Foundation Class Update

What a super week in Foundation! The children are doing amazingly well, and it is wonderful to see how hard they are working and the progress they are making.

Phonics

The children have been fantastic in phonics this week, and we have added four more sounds to our collection: f, l, h and e. They are trying so hard with their blending and are all showing great effort and determination. Well done, Foundation!

Topic – Autumn

This week, we have been exploring the season of autumn. We went outside to collect autumnal treasures and looked at how things change as the seasons change, including the colours of the leaves and the weather. We also explored the primary colours and experimented with mixing them together to create beautiful autumnal colours. We then used these colours to create our own leaf prints!

Maths

In maths, we have been focusing on the numbers 1, 2 and 3. The children have explored different ways to represent these numbers and have practised writing them. We also began looking at the concept of one more. We will explore this in greater depth next week, helping the children to develop their understanding of numbers and how they relate to one another.

Well done, Foundation, for another fantastic week of learning! You should all be very proud of yourselves.

Have a lovely weekend!

Many thanks,

Mr Thrift
