Welcome to Tadpoles!
‘Play is the only way the highest intelligence of humankind can unfold.’ Joseph Chilton Pearce

Our topic this half term is ‘Superheros and Spring‘. This will give us the opportunity to learn all about Superheros and how they are indeed super. We will focus on Supertato as our main text and also focus on other texts too. In addition, we will also focus on the initial sounds in words whilst continuing to learn our Set 1 sounds (m, a, s, d, t, p, i, n). We will also look at rhyming words and try and spot other words that rhyme too. In order to develop our little hands and fine motor control, we will get funky and move in time to the music using playdough.
In Maths, we will focus on problem solving with numbers up to 5; learn all about 2D shapes; compare size and weight; extend and create patterns as well as use language such as ‘more than’ and ‘fewer than’.
Every morning, we sing our favourite ‘Good Morning’ song. If you would like to practise at home, then please follow the link.
