In Foxes we are following the Extended Impact Curriculum where we are learning through sensory and practical activities. These are always fun for the children and it helps them remember what they have learnt. We also follow a nurture program which means we socialize with our friends, take in turns sharing puzzles, sing songs, yoga, dough disco and lots of sensory activities to improve our fine motor skills This helps our well-being throughout our busy day.

All children are rewarded for all their efforts throughout the week with some choose time of a reward for their choice, on a Friday afternoon we have a fun activity to support all our skills we have learnt all week.
As you can see we have a bright colourful classroom to help with our learning and to make it a happy place to be.

During Term 1 we will be learning more about me and my family these will link to our class stories My Funny Family. Throughout this term we will also be focusing on our emotions to continue with our well-being theme. We will be looking at other areas to support our individual needs and targets. In Math’s we will be looking at Place Value, Subtraction and adding. During our English we will be focusing on comprehension in our English stories and reading as part of our guided reading section. We will focus on our Phonics and sounds to support our reading and not forgetting all the creativity for our art to support out talented crafts to make the story come to life. This term we will be taking part in our PE lessons which will look at winter sports. During our science we will be looking at experiments to see how things work. PSHE will be a cross curricular activity and some extra support throughout the term when required. We will cover areas like know the benefits of exercise, know what a healthy meal looks like and how to make a healthy meal, importance of sleep, safe hygiene routines and money saving and spending, Again these all link to all our cross curricular activites.
