SPRING TERM 1 TOPIC: Transport
LITERACY:
Book Focus: The NaughtyBus by Jan and Jerry Oke
The children will enjoy this delightful story about a little toy London bus which will stir their imagination as they explore their own ideas for where the bus could travel to next.
Phonics: This term the children will work in smaller groups to learn Phonics at the pace at which they are making progress. There will be 3 groups taught by different members of the Reception Team. Each of the groups will bring home different Phonics homework which matches their learning during group Phonics lessons.

• Skills for counting reliably with 10
