Welcome to Ash Class!​​

Our Class Teachers are ​Mrs Stradling and Mrs Carter.

Miss Dare supports our class throughout the week.

Ash Class is where our EYFS (Reception) children learn all about school life and enjoy exploring and playing. Mrs Carter teaches at the beginning of the week and Mrs Stradling teaches at the end of the week.  We are very lucky to have the support of Miss Dare every day of the week!

During the Spring term, we will be continuing to develop awareness of ourselves, skills for working as a team and strategies to help us to keep calm.

Our journey with our phonics is increasing, and we will be continuing to learn all about the Phase 3 digraphs and trigraphs, using Unlocking Letters and Sounds. This will support our reading and writing skills.  Throughout each day we will immerse ourselves in a variety of worlds and contexts through a lovely range of books. These will include Grandma Bird, We're Going on a Lion Hunt and Flip Flap Safari.

In Maths, we will continue learning all about the numbers to 10 in different representations, including Rekenreks, Ten Frames and Base 10. We will also continue to learn about the different bonds for numbers to 5, and then to 10. 

Our focus this term during our afternoon sessions will be on Understanding the World, where we will learn all about the world in which we live, beginning with our homes. We will also think about how the seasons are changing and develop an understanding of floating and sinking, linked to our story 'The Boy Who Sailed the World.'

It is going to be so much fun! 

Our PE day is on Tuesday during the Spring Term with Yeovil Town Football Club.  In addition to this, during Spring 1, we will be having yoga on a Wednesday.   Our time to explore the Forest School area is also on Wednesday when children are also expected to wear PE kit.

Our Christian Values for this term are:

Spring 1: Perseverance

Spring 2: Justice

Best wishes,

The Ash Class Team
