In Mathematics this term we will be continuing to count, read and write numbers to 100! This will include number bonds to 20. We will also be working on addition and subtraction and basic multiplication and division. During our lessons on measurement we will look at capacity and mass/weight. In shape we will continue to cover 2D and 3D shapes and finding half and quarter of these shapes. In geometry we will be looking at direction and full, half and quarter turns. Some of this work will link to half past and quarter past times on an analogue clock.

In Phonics we will be continuing to practise all the graphemes and high-frequency words we have learnt so far. We will be learning different pronunciations of some graphemes and alternative spellings of phonemes. We will also be practising reading real & nonsense words using our phonic skills so we are ready for the Year One Phonics Check in June 2018.
