Nursery Autumn 2
What we are learning this term.
Literacy
This half-term, we will be exploring the story 'The Tiger Who Came to Tea by Judith Kerr. We will be using this fantastic book to inspire our learning in varied ways — from storytelling and role-playing to creative art, drawing characters, setting up tea parties, and creating story maps.
Maths
In Maths, learning this half-term will focus on developing children's understanding of time. The children will deepen their knowledge of the composition of numbers up to five. Moreover, they will enhance their recognition and use of 2D shapes and positional language through practical and play-based activities.
Phonics
In phonics, we will introduce phase 2 of phonics. Children will begin to learn the sounds of individual letters. These sounds are foundational for building words and reading fluency.
Science
In Science, we will learn about materials and how they can be changed. They will investigate the properties of various materials, make predictions, and observe what happens when materials are mixed, cooled or heated. There will be varied opportunities that will develop children's curiosity, scientific thinking, and vocabulary related to materials and change.
PE
PE sessions will be held every Tuesday. The children will engage in activities that develop essential team play skills, ball skills, and physical coordination. Please ensure your child wears an appropriate PE kit on Tuesdays. Please ensure children have spare clothes in their bags if they have an accident.
