Let's Explore it.

In the Let’s Explore project, your child will explore their class environment and school grounds so that they feel settled and happy in their new surroundings. They will learn about the local environment and find out about places they have visited on holiday. They will look at and create maps for journeys.

Supporting your child at home

• Use Google Earth to explore the locality.
• Go on a walk around your local community and talk about the things that you see.
• Encourage your child to talk about the activities they enjoy doing at school.
• Share and discuss the Did you know? resource.

  Puddles and Rainbows.

In the Puddles and Rainbows project, your child will learn about the weather associated with the season of spring. They will explore natural phenomena, including rainbows, clouds, rain and wind. They will explore colours found in the natural environment and learn how to mix primary colours to make new colours.

Supporting your child at home
