Historical, geographical and social understanding
We will focus on talking about our

books by the author ‘Mini Grey’,
starting with a book called ‘Traction
Man’. We will create our own story
about an adventure for Traction Man.
We will then compare other books by
this author. We will have a toy shop
role play area with speaking and
listening, writing and money
opportunities. This term we will focus
on handwriting and presentation skills
in books.

success:
We will study Toys: when they were invented, where they
were made and talk about some of our favourite toys during
‘Show and Tell’.

about how they will move.
We will compare objects and practise writing our results
down as Scientists.
Using ICT
Religious Education
Using Active Learn to enhance our
phonics knowledge and developing
our mathematical knowledge through
Mathletics.
We will be looking at special
people in our lives and why
they are special to us.
We will begin to look at how
computer games are programmed and
how we could use coding.
We will use maps to locate where we live, the countries
where our toys come from and which continent the country
belongs to.
