Children will explore the world of rhyming words, building their confidence with phonics and guiding them on their journey to becoming phonics pros and future poets!
Children explore the winter woodland, learning the difference between fact and opinion. Can they use their newfound knowledge to stop any arguments forming between some very opinionated animals?
The way a child holds their pencil can impact the speed at which they can write. Children take a day out to the zoo to see all the cheeky animals. These animals guide the children through their perfect letter formation.
