EYFS Knowledge Organiser - Summer Time

Ash and Beech children had a fantastic time exploring the farm last week, they had opportunities to meet all the animals, and learnt first-hand about where our food comes from!

We have also been learning...

What did they grow at Hyde Hall farm

We have spent the week recalling what foods were made from crops or animals at the farm. (And seeing if we can remember Farmer Ben's recipe for making homemade bread and butter!)

Brilliant Handwriting & Independent Writing

We have continued to focus on our handwriting alongside our sentence writing this week. The children are gaining confidence to go back and re-check their work and make sure it is correct, focusing on formation and the structure of their sentences!

We have also spent time re-capping our tricky words that we have learnt so far in Reception.

Maths

Our budding mathematicians done a great job exploring and comparing numbers! Using number tracks, the children practised spotting exactly where different numbers sit and used this to notice which numbers are 'more' or 'fewer'. We have been consolidating this understanding through playing 'race to 10'!

We will be assessing children to see if they have met their Early Learning Goals which form part of their final EYFS report before they move into Year One and start the National Curriculum. This is done by observing your child’s interactions in play and the work they do in class with teachers. They do not participate in any formal assessments. Please find a document below which shows the ELG statements the teachers will use to assess your child. Please feel free to talk to your class teacher about these if you have any concerns.

Whole School Home Learning:

National Year of Reading Home Learning

Home Learning - 12th June

Phonics - The children have now learnt all Phase 2, 3 & 4 tricky words. These have been sent home across the year as the children have learnt them. Please continue to ensure you practice these alongside your child's reading book. Your child needs to be able to recognise these in their books by sight and when shown the flashcard.

Please use the homework sheet to practise reading our phase 4 words and sentences.

Maths - Please use pages 5 and 6 in the booklet sent home to support your child in recalling how to place numbers on their number tracks / numberlines. Encourage them to use comparative language (more / less) to explain where numbers should be placed.

Reading - Please sign your child's reading record each time you hear your child read.
