The Meadow class are now enjoying an exciting new curriculum that delivers learning through a range of sensory, purposeful play and experience-based activities. The sensory curriculum covers three topics per year. This year our topics are:

• Autumn term: Ourselves
• Spring term: Our school
• Summer term: Weather and seasons

This Autumn, we will learn all about ourselves (including emotions and what makes us unique), our families, animals including humans, our bodies, hygiene and exercise. Alongside this, key texts drive our learning and give us opportunities to read, write, learn new language and concepts, and experience the wider world.

Our first key text is:

• Five minutes' peace by Jill Murphy

Keep your eye out in your child's bag for the vocabulary cards linked to our key text or topic learning that come home each week. These cards are designed to be shared together daily and support understanding and language development. 

Our core word curriculum makes up a vital part of our learning in English.  Our core words for the next half term are (in order):

• Choose.
• Hungry
• Thirsty
• Toilet
• Hurt
• Poorly

Please support your child at home by learning some of the signs and modelling the words in context. the more opportunities children have to see, hear and use new language, the more learning takes place.
