Talk Through Stories
We have been reading Winnie and Wilbur by Valerie Thomas. Here is the vocabulary we have been learning:
Furious
Crawled
Ridiculous
Miserable
Gleaming
Decided
Hurrying
Please talk through these words at home, talk about what they mean in the context of the story. Use these words at home for example ‘I have decided to use green to colour in my picture’ or ‘the spoon is gleaming now that I have cleaned it’. You can model the sentence structures for your child and they can have a go at putting it into context.

Maths 2D Shapes
This week, we have been focusing on 2D Shapes.
“Providing children with a range of 3D shapes and objects, plus images of 2D shapes in different orientations, helped strengthen their understanding of the shapes and prompted them to start to describe the properties.”
What does the EYFs say about shapes?
Compose and decompose shapes so that children recognise a shape can have other shapes within it, just as numbers can. Teach use of language to describe 3D shapes e.g. solid, faces, edges, corners (vertices) & recognise the 2D shapes on their faces. Talk about and identify the patterns around them.
