Summer 2 - Growing

We will learn about human, animal and plant lifecycles and explore different animal habitats as part of our ‘Growing’ topic. We will retell the story of ‘The Very Hungry Caterpillar’ and write our own ending to ‘Jasper’s Beanstalk’.  We will also explore some non-fiction texts related to animal habitats and lifecycles. We will also have some special visitors arrive in our classroom who will help us understand the lifecycle of a butterfly right before our eyes!

Please see the curriculum booklet for further information about the curriculum coverage for Summer 2. 

 

Physical Development

Physical Development in the Foundation Stage is taught across the curriculum and throughout our indoor and outdoor provision. Children enjoy free-flow access to indoor/outdoor facilities all day. They also have 2 designated PE sessions each week which will focus on the skills of balance, object control and stability. We work hard to develop fine and gross motor skills so that children grow to be strong and well coordinated individuals.

PE days

Tuesday - outdoor PE

Friday - indoor PE

Please come to school in your PE kit on these days. For indoor PE shorts are required - please wear them underneath your joggers or bring them in your bag to change into. Children will need to have the correct clothing in order to take part.  Please ensure children are dressed appropriately for the weather conditions when doing outdoor PE! Please ensure long hair is tied back and all jewellery is removed as children will not be able to take part in the lesson if they are wearing jewellery.
