Our Class Timetable

Literacy & Numeracy

Children will take turns to choose our end-of-the-day story from the reading area. They will be encouraged to select their favourite book and share why they have chosen it, helping to build confidence and a love of storytelling.

Our Curriculum Intentions & Learning Journey

This half term, we will be exploring lots of exciting topics together! During Autumn 1 term, we will be learning all about ourselves, our bodies and the world around us. Children will explore their five senses, body parts, movement and how they have grown and changed. We will discover where our food comes from, learn about Harvest, investigate the signs of autumn and explore seasonal treasures. We will also develop our computing skills and finish by making delicious pumpkin soup!

Our enquiry question for Autumn Term 1 is: What do I know about me?
