Our Learning

In FS1 we learn through play and love to explore our learning environment both inside and outside. We are creative and learn together with our friends in imaginative ways.

Here are some of the things we have been doing:

Our big question...

Who am I?

We will be looking at ourselves and what makes us special. We will be exploring our similarities and differences and celebrating how amazing we all are!

The children will be exploring this big question through all areas of our curriculum. Here are some of our exciting activities:

Reading stories about families- Which story is your favourite? 

Looking at different families- who is in your family?

Making friends with each other- what makes your friends special?

The Way The Truth and The Life

God's wonderful world

In RE we will be talking about the amazing world around us and how God created it. We will be looking at the flowers, plants and animals and understanding that God created them all for us and learning how to take care of the wonderful world He has given us.

Stories

We love to share stories in FS1 and the children enjoy choosing their own books and spending time in our reading den. We read stories together every day as a class and the children vote for which story they would like to read each morning. The children also take home a book to share with their families. This half term our story time books will include:

Nursery Rhymes

We sing nursery rhymes every day in FS1 and the children all have their favourite rhyme! We always join in with different actions and sometimes even add in our own verses. Here are some of the rhymes we will be learning this half term:

Mathematics

We will be learning to count to 10 in order and begin to show the correct number on their fingers and by making marks on paper. We will also be looking for different shapes in the world around us.
