Welocme back, I hope you have all had a lovely break and half term holiday and are ready for another fun-filled term leading up to.....Christmas!!

We have lots of lovely things planned and we are going to be busy bees in Class 3!

This week, we will be learning about Guy Fawkes and the gunpowder plot.

Language, Literacy and Communcation

Read and explore the story. 

Look at features of a 'wanted' poster and design one to help catch Guy Fawkes.

RWI

Mathematical Development

We are continuing to practise counting in 5s and counting on in 1s to a given number to 100. Finding 1 more/less than a number to 20.

We will be recapping all of our number bonds and doubles to 10/100 to ensure the children are confident to recall them before introducing our next new learn-it.

Describe, reproduce and extend colour and shape patterns with Autumn leaves.

Other areas of learning

We will be using a range of tools and materials to create our own firework pictures both in and outdoors.

We will also be using a paint and publish programme on the computer to create firework pictures and type words to describe them.

PSE - We will be working together as a team to make a Guy for the bonfire.

Welsh

This term we will be focussing on 'y tywydd' the weather and 'dillad' clothing

Some of the phrases to practise are:

Sut mae'r tywydd heddiw?               What is the weather like today?

Mae hi'n....... ac yn....                     It is.....and...

heulog                                           sunny

bwrw glaw                                     raining

wyntog                                          windy

stormus                                         stormy

bwrw eira                                      snowing

braf                                               fine

ddiflas                                          miserable

oer                                               cold

There's a fantastic website which we use to help practise a range of welsh words and language patterns. Have a look together at home, see if you can find the stories/activities to practise the weather:

Wellies
We will be continuing to look at features of Autumn down in our woodland area this week. Please can you ensure you child has a pair of wellies and suitable coat in school as it can be quite wet and muddy.

Thank you for your continued support.

Diolch yn Fawr
