maths understanding around Spatial Language, Shape, and Size.

As we move away from 'Ella's Rainbow' in Story Steps, we have been introduced to a new and exciting story called 'Storm on the Farm'. 

Story Steps continues to be present within our weekly timetable as it allows us to continue to act out immersive story adventures as a class. It also helps to create a collaborative atmosphere as we help each other to descibe the story cards provided by each story.

During our Summer Term we are focusing on Tennis within our weekly PE sessions.

Tennis helps us to stengthen our hand - eye co - ordination skills as we learn how to balance the balloon or shuttlecock on the racket whilst moving around the PE hall.

Tennis also helps to build our resilence and to develop our awareness to never give up!

Our favourite activites to do during busy time!

As we strenghten our English knowledge throughout the SummerTerm, we are continuing to work on composing our own setences independently. As well as looking closely at our letter formation and improving our fine motor skills.
