At St Peter's we have based our curriculum for the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) on much loved stories. Each half term we have a focus text that the children learn by heart and are able to re-tell independently. Stories are a huge part of the school day and our children have a love of books before they begin to read.
This half term our focus text is The Rainbow Fish. A story about kindness and sharing.
We will begin to learn letters and the sounds they make using our phonics programme Read Write Inc. Each week the children will bring home the letter sheets that they have learned at school to be able to practice at home.
In Maths we are looking at numbers 1 to 5. Matching number to quantity, counting, saying which number is one more and one less and sequencing events, such as what happens in a school day.
