This year, our class will be working hard to cover the curriculum through a variety of engaging and effective approaches. We believe that learning should be active and enjoyable, so we’ll be using play, hands-on activities, group work, and creative tasks to help children explore and understand new concepts. Our aim is to create a positive, supportive environment where every child can thrive, grow in confidence, and reach their full potential.
We’ve begun our art curriculum this term with a focus on landscapes, helping children learn how to observe and draw them with accurate proportions. This not only builds foundational drawing skills but also strengthens their attention to detail, spatial awareness, and patience. By learning to see the world more carefully, children develop both their artistic abilities and critical thinking skills—setting them up for success in art and beyond.
We’ve launched our maths curriculum this term with a focus on number and operations, using a playful, hands-on approach to support learning. Children have been exploring number identification, addition, and multiplication through fun activities like dart board games, which make abstract concepts more engaging and meaningful. This approach helps build confidence, improves mental maths skills, and encourages a positive attitude towards learning maths in an enjoyable and memorable way.
