Welcome to Eaglets R

It is time to start our second half term – time goes so fast!  The children have settled in so well and we have had so many adventures already but there is so much more fun to come!  Our topic this half term is

Magical Mayhem!

We begin this half-term with Magic School.  The children will become apprentice wizards and use their imagination.  Creating potions, magic wands, inventing spells and going to the Magic shop!

We will move on to elves and fairies and other magical creatures and adventures.  We will really encourage children to use their imagination and create magical stories and worlds.

We will find out about the festival of Christmas.

Our focus books we will be sharing together will be - 

We will continue to explore the woodland area and talking about Autumn.  We will look at light and dark and about being nocturnal. We will sing nursery rhymes and learn simple poems.  We will paint, make music and use our imagination to make up stories and dances. We will be focusing on the school value of Respect, encouraging children to share, take turns, saying please and thank you and looking after our resources.

Every morning we have fun with Fred Frog practising and learning new sounds and words in the Read Write Inc sessions. With our Super Sonic listening skills we will be - Tuning in to sounds, listening and remembering sounds and talking about sounds.  Our superheroes will be taught to say and recognise initial letters sounds of words, moving onto Special Friends sounds - two letters that make one sound.

Following this we have communication time, when we listen to a story and answer questions about it.  We have Magic Maths, learning new mathematical knowledge in a fun way followed by book time and writing.   In the afternoon we have story time, rhyme time and Vocab Ninja! Each afternoon has a different focus - Re, Music, Woodland Adventures, P.E. Circle Time, Dance, Drawing Club, Our Wonderful World, Healthy Heroes, Create and Imagine and lots more!  Finishing off the day with Key Person time, where children have a chance to chat, have a healthy snack and to review the day's learning.  We learn in our inside and outside classroom in all weathers!

PE Day - Every Monday - We are focusing on functional motor skills in our PE lessons.  Running, jumping, hopping, throwing and catching.  We talk about the changes that happen to our bodies when we do exercise.

Outside Adventures - Every Wednesday - We like to investigate the environment around us including the woodland area on campus and our local environment.
