Literacy | Please read with me, sing with me, highlight and point out logos and images I see regularly. | This half term we will be looking at two books by the Author Julia Donaldson. We will read The Gruffalo as this will be linked to our topic of Autumn and then we will read Stickman as we move towards Christmas.
We will continue with our phonics sessions and our listening and attention activities.
We will also be starting our core vocabulary curriculum, learning the first 40 words children need for communication. We will see it, sign it, say it and find it on our core communication boards, whichever is most appropriate for each individual child.

Maths | We can look at different amounts of objects together, talk to me about more, less, same and different. Have lots of fun with me using number in everyday situations, even when getting dressed! | We will be using the White Rose Maths programme in maths exploring pattern, grouping and sorting, position and numerical order. |
Personal development | When I am showing different emotions you can help label them for me “I think you are feeling happy, I can see your smile”. | We will continue our class routines, which we are really getting used to now. We will continue Attention Autism sessions as this helps us with attending to all our other learning times.
We will continue to explore our emotions and what makes us happy and sad and what we can do when we feel these emotions.
We will continue to play and explore alongside each other building our friendships in class.

The World | When we are out and about let’s pause and look around, how have the trees changed? Are the leaves falling? Maybe we can go on an autumn walk and find conkers or acorns. | We will be looking at Autumn and the weather, how has the world around us changed, what things can we find now it is Autumn. We will look at British autumnal animals such as squirrels, foxes, hedgehogs, badgers and bats. We will find out where they live and what they eat.
We may even have the opportunity to go for some walks in the woods.

Physical Development
