🕷🕸... This week we are talking about spiders! 

We will be exploring these big idea questions:

• Why do Spiders spin webs?
• How many legs do spiders have? (Spiders are not classed as an insect because all insects have 6 legs!) 
• What is a predator?

We will be sharing these brilliant books to help bring our topic to life:

 

 

And of course singing and signing to these classic nursery rhymes: 

 

 

This week, the children in F2 are learning about 3D shapes and their properties. We will look at the shapes - cube, cylinder, cone, cuboid, pyramid, sphere.

We will be going on a 3D shape hunt in the classroom and seeing what we can find... Maybe boxes that are cuboids, a globe that is a sphere and dice that were cubes! Here are some ideas to support this learning at home - we would love to see what you get up to on tapestry! 

• We are hoping to be able to book our 'Lion Learners' animal experience for Wednesday 26th March - to make this experience possible we are asking for £5 contribution per child (to be made on Arbor please).  See this Lion Learners blog post for more information.
• (F2) The children are doing amazingly with their phonics - please make sure they are reading their RWI books or practising their blending book/speed sounds at home too. The school expectation is at least three diary entries a week (this can include sharing stories together too and visits to the Reading Lair). Keep up the super work F2!
