In Spring term, our unit of inquiry is:
What Changes do we see around us?
Key Concepts: Materials, Change, Growth, living things
Please join our Facebook group for updates and information
This term Mrs Lewis is looking forward to teaching the children all about changes. Our learning has a Science focus so we will be developing the children's knowledge of materials and understanding of changes. We look forward to working with all our families.
This is an inquiry into:
Recognising the properties of materials and how these can be mixed together to create something new;
Identifying changes in my daily life ie day and night, daily routines, weather, seasons;
Observing and describing how plants grow and what they need to grow;
Exploring how forces can lead to change.
Learners will begin to communicate their knowledge with others and share their experiences.
Learners will begin to share their knowledge of the world around them.
Learners will express their ideas when exploring changes in their daily life.
Learners will be developing their confidence by taking part in a performance.

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.
