We have 3 EYFS classes at Fleetdown Primary Academy. Parrotfish Class is taught by Mrs Hothi, Neonfish Class by Miss Harris and Rainbowfish Class by Miss Young. We are very lucky to be supported by an awesome group of adults including Mrs Johnson (HLTA), Miss Featherbee, Mrs Dehal, Mrs Webb and Mrs Ould.

EYFS - Term 3

We have many lovely weeks planned this Term to give our children rich and exciting Learning opportunities. We will be starting our term with looking at the children’s favorite stories and getting the children to dress up as their favourite story book characters. We are also looking forward to welcoming in our parents and carers later in the term to share their jobs with the children, we know that the children are all immensely proud of their amazing, hard-working parents. We will also be experimenting in class looking at different experiments and how materials are used and can be changed. 

Many celebrations will be taking place this term and we are looking forward to immersing the children in these cultural experiences. As part of our Chinese New Year celebrations, we will be having a ‘Chinese Dragon Dance Workshop’ and tasting some different Chinese foods such as prawn crackers and noodles. We will also be looking at Valentine's Day with our children as well as E-Safety and how the children can keep safe at home.  

In Maths, the children will be working with numbers up to ten and will be looking at addition and subtraction within ten as well as their number bonds to ten, e.g., 6 + 4 = 10. 

We will continue with Read, Write Inc in our smaller groups and will be focusing on set two sounds and blending and reading simple three and four letter words. Please continue to practice this with your child at home. 

Thank you for all your continued support and we look forward to sharing our learning with you on Class Dojo and on Tapestry.
