SUMMER TERM 2 TOPIC: Summer’s Here

Theme: The Farm

LITERACY:

Book Focus: Farmer Duck by Martin Wadell

The children enjoyed role playing aspects of the story and wrote letters to the lazy farmer from the perspective of the disgruntled duck. This week the children will create their own version of the story .

Group Phonics: This term we will focus on reading words and sentences containing all the phonemes the children have learnt throughout the year and we will be teaching strategies for instant blending of words and strategies for reading longer multisyllabic words.

UW – Knowledge and Understanding of the World : This week we will consider how farm animals are useful to us. [/dropshadowbox]
