This term Mrs. Lewis is looking forward to welcoming her new class. Our learning has a Humanities focus so we will be developing the children's sense of self, identity and belonging. We look forward to working with all our families.
This is an inquiry into:
Developing a sense of self, identity and belonging and being confident in who they are;
Recognising and celebrating diversity;
Understanding their rights and responsibilities as a citizen of Wales and the wider world;
Recognising the importance of creating a sustainable future for themselves and their local, national and global communities.
Learners will be developing empathy and decision making skills by understanding how their actions have consequences which will help them lead fulfilling lives as valued members of society.
Learners will develop a sense of place and cynefin by learning all about their local area, understanding who they are and celebrating diversity.
Learners will reflect upon the impact of their actions and the actions of others and use recyclable materials to design and create a product.
Learners will explore the natural world and
learn about their locality which will help them gain a sense of place and well-being.

We are learning to read and write using Jolly Phonics. Jolly Phonics uses the synthetic phonics method, which means that children are taught the letter sounds first, then are taught to blend sounds together to say / read / write words.
We use a variety of manipulatives for maths and problem solving in Cynhaeaf including Numicon, counters, pegs, objects and multilink.
